Abstract
Chagas' disease transmission can be interrupted by control of domestic triatomine vectors. In the short term, control will continue to rely on spraying infested houses with residual insecticides although, as longer-term development objectives are reached, house improvement will become more important. There is no real technical barrier to Chagas' disease vector control, but problems remain in terms of optimizing the cost effectiveness of strategies for each endemic situation.
