ABSTRACT
I. INTRODUCTION Many insects can cause allergy in man (Table 1) (1). People can be exposed to insect body parts or their secretions by inhalation, to their venoms by stinging, and to their salivary gland secretions by biting. Examples of these routes of sensitization are, respectively, allergies to cockroaches of the order Orthoptera, to ants, bees, and vespids of the order Hymenoptera, and to flies and mosquitos of the order Diptera.
