Edible baits for systemic flea control, plague mitigation, and wildlife conservation: evaluation of four active ingredients with three rodent species in western North America [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and WildlifeThe flea-borne agent of plague, Yersinia pestis, is lethal to endangered black-footed ferrets (Mustela nigripes, BFFs) and the prairie dogs (Cynomys spp., PDs) on which BFFs depend for habitat and prey.

Efficacy of acetamiprid and fipronil fly baits against the housefly (Musca domestica L.) under laboratory conditions [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2018 Background: The housefly Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae) is permanent pests in livestock facilities. High fly density in livestock and poultry farms can increase the risks of economic loss and public health.

Field Evaluation of Boric Acid- and Fipronil-Based Bait Stations Against Adult Mosquitoes
Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2008 The effectiveness of boric acid (1%) and fipronil (0.1%) bait stations in reducing the number of laboratory-reared female Aedes aegypti and Ochlerotatus taeniorhynchus mosquitoes released in outdoor screened cages was evaluated. Both toxicants significantly reduced landing rates of the 2 mosquito species on a human subject.

Efficacy of a federally approved flea bait, orally administered to white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus), against blood feeding Ixodes scapularis larvae under simulated field conditions [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2023 A promising alternative approach to conventional vector control practices is the use of systemic insecticides/acaricides orally administered to relevant mammalian host species to control blood feeding disease vectors.

Japanese Journal of Applied Entomology and Zoology, 2007 Effects of fipronil bait (0.5%) on sugarcane wireworm Melanotus sakishimensis Ohira were evaluated in laboratory and field experiments. A laboratory experiment comparing the efficacy of fipronil bait with 1% fipronil granules indicated that the fipronil bait actually attracts and kills wireworms.

Field trial on the control effect of fipronil bait against German cockroaches. [PDF]
Korean J Parasitol, 2006 A field trial on the control effect of fipronil poison bait against German cockroaches (Blatella germanica) was carried out at different restaurant types in Sinchon, Seoul, Republic of Korea. Monitoring was performed applying food baited traps for 2 days per week.

Journal of the Korean Wood Science and Technology, 2017 Historical wooden buildings in Korea are being damaged by Reticulitermes speratus kyushuensis Morimoto, a type of subterranean termite, and the scale of this damage is increasing gradually because of global warming. This study evaluated the ingestion toxicity of the phenylpyrazole insecticide fipronil to R. s.

Evaluating the Efficacy of Active Ingredients Used in Roach Baits against Small Hive Beetle (Aethina tumida) and Their Safety to Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) [PDF]
InsectsBeekeepers need new treatment options for controlling small hive beetles (Aethina tumida), a devastating honey bee (Apis mellifera) pest. For many years, commercial beekeepers in the U.S. have used gel roach baits off-label as a method for treating SHBs.
