The Influence of Fipronil on Reticulitermes flavipes (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) Feeding Beyond Treated Plots
Publish Date: 2013
Author/Source: Shelton, Thomas G.
Description: A small-plot field trial was conducted to examine the area of influence of fipronil at incremental distances away from treated plots on the Harrison Experimental Forest near Saucier, MS. Small treated (water and fipronil) plots were surrounded by untreated wooden boards in an eight-point radial pattern, and examined for evidence of termite feeding every 60 d for 1 yr after treatment. Circular areas of 0, 0.28, 1.13, 2.55, 4.52, 7.07, and 10.18 m2 around the treated plots were installed to evaluate feeding damage by termites on the boards.

Bed bugs evolved unique adaptive strategy to resist pyrethroid insecticides
Publish Date: 2012-12-28
Author/Source: Scientific Reports | Article Open Print Email Share/bookmark Bed bugs evolved unique adaptive strategy to resist pyrethroid insecticides Fang Zhu, Hemant Gujar, Jennifer R. Gordon, Kenneth F. Haynes, Michael F. Po
Description: Recent advances in genomic and post-genomic technologies have facilitated a genome-wide analysis of the insecticide resistance-associated genes in insects. Through bed bug, Cimex lectularius transcriptome analysis, we identified 14 molecular markers associated with pyrethroid resistance.

Comparison of multiple steam treatment durations for control of bed bugs
Publish Date: 2012-11-28
Author/Source: Puckett RT, McDonald DL, Gold RE
Description: : The work reported herein was designed to refine our understanding of the duration of bed bug/steam contact necessary to affect mortality of bed bugs in laboratory trials. Beg bug eggs, nymphs and adults were exposed to three steam treatment exposure periods in these trials. Mean percentage mortality of bed bug eggs was 100% (regardless of duration of exposure), and that of nymphs and adults ranged from 88.0 to 94.0%. Survivorship of nymphs and adults in the trials was the result of experimental protocol restrictions that would not usually be associated with actual pest management effort.

Potential population growth and harmful effects on humans from bed bug populations exposed to different feeding regimes.
Publish Date: 2012-10-10
Author/Source: Pereira RM, Taylor AS, Lehnert MP, Koehler PG.
Description: Effects of host availability and feeding period on bed bugs, Cimex lectularius (L.) (Hemiptera: Cimicidae), were measured. Population growth and the potential harmful effect of bed bug populations on human hosts were modelled. Bloodmeal sizes were affected by both feeding length and frequency, with >2-fold difference between insects fed daily or weekly
