Dynamics of feeding and defecation behavior of Triatoma infestans hybrids.

abstract：:Leishmaniasis is a public health problem that has been increasing year by year, with the further difficulty that an efficient control system is not available. Therefore, it is necessary to search for less contaminating and dangerous alternatives for controlling Leishmania transmitting sandflies. The purpose of this st...
