| English abstract | An insecticide fumigant canister based on synthetic pyrethroids and dichlorvos was employed against cockroaches and ants which were invading an insectarium used for rearing triatominae. After removal of the Triatominae, the canister was activated and found to kill all the invading insects within 48 hours. Possible residual action against triatomines was then monitored by a 24-hour exposure of eggs, nymphs and adults of Triatoma infestans, Panstrongylus megistus and Rhodnius neglectus in the treated insectarium. No ovicidal action was observed but some mortality of adults and nymphs of the three species was observed up to 72 hours after the fumigation |

Retirados os triatomíneos durante a aplicação, o produto mostrou-se muito eficiente contra os insetos invasores, eliminando-os completamente em 48 horas. Monitorando-se a ação triatomicida através de frascos sentinelas com adultos, ninfas e ovos de Triatoma infestans, Panstrongylus megistus e Rhodnius neglectus, não se observou ação ovicida, mas sobre os adultos e ninfas até pelo menos 72 horas após a fumigação, no recinto fechado |
