Abstract

This thesis describes the biology, environmental effects, and dispersal behavior of the tropical bed bug, Cimex hemipterus (Fabricius), as well as the toxicological effects of eight insecticides (lambda-cyhalothrin, bifenthrin, fenitrothion, fipronil, imidacloprid, indoxacarb, chlorantraniliprole and DDT) on this species. The resurgence of bed bug infestations in recent years and infestation management also are discussed.
