Two prototypes of sensing devices for detecting peridomestic populations of Triatoma infestans Klug were tested in paired trials with bamboo canes in Amamá and nearby rural villages under triatomine surveillance. In infested peridomestic structures housing domestic animals, 1-2 pairs of numbered devices were placed per test site, left for 3-9 nights, and inspected for evidence of infestation. Prototype A was a black plastic cylinder 19 cm high and 10 cm diameter, with a screw cap on the top, 2 openings in the bottom, and a removable central structure made of resistant plastic coated with leather. Prototype B had square leather pieces rolled into cylinders instead of the central structure. Prototype A was significantly more sensitive than the bamboo cane with pleated paper inside in 13 test sites in which 20 pairs were tried. In a smaller series involving 7 pairs, prototype B also detected infestations more frequently than the cane. Triatomine feces were the signs most frequently recorded by both prototypes, whereas the bamboo canes recorded no feces. Ten T. infestans and 1 Triatoma guasayana Wygodzinsky & Avalos were collected from the prototypes placed on the ground or walls, not beneath the thatched roofs of the animal shelters, whereas only 3 T. infestans were collected from the canes. This study describes an effective sensing device for detecting T. infestans populations in outdoor animal shelters and provides quantitative field data on its performance.
