Ecological and Epidemiological Consequences of Tick-Control Interventions in Residential Neighborhoods: A Synthesis of The Tick Project. [PDF]
Transbound Emerg DisControlling populations of Ixodes ticks has emerged as a core strategy for reducing human exposure to tick‐borne infections. Several means of reducing the size of the tick population using chemical and biological acaricides show promise in field trials and are frequently used commercially in North America and Europe.

Understanding Stress Response in Superorganisms: A Multi-Level and Cybernetic Approach. [PDF]
Ecol EvolAll multicellular organisms have a nested stress response system, and understanding how stress effects propagate across biological levels is key to predicting their impact on the organism or superorganism. Superorganisms, like honeybee and ant colonies, represent good models to study stress response systems across different levels of biological ...

Fipronil-infused sodium polyacrylate gels provide effective management of Argentine ants in conservation areas. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciThe current study evaluated the potential of sodium polyacrylate (ACR) hydrogels to effectively deliver liquid baits to Argentine ants. Laboratory and field trials demonstrated that: (i) fipronil is highly effective for Argentine ant control in natural areas when used in low concentrations (0.005%); (ii) ACR hydrogels are an effective tool for ...
