| Abstract: | An inexpensive ‘vigilance unit’ consisting of a cardboard box and attached plastic bag is described. This is utilized to provide two ways of detecting residual triatomine bugs present after an insecticide control programme in Brazil. How well it works will depend on the householders' enthusiasm to participate in the vigilance measures suggested by the control personnel. |
