Insect growth regulators (IGRs) generally are considered to have safer eco‐toxicological profiles than the more commonly used neurotoxins and metabolic inhibitors, and are extremely effective against several insect groups, including some invasive ant species. However, use of an IGR product in a large‐scale eradication program for a widespread invasive ant (Anoploepis gracilipes; yellow crazy ant) was ineffective. We tested the IGR in question (active ingredient: (S)‐methoprene) on A. gracilipes colonies in a laboratory environment to evaluate efficacy.

昆虫生长调节剂可降低入侵性蚁群生产力

一般认为，昆虫生长调节剂（IGR）具有比更常用的神经毒素和代谢抑制剂更安全的生态毒理学特征，并且对几种昆虫（包括某些入侵性蚂蚁）极为有效。但是，在大规模根除计划中将IGR产品用于广泛的入侵性蚂蚁（Anoploepis gracilipes；黄色疯狂蚂蚁）是无效的。我们在实验室环境中在gracilipes菌落上测试了相关的IGR（有效成分：（S）-美沙re）。
