NOYA, Yessenia et al. Biological control of vectors of Chagas disease with Microhymenopters (Micro Wasps). Rev.Cs.Farm. y Bioq [online]. 2019, vol.7, n.2, pp.85-94. ISSN 2310-0265.

Abstract The motivation of the present biblio-graphic review, arose from the finding of an uninhabited house infested by wasp hives in the community of Huayhuasi of the Municipal ity of Mecapaca, when activities were be-ing carried out for the practice of Molecular Epidemiology of Chagas disease. The house had a history of the presence of vinchucas, the main vectors of Chagas disease. In the review on the topic kissing vs. wasps it was found that microavispas particularly of the genus Telenomus are known as endophagic parasites of eggs of some Triatominae. With the present work of bibliographic revision intends to obtain knowledge of biological interest on the microavispas as parasites of the eggs of some Triatominae that transmit the Chagas disease and its application in the possible biological control and even more so when these natural enemies surely contribute to the regulation of the population in nature, where parasitoids and hosts have co-evolved to reach a state of equilibrium.

Keywords : Micro wasp; Vinchucas; Chagas disease.
