Abstract: Different light-traps were tested in Wenxian of Gansu Province， including the light-traps without lamp and with glucose solution as attractant. Results showed that the light-traps attracted more mosquitoes and other insects than sandflies， and it became difficult to pick up the sandflies from gathering packet; the light-trap without lamp captured smaller amount of sandflies but much less other insects; glucose showed no significant effect in attracting sandflies. The existing light-traps are not so effective for Phlebotomus surveillance， and it is suggested that more effective attractants be tried.

Key words: Leishmaniasis, Sandfly, Surveillance, Light-trap
