Rhodnius prolixus


Rhodnius prolixus, the tropical bedbug, is a blood-feeding insect found in Central and South America. It is a primary vector of Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. R. prolixus feeds on the blood of mammals, including humans, and its bites can lead to itching and secondary infections. Control measures include improving housing conditions, using insecticides, and implementing vector control programs to reduce disease transmission.
