Abstract
⺠Phlebotomine sand flies advance flying close to the ground. ⺠Sand flies proceed upwards flying close to vertical surfaces. ⺠On vertical mesh barriers sand flies behave like they do on walls. ⺠Insecticide-sprayed walls or nets should be effective at controlling sand flies approaching human habitation.
