Mixed adult flies, knocked down with CO2 and collected 3-5 days post emergence and feeding on citrated bovine blood-soaked cotton pad atop large screened cages. Reference pesticide susceptible colony inbred on citrated bovine blood since 1961 without addition of new flies. Flies originally brought in from field population in 1961 and adapted to rearing in screened cages, feeding on cotton pads soaked with citrated bovine blood. Entire life cycle is devoid of bovine host.
