Survival of aposymbiotic first-instar nymphs of R. prolixus exposed to CRUZIGARD. Thirty nymphs were exposed to CRUZIGARD impregnated with genetically transformed R. rhodnii. Fifteen nymphs were exposed to CRUZIGARD containing no added bacteria. Aposymbiotic first-instar nymphs exposed to natural feces in our insectary experience, on average, 50% mortality to the adult stage.
