Abstract
A pelleted bait containing 0.45% mirex plus soybean oil in a citrus-pulp carrier gave excellent control of the Texas leaf-cutting ant, Atta texana (Buckley), in all seasons. The minimum dosage is approximately 1 g per mound, broadcast over the central nest area plus a 20-foot peripheral zone.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
