Monitoring house reinfestation by vectors of Chagas disease: a comparative trial of detection methods during a four-year follow-up.

Abstract：

:Domestic reinfestations by triatomine bugs were monitored after application of deltamethrin and apparent elimination of Triatoma infestans in Amama and other nearby rural villages, north-west Argentina, from 1992 to 1996. The five methods used were sensor boxes, sheets of pink typing-paper, timed manual catches by a skilled three-person team aided by a flushing-out agent, collections by house-dwellers, and knockdown using insecticide fumigant canisters. In bedrooms, house-dwellers collected T. infestans significantly more frequently than the flushing-out method, but the reverse occurred in peridomestic sites. Both methods and sensor boxes revealed the frequent invasion of adult Triatoma guasayana and T. infestans, but neither T. guasayana nor Triatoma sordida colonized bedroom areas in spite of their rising abundance in nearby peridomestic sites. Sensor boxes were significantly more sensitive than the matched paper-sheets in three of five cross-sectional surveys. On average, each box recorded 2.0-3.2 times more triatomine fecal smears than each paper sheet. The frequency of dejecta in sensor boxes correlated positively with the proportion of houses where T. infestans, T. guasayana or T. sordida were captured by any method in bedroom areas. Triatomine fecal smears in sensor boxes were the earliest and most frequent sign of domiciliary infestation, followed by dwellers' collections of adult bugs. Analyzing the data prospectively, we provide a quantitative, predictive understanding of detection methods and review the validity and interpretation of the different signs of infestation obtained. The most sensitive and cost-effective combination of detection methods for vector surveillance in domestic areas was the use of sensor boxes and house-dwellers collections.
