EFICIÊNCIA DA ISCA MIREX-S (SULFURAMIDA 0,3%) NO CONTROLE DE Atta cephalotes(HYMENOPTERA: FORMICIDAE) EM TRÊS DOSAGENS

Abstract: Este trabalho foi realizado em reflorestamentos de eucalipto híbrido urograndis (Eucalyptus urophyllaX Eucalyptus grandis)da Jari Celulose S.A, no município de Almerim, Pará, de julho de 1993 a janeiro de 1994. Objetivou-se testar a eficiência da isca granulada Mirex-S (sulfluramida 0,3%), nas dosagens de 6, 8 e 10 gramas por metro quadrado de formigueiro, em comparação com 10 gramas de uma isca a base de dodecacloro (0,45%) para o controle de Atta cephalotes(Hymenoptera: Formicidae). A isca Mirex-S apresentou… Show more

“…Regretably, efficacy data on methods alternative to insecticide use are scarce and variable. Reliable efficacy data, however, are available for chemical control with sulfluramid (insecticidal) baits providing high levels of efficacy (ranging from 83.3 to 100.0%) against leaf‐cutting ants attacking broad‐leaf species, efficacy range also reached with thermal fogging . Nonetheless, the chemical control of leaf‐cutting ants also faces several constraints, which will be addressed.…”

“…A alta eficiência de controle observada concorda com relatos para diversas espécies de formigas-cortadeiras como Atta sexdens sexdens (Cruz et al, 1996), A. sexdens rubropilosa (Zanuncio et al, 2000), Atta laevigata (Alves et al, 1997), Atta cephalotes (Zanuncio et al, 1996) e Acromyrmex octospinosus (Cruz et al, 2000). No entanto, a eficiência dessa isca granulada aplicada sobre o monte de terra solta de formigueiros de A. sexdens rubropilosa, em relação à sua aplicação convencional, em olheiros fora desses montes, não havia sido ainda estudada.…”

“…In the current methods to control these species, the usage of granular baits has stood out (ZaNúNcio et al 1980), mainly for offering the handlers more safety (loeck & NakaNo 1984), lower labor costs and higher yield in the field (Forti et al 1993;ZaNúNcio et al 1993). In spite of this, the low attractiveness of the bait matrices -usually citric pulp -may lead to non-carrying or devolution together with the waste or along the trails (Boaretto & Forti 1997;DelaBie et al 2000), making it available to other organisms.…”
