Differences of susceptibility of five triatomine species to pyrethroid insecticides - implications for Chagas disease vector control
As pyrethroids are presently the favored group of insecticides to control triatomines, we performed a series of bioassays to determine the intrinsic activity of some of the main compounds used in the control campaigns, against five of the main species of triatomines to be controlled. Comparing the i...
