Fipronil: An Ultra-Low-Dose Bait Toxicant for Control of Red Imported Fire Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesThe Florida Entomologist, 1998
Fipronil, a new broad spectrum pyrazole insecticide, was tested both in the laboratory and field as a bait toxicant for control of red imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta Buren. Laboratory bioassays with worker ants showed that delayed toxicity occurred with baits ranging from 5 to 200 g/ml active ingredient (AI). Tests with field-collected colonies

Global Perspective of Insecticide Resistance in Bed Bugs and Management Options

open access: yesEntomological Research, Volume 55, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT The global resurgence of bed bugs (Cimex lectularius L. and Cimex hemipterus [F.]) over the past 25 years has presented significant challenges to the pest management industry, with insecticide resistance as a leading cause of control failures. This review provides a synthesis of bed bug insecticide resistance research from 2018 to the present,

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
