The policies above can be shaped to PH needs at the county or state
level according to human host, vertebrate reservoir, and sand fly and triatomid
interactions. The epidemiology or the revelation of disease transmission depends on
learning the reservoir hosts, especially ones like dogs and cats, and the insect vectors
as well as the life cycles of these protozoan parasites. To stop transmission requires: a)
determination and b) technical supplementation. The
insecticides sprayed or used as fumigants are most effective against household triatomids
include lambdacyhalothrin, then alfa-cypermethrin, cyfluthrin and deltamethrin.
Insecticides and methods of application must vary considerably according to the vector and
also the community ecology like savana or woods. |
