Triatoma dimidiata is a vector of the hemoparasite Trypanosoma cruzi, the causal agent of
Chagas disease. It settles reproductive colonies in the peridomicile of the premises. The …

The subfamily Triatominae includes a group of hematophagous insects, vectors of the
parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which is the etiological agent of Chagas disease, also known …

The control of triatomine vectors of Chagas disease is mainly based on the use of pyrethroid
insecticides. Because chemical control is the primary method for managing these insects, it …

Chagas disease is a potentially life-threatening illness caused by the protozoan
Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted, mainly, by hematophagous insects of the Triatominae …

Chagas disease is a zoonosis caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by
insect vectors to several mammals, but little is known about its spatial epidemiology. We …

Background Triatomine bugs are responsible for the vectorial transmission of the parasite
Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas disease, a zoonosis affecting 10 million …

Background For several years, the wild populations of Triatoma infestans, main vector of
Trypanosoma cruzi causing Chagas disease, have been considered or suspected of being a …

The introduction of the HIV aspartic peptidase inhibitors (HIV-PIs) has revolutionized the
