Fumigant toxicity and behavioral inhibition of garlic against red imported fire ants (Solenopsis invicta)

Zixia Song et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the fumigating activity of garlic and its effect on the behavior of Solenopsis invicta (S. invicta). It found that garlic contains several compounds, with diallyl disulfide and methyl allyl disulfide being the main constituents. Garlic showed strong fumigant activity and inhibited the behavior of S. invicta workers, with minor workers being more susceptible. This suggests that garlic and its compounds can be used as an eco-friendly approach to control S. invicta.

Exotic Ants of the Asia-Pacific: Invasion, National Response, and Ongoing Needs

Yijuan Xu et al.

Summary: Human activity has introduced numerous exotic species through global trade, making the Asia-Pacific region, with its economic and trade activity, highly vulnerable to invasive species, particularly ants. The Asia-Pacific currently has over 60 exotic ant species, with the red imported fire ant being one of the most destructive. These exotic ants bring about significant economic and ecological problems to the region. Asian-Pacific countries have approached the issue of exotic ants in varying ways, with an overall lack of preparedness. To better manage the risks associated with invasive ants, it is recommended that countries take action in prevention, containment, and quarantine. Establishing an Asia-Pacific network for managing invasive ants can help prevent their introduction and mitigate their impacts.

Toxicity, horizontal transfer, and physiological and behavioral effects of cycloxaprid against Solenopsis invicta (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

Lang Zhang et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy of cycloxaprid, a newly discovered neonicotinoid insecticide, in controlling Solenopsis invicta and compared it with two referent insecticides, imidacloprid and bifenthrin. The results showed that cycloxaprid, imidacloprid, and bifenthrin effectively controlled S. invicta workers, with slightly slower action for cycloxaprid and imidacloprid. Cycloxaprid and imidacloprid could be horizontally transferred among ants, and they did not significantly affect the foraging behaviors of S. invicta workers.

Herbal plants as alternatives for the management of the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta

Ching-Chu Tsai et al.

Summary: The red imported fire ant (RIFA) is a highly invasive species that poses threats to native ecosystems, human health, and economic activities worldwide. The intensive use of synthetic pesticides in Taiwan's quarantine zone has proven to be ineffective in preventing RIFA re-infestation. Therefore, finding eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives for RIFA control is urgently needed. This study investigated the efficacy of planting herbal species in controlling RIFA populations. The results showed that herbal plants, such as Tagetes lemmonii, Cymbopogon citratus, and Chrysopogon zizanioides, effectively repelled RIFA and can be considered as eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives for RIFA control.

Essential Oils in Urban Insect Management-A Review

S. O. Oladipupo et al.

Summary: The rise of urban populations due to the attractions of city life has led to the proliferation of certain insect pests. As chemical insecticides become less effective and insecticide resistance becomes more prevalent, there is an increasing interest in finding alternative solutions. Natural products from plants, such as essential oils and their components, have shown promise in controlling urban insects, including those resistant to traditional insecticides. However, there is currently no comprehensive synthesis on the management of urban insects using these natural products. This review aims to fill this gap by assessing the extent and impact of using essential oils and their components, providing valuable insights for decision-making and policy development, as well as identifying areas for future research on the sustainable use of essential oils.
