Tsetse-fly near Chihinga, Mashonaland, July, 1884, — 

 " The Tsetse-fly abounds in these parts, consequently 

 cattle and horses are unknown. Poultry of small size 

 seem to do well. The native women dry quantities of the 

 ' Tsetse-fly and pulverise it with the bark of a root, and 

 mixing it with water give it to the young animals, such as 

 dogs and goats or sheep, of which they have very few, 

 seemingly only kept as pets."
