Evaluation of spatially targeted strategies to control non-domiciliated Triatoma dimidiata vector of Chagas disease.
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease is a major neglected tropical disease with deep socio-economical effects throughout Central and South America. Vector control programs have consistently reduced domestic populations of triatomine vectors, but non-domiciliated vectors still have to be controlled efficiently...
