Species Distribution Models Reveal Varying Degrees of Refugia From the Invasive Asian Needle Ant for Native Ants Versus Ant‐Plant Seed Dispersal Mutualisms

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.
Using extensive searching, habitat suitability models, and minimum convex polygons, our paper presents the B. chinensis invasion and establishment of supercolonies at multiple sites across GSMNP. Our suitability models suggest moderate B. chinensis invasion potential for a large portion of the park, and we suggest that human disturbance has facilitated

Catch and release: controlling eastern yellowjacket Vespula maculifrons colonies using horizontal insecticide transfer

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 10, Page 4863-4870, October 2024.
The current study evaluated the trap–treat–release technique for controlling field populations of the eastern yellowjacket, Vespula maculifrons. Laboratory experiments demonstrated that fipronil is highly effectively against V. maculifrons across a wide range of concentrations.

QuEChERS-Based Method for the Determination of Fipronil in Protein Baits and Vespa velutina Larvae by HPLC-DAD and GC-MS

open access: yesSeparations
Protein baits containing fipronil as a biocide have shown their effectivity as a control method for Vespa velutina nigrithorax (Lepeletier, 1836) in apiaries. This biocide is not selective for Vespa velutina, so it is important to use the minimum dose to

Unraveling the interaction of co‐encapsulated Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Metarhizium brunneum in calcium alginate‐based attract‐and‐kill beads

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 10, Page 5131-5140, October 2024.
Co‐encapsulated Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Metarhizium brunneum interacted beneficially but also competed for resources. Depending on the composition of beads, steep oxygen gradients with internal hypoxic zones and temporary severe acidification occurred.
