Tsetse flies primarily infest sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in countries such as Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Angola. They thrive in rural areas with dense vegetation near water sources, where they are vectors for diseases like sleeping sickness in humans and Nagana in livestock. Their presence is a significant concern for agriculture and public health in these regions.
