Trapping sylvatic Triatominae (Reduviidae) in hollow trees [PDF]
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1999 This work reports the trial of a very simple trapping system (comprising small plastic bottles (9 X 6 cm) covered with double coated adhesive tape and containing a mouse as bait ) to collect all instars of triatomines in hollow trees, a favourable ecotope for many triatomine species including T. sordida, T. guasayana, and T. infestans 'dark morphs'
