Carpenter Ants and Control in Homes Page 1 of 6
Carpenter Ants and Control in Homes Page 1 of 6 Carpenter Ants and Control in Homes Fact Sheet No. 31 Revised May 2000 Dr. Jay B Karren, Extension Entomologist Alan H. Roe, Insect Diagnostician Introduction Carpenter ants are members of the insect order Hymenoptera, which includes bees, wasps, sawflies, and other ants. Carpenter ants can be occasional pests in the home and are noted particularly for the damage they can cause when nesting in wood. In Utah they are more of a nuisance rather than a major structural pest. Carpenter ants, along with a number of other ant species, utilize cavities in wood, particularly stumps and logs in decayed condition, as nesting sites. They are most abundant in forests and can be easily found under loose bark of dead trees, stumps, or fallen logs. Homeowners may bring them into their homes when they transport infested logs from forests to use as firewood. Description Carpenter ants include species that are among the largest ants found in the United States. They are social insects with a complex and well-defined caste system. The worker ants are sterile females and may occur in different sizes (majors and minors). Members of the reproductive caste (fertile males and females) are usually winged prior to mating. All ants develop from eggs deposited by a fertilized female (queen). The eggs hatch into grub-like larvae (immatures) which are fed and cared for by the workers. When fully grown, the larvae spin a cocoon and enter the pupal stage. The pupal stage is a period of transformation from the larva to adult.

Opinion & Information on Boric Acid
Opinion & Information on Boric Acid By Michael R. Cartwright, Sr. (Michael R. Cartwright, Sr. is a third generation licensed professional in the fields of structural pest control and building construction and is also licensed in agriculture pest control. His qualifications are too extensive to print but are available on request from The Reporter.) Over the past years I have seen, in many homes and restaurants, boric acid covering everything. Carpets, floors, toys and furniture, in kitchen cabinets, on counter tops and tables, in refrigerators, clothing, etc. Why? Because environmentalists, helped by an uninformed news media, tell them to. Why don't the news media also explain the possible dangers of applying something not normally found in the home environment, that you or your animals will come in direct contact with? I'm writing this article even though a California environmentalist group advised me not to say anything against boric acid and that I would pay dearly for only trying to mislead the public. My company uses a lot of boric acid, but not as described above. Under an OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, based on animal chronic toxicity studies of inorganic borate chemicals, boric acid and/or borates are Hazardous Materials. California has identified boric acid as a hazardous waste. The above information is taken from Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) 25-80-2320 (Section 2 and 13) supplied by U.S. Borax Inc. (the major supplier of borax to many industries). The National Academy of Sciences reports that children may be uniquely sensitive to chemicals and pesticide residues because of their rapid tissue growth and development.

Past Use of Chlordane, Dieldrin, And
The Hazard Evaluation and Emergency Response Office (HEER Office) is part of the Hawai‘i Department of Health (HDOH) Environmental Health Administration, whose mission is to protect human health and the environment. The HEER Office provides leadership, support, and partnership in preventing, planning for, responding to, and enforcing environmental laws relating to releases or threats of releases of hazardous substances. Past Use of Chlordane, Dieldrin, and other Organochlorine Pesticides for Termite Control in Hawai‘i: Safe Management Practices around Treated Foundations or during Building Demolition This fact sheet provides building owners, demolition and construction contractors, developers, realtors, and others with an overview of the potential environmental concerns associated with the past use of organochlorine termiticides (pesticides used to control termites) in Hawai‘i. In addition, this fact sheet discusses methods for reducing exposure to organochlorine termiticides during building demolition or around the foundations of treated buildings and identifies resources for further information. What are organochlorine termiticides? Organochlorine termiticides are a group of pesticides that were used for termite control in and around wooden buildings and homes from the mid-1940s to the late 1980s. These organochlorine pesticides included chlordane, aldrin, dieldrin, heptachlor, and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT). They were used primarily by pest control operators in Hawaii’s urban areas, but also by homeowners, the military, the state, and counties to protect buildings against termite damage. In the 1970s and 1980s, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned all uses of these organochlorine pesticides except for heptachlor, which can be used today only for control of fire ants in underground power transformers.

