Efficacy of Protein Baits with Fipronil to Control Vespa velutina nigrithorax (Lepeletier, 1836) in Apiaries [PDF]
The yellow-legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax), outside its natural range, has become a major threat to domestic bees. Several control methods have been used to fight against V. velutina, but the results achieved are not satisfactory.

Evaluation of baiting fipronil-loaded silica nanocapsules against termite colonies in fields [PDF]
Various pesticide nanocarriers have been developed. However, their pest-control applications remain limited in laboratories. Herein, we developed silica nanocapsules encapsulating fipronil (SNC) and their engineered form, poly(ethyleneimine)-coated SNC ...

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]
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.

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]
Beekeepers 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.
