[Operational aspects of Triatoma brasiliensis control].

Cadernos de saude publica, 2001
Vector control strategies against indigenous species is not easy, due to their capacity to reinvade treated premises from sylvatic ecotopes. Between August 1996 and December 1997 we conducted a study on reinfestation of houses after spraying in a county in the State of Ceará. Of 277 houses examined, 113 (40.8%) were infested (21.7% intradomiciliary and

[Microclimatic properties of the Triatoma brasiliensis habitat].

Cadernos de saude publica, 2001
Vector-borne transmission of Chagas disease in Northeast Brazil is basically by Triatoma brasiliensis. It is thus crucial to determine this species' microclimatic preferences as limiting factors for its distribution and ability to infest domestic environments.