Transfer of Ingested Insecticides Among Cockroaches: Effects of Active Ingredient, Bait Formulation, and Assay Procedures
HOUSEHOLD AND STRUCTURAL INSECTS Transfer of Ingested Insecticides Among Cockroaches: Effects of Active Ingredient, Bait Formulation, and Assay Procedures 1 2 1, 3 GRZEGORZ BUCZKOWSKI, ROBERT J. KOPANIC, JR., AND COBY SCHAL J. Econ. Entomol. 94(5): 1229Ð1236(2001) ABSTRACT Foraging cockroaches ingest insecticide baits, translocate them, and can cause mor- tality in untreated cockroaches that contact the foragers or ingest their excretions. Translocation of eight ingested baits by adult male Blattella germanica (L.) was examined in relation to the type of the active ingredient, formulation, and foraging area. Ingested boric acid, chlorpyrifos, Þpronil, and hydramethylnon that were excreted by adults in small dishes killed 100% of Þrst instars within 10 d and Ͼ50% of second instars within 14 d. Residues from these ingested baits were also highly effective on nymphs in larger arenas and killed 16Ð100% of the adults. However, when the baits and dead cockroaches were removed from the large arenas and replaced with new cockroaches, only residues of the slow-acting hydramethylnon killed most of the nymphs and adults, whereas residues of fast acting insecticides (chlorpyrifos and Þpronil) killed fewer nymphs and adults. Excretions from cockroaches that ingested abamectin baits failed to cause signiÞcant mortality in cockroaches that contacted the residues. These results suggest that hydramethylnon is highly effective in these assays because cockroaches that feed on the bait have ample time to return to their shelter and defecate insecticide-laden feces. The relatively high concentration of hydramethylnon in the bait (2.15%) and its apparent stability in the digestive tract and feces probably contribute to the efÞcacy of hydra- methylnon.

FLD004064242 June 1995 Prepared by Environmental Toxicology The Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services Under a Cooperative Agreement With Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry U.S. Public Health Service Department of Health and Human Services - ' ' Health Consultation - Chevron Chemical June 1995 Background and Statement of Issues The purpose of this health consultation is to interpret the results of indoor air monitoring for pesticides in two trailers adjacent to the Chevron Chemical Superfund site in Orlando, Florida. During a March 9, 1995 public meeting, two nearby residents expressed concerns that the insides of their trailers were contaminated with pesticides. We agreed to test their trailers for pesticide contamination. The Chevron Chemical Co. (Ortho Division) Superfund site is a former pesticide formulation plant and truck repair facility in Orlando, Florida (Figures 1-3, Appendix A). Past waste disposal practices contaminated soil and ground water. Stormwater run-off carried pesticide-contaminated soil to the adjacent Armstrong Trailer Park. In 1992, the Chevron Chemical Company removed the on-site contaminated soil. In 1994, they removed the contaminated soil from the Armstrong Trailer Park. In a 1995 public health assessment (ATSDR 1995), we found the site was a public health hazard because some residents of the adjacent Armstrong Trailer Park may have unknowingly eaten small amounts of soil contaminated with the pesticide chlordane. As a result, we estimated those residents have a moderately increased risk of liver cancer. Since Chevron cleaned up the chlordane-contaminated soil at this trailer park, we estimated the remaining cancer risk from chlordane is insignificant.

On average, cooking reduced moisture content by 17% and increased fat content by 28 to 274%. Frying reduced chlordane residues by 56 to 86% on a dry basis (db) or 84 to 92% on a percent fat basis (fb) when raw ®llets were compared to cooked ®llets. Baking and smoking reduced chlordane signi®cantly less (P , 0.05) than frying with reductions in residues of 12% and 9% (db) or 30% and 33% (fb), respectively. Frying reduced toxaphene residues by 40 to 49% (db) or 65 to 77% (fb), while baking and smoking reduced toxaphene by 35% and 24% (db) or 51% and 59% (fb), respectively.
