Experts from the National University?s Veterinary and Entomology schools issued a warning this week about the possible spread of Chagas? disease throughout Costa Rica.
A recent investigation by researchers at the university found people infected with Chagas? disease, which is spread by kissing bugs, in the provinces of San Jos?, Alajuela, Heredia and Guanacaste.

One of the hotspots for the disease is the community of Getseman? in Heredia. University investigators inspected 177 houses in Getseman? and found kissing bugs in 21 of them, representing 11 percent of the total. They also found insect nests in other 14 houses.
Experts advise people who find the bug or suspect it might be breeding on their property to request assistance at the closest medical center, and if possible, take one specimen to confirm it is a Chagas? disease carrier.
