Abstract:

Abstract. In mud‐and‐thatch houses of Santiago del Estero Province, northwest Argentina, where no insecticides had been sprayed officially to control domestic infestations of the Chagas disease vector Triatoma infestans (Klug) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), two knockdown (KD) insecticidal collection procedures were compared with the standard flush‐out (FO) method for sampling T. infestans. Bugs were collected by FO using 0.2% tetramethrin in bedrooms of (1) 41 houses of Amama village employing 1 man‐hour of capture effort per house, and (2) 19 houses of Trinidad and Mercedes villages employing 4 man‐hours/house. From the same houses, 2‐5 days after the manual FO collection, bugs were collected by KD indoor‐spraying of deltamethrin 25mga.i./m2 in Amama, or burning of one γ‐HCH (=γ‐BHC) fumigant tablet 3.1g of γ‐isomer) per bedroom in Trinidad and Mercedes. The majority of infestations were detected by both methods, the proportion of positive houses being 81% at Amama and 95% at the other villages. Although the FO method was more sensitive, at least because it was applied first, the KD method detected infestations in 25% of houses where bugs were not found by FO. Bug densities estimated by FO or by subsequent KD in each house were significantly correlated: r = 0.795 for deltamethrin; r= 0.882 for y‐HCH. Compared with FO collections of T.infestans large stages, i.e. adults plus fourth and fifth instar nymphs, the KD catch averaged 0.88x with deltamethrin and 0.57× with γ‐HCH, regardless of the apparent population density of bugs per house. However, the KD method has practical advantages of speed and standardization. Copyright © 1993, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
