Tsetse distribution, trypanosome infection rates, and small-holder livestock producers' capacity enhancement for sustainable tsetse and trypanosomiasis control in Busia, Kenya.

Our findings revealed the existence of trypanosome-infected tsetse flies which could potentially spread to other parts of the county. Training of small-holder livestock producers in tsetse and trypanosomiasis control activities should be supported and integrated in the county animal health and veterinary services. Given the observed low tsetse densities and trypanosome infection rates, the elimination of trypanosomiasis in Busia county is feasible.
