<i>Triatoma infestans</i> mortality results of the field assays in rural houses.

a At the end of the experiment, data was collected in 8 out of the 13 houses initially selected, because some of them were dismantled and others reconditioned. b Calculated as the number of insects dead by fungi/number of total insects detected (dead and alive) at the end of the experiment × 100. Insects counted as dead correspond to those already dead at the collection time and insects caught alive (but already infected), that died during the 40 day-evaluation period.
