Santa Cruz Island Reserve

29 Aug, 03 AM - 01 Sep, 08 AM

The objective of the project is to determine the feasibility of eradicating Argentine ants, Linepithema humile (Mayr), from Santa Cruz Island. Various monitoring tools and strategies including pit fall traps, bait traps, and visual inspections will be evaluated. The effectiveness of various ant baits and nest treatments will determined against Argentine ants. Baits that are effective against Argentine ants that minimize kill of native ant species will have the highest priority. This data will be used to develop larger control efforts in 2011.
