ABSTRACT.
During an exploratory fieldtrip along the peninsula of Baja California, Mexico, we used mice-baited traps in search of Triatominae, the vectors of Chagas disease. A total of 433 traps were set in five localities following a latitude gradient along the peninsula. Triatominae were caught in rocky ecotopes in two localities. The specimens were identified as Paratriatoma hirsuta in the first locality, and Dipetalogaster maxima in the second, in accordance with the reported distributions of these species. The overall trap success was 3.1%, with an average of 1.3 bugs per positive trap. In the site with most bugs collected, trap success was 26.8%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that mice-baited traps have been used in this geographic area to collect Triatominae bugs. This short report confirms the usefulness of this trapping system when standardized protocols are needed.
