Project Title

Efficacy of granular and gel baits placed in labo11atory trial colonies with and without Juvae for carpenter ants (Camponoh1smiddot modoc) and odorous house ants Tapinoma tessile)

Rationale and Significance Odorous house ants and carpenter ants are widely distributed throughout the United States and have become two of the most serious pests in structures in lhe Pacific Northwest eithel as a nuisance pesl mmiddot stmcturally damaging The industry considers these ants as lhe number one and two caJJ back pests in the United States (NPMA 2012 Ant lndustry Research Survey) Pest management professionals (PMPs) and homeowners employ a wide variety of management strategies with varying degrees of success Many bait formulations (granulal1 gelsJ liquids and prepared stations) are available for both of these species

The complex food cycle within an ant colony varies with the species of ant Forag1ng ants bring food or water back to the colony and pass it to other wmkei-s by a mouth-to--mouth process call trophalJaxis The number of active foi-agers in a colony ranges from 1 to 10 of the population They also regurgitate liquid food to larvae The crop that carries and distributes food is this way has been called a social stomach The recognition of the role that liquid foods play in the nuttition and colony cohesion has led lo bait development particularly liquids (Oi and VaH 2011) Trophallaxis by larvae has been observed in carpenter ants (Wheeler 192amp) but not odorous house ants (Holldoble1middot and Wilson 1990) The complex food cycle used by ants is why bait insecticides are becoming a11 effective strategy in controlling ants

Literature on anl resean~h gives con nicting 1middoteports legarding the digestion of solid food by workelmiddots and latvae A filtering mechanism (infrabuccal 1late) in adult ants pi-events solid food particles from entering the digestive tract (Hansen and Klotzmiddot2005) Hedges (2010) and Dennett et at (2010) state that solid pieces of food are carried back to lhc colony and arc fed to the larvae that cat and digest them The larvae then rcgui-gitate the digested food back to the wo1-lnws The possibility that larvae serve as specialized digestive castes hns been supJJOrted only fo1middot the one subfamily of ants (Myrmicinae) (Holldobler and Wilson J 990) This subfamily of anls does not include eitnerbull carpentc1middot ants (Subfamily Formicinae) 01middot odorous house ants (Subfamily Dolichoderinae) There is also the possibility that larvae aLe producing enzymes that are passed to workers and digestion occurs in the infrabuccal sac of adult ants where solid food is stored Wheeler and Wheeler (1976) indicate that the workers liek the larvae and receive saliva and possibly food nutrients

As advertised in their technical buUetin (DuPont) Jndoxacarb the active ingredient in Advion granules and ArHon gel bait is a member of the chemislry class Lhe oxadiazines lndoxacarb is labeled as a ~reduced 1middotisk chemical and when inge~teci by insects its effectiveness increases because an insects enzymes convert the molecule into a more powerful compound~ Comparison of this molecule in a gel form (ArHon) versus a solid form (Adv ion granules) wiH assjst in determining if larvae are required in the conversion of t11is chemical Other currently registered granular and gel baits will be included in these trials In both field research and laboratory studies mortality of workers has occurred with granular baits in varying length of time Larvae

were not present in laboratory studies These tests will look at the impmtancc of larvae in this lransiti on

The purpose of this study is to examjne the use of granular baits versus gel baits for the control of odorous house Hnls and for carpenter ants and to determine if larvae are a factor in the consumption and djstribution of the toxicants of the baits Understanding the mechanism that toxicants enter the colony is fundamental to control Application of baits js acceptable by homeowners as less toxicant is applied to thefr surroundings and to the environment

Project Description Objectives Determine the effect of carpenter ant larvae included in laboratory colonies in the distribution of a toxicant thrnugh granular or gel baits

Efficacy of the toxicant with and without larvae Timing of the toxicant in nests with and without latvac

Determine the effect of odorous house ant larvae included in laboratory colonies in the distribution of a toxicant through granular otmiddot gel baits

Efficacy of the toxicant with and without larvae Timing of the toxicant in nests with and without larvae

Procedures Two species will be used in these trials Camponotut modoc (carpenter ants) and Tapinoma sessile (odorous house ants) The procedure will be the samefor both specjes

Colonies wiJI be collected in May and June transferred to the lab and maintained until tests are initiated Both species have been successfully maintained in the 1ab in previous yea1middots Previously collected colonies will not be used only colonies collected this season wiH be used in tdals Ants wHl be co[lected in Washinglon and Idaho

From Ia1middotge collected colonies nest boxes of ants foe tdnls will be established with 40 ants pee dish or 40 ants plus 20 larvae per dish Ants will not recejve food for 24 hours before bait is added After 24 hours exposure to bait food wiH be added to provide n choice of food or bait Contro)s wHJ be offered honey as a food source and no bait Pive reps will be made fo1middot each ttmiddoteatmenl Mortality of workers (and 1atvae) will be monitored and recorded daily fol two weeks

Baits selected for this study include J Advion Insect Granules (022 lndoxacarb) 2 Maxfo1middotce Gram1lar Insect Bait ( 10 Hydramethylnon) 3 In Viet Xpress (granules) (05 Jmidacloprid) 4 Niban FG (5 Boric acid) 5 Abathotmiddot Ant Bait (granules) (0011 Abamectin) 6 Advjon Ant Gel (005 Indoxacarb) 7 Optigard Ant Gel Bait (0010 Thiamethoxam) 8 In Tice Ant Bait (geJ) (30 Sodium Tetmborate DecabydLmiddotAte) 9 Control honey

Colonies of ants will be collected in May and June Tria] boxes wiH be established beginning in June and triaJs wilJ nm through June and July Djfferences in behavior have been noted through previous work with carpenter ant~ by mid August All work will be completed by this time
