  abstract = {{T}he present paper reports for the first time the capture of wild {T}riatoma brasiliensis and {T}riatoma pseudomaculata by means of light traps in {B}razil. {W}e tested commercially available lighting devices powered by batteries to attract the bugs to a white piece of cloth in the field. {T}wo main findings showed to be significant: first, the results presented here show that light traps can be used for sampling these species in wild environments; second, they reveal that house colonization by triatomines may also happen as a consequence of the arrival of flying sylvatic bugs guided by artificial light sources. {I}n addition, we discuss the effect of some environmental and biological factors on triatomine flight activity modulation.},
