Number of peridomestic structures, and the household number of dogs or cats were identified and the benefit of such an approach is that its control can be carried out at the household levei, The seropositivity rate among children ages 5-14 in high-risk habitais was 36.4%, whereas in low risk habitat it was 7.7%, This ditYerence is striking for an undemic community with no prior experience of Chagas' disease control ínterventions |
