Research and extension priorities for ant management Identification/Education Management personnel/ technicians/homeowners

Identification/biology/seasonal applications 1. Control of swarmers 2. Ants in winter months

Velvety tree ants Liometopum occidentale L. luctuosum

Large infestations

Research: Velvety tree ants Biology Behavior Distribution Management

Odorous house ant: 3 mm Velvety tree ant, L. occidentale: mm Velvety tree ant, (pine tree ant) L. luctuosum: mm

Odorous House Ants Tapinoma sessile Research: WDO or nuisance Natural habitats Chemical/cultural management

Pavement ants Tetramorium caespitum Tetramorium sp. E

Research: Seasonal Control Winged forms emerging in structures Slab construction Activity in winter months

Moisture/cornfield ants Lasius spp.

Research: Species: WDO/nuisance Management with removal of wood? Injection techniques for buried wood?

Carpenter ants Camponotus spp.

Research: Seasonal management Reproductives in structures in winter Wall injection at emerging sites vs full drill/inject treatment with liquid or dust

December/January

Research: (continued) Spot/partial treatment vs full perimeter sprays Label directions: ? up and ? feet out Equipment: power vs hand held

Baits

Use of baits Labor intensive: seasonal-foragers only Transfer of material Combination with other treatments Problem: Competition with natural foods or bait acceptance

Inspections: More emphasis on inspections: Initial plus follow-up Replace regular service calls with inspections Education of clients Change is good
