  • 36 Wood Destroying Insects
    CHAPTER 36 THE BEST CONTROL OR HOW TO PERMANENTLY AND SAFELY CONTROL ALL WOOD DESTROYING ORGANISMS http://www.pctonline.com/copesan/ (without killing yourself) The February 1999 issue of Pest Control magazine on page 18 quotes Dr. Austin Frishman as saying, “We know that termiticides alone will not solve most termite problems.” This chapter will show you how to safely solve them without using any volatile termiticide poisons. At the time a live tree is cut down, nearly half its weight consists of water! The most destructive factor to wood in structures is excessive moisture, not wood destroying insects. Correct all moisture and humidity problems and you will also control almost all wood destroying insect problems without using any poisons. Use ventilation, moisture barriers, fans, air conditioners and/or dehumidifiers first, last and always. 1347 FORWARD Far more volatile, “registered,” synthetic pesticide poison is used to control termites than any other structural pest you will ever encounter. No volatile synthetic residual insecticide or economic poison is completely safe no matter what the professional pest control industry claims. The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), when it approves one of the economic poisons, basically is only concerned with the harmful effects that occur from a single exposure of only the active ingredient by any route of entry or its acute toxicity expressed as its LD50 or LC50 value which is the lethal dose or concentration (relative amount) of only the active ingredient required to kill 50 % of a test population, e.g., male rats. LD50 values are recorded in milligrams of active ingredient per kilogram of body weight of the test animal.

    Do It Yourself SAFE AND EFFECTIVE PEST MANAGEMENT FOR YOUR HOME, BUSINESS OR SCHOOL Richard “Bugman” Fagerlund All rights reserved including the right of reproduction in whole or in part in any form. FORWARD Every year, approximately 5.1 billion pounds of pesticides are used in the United States alone. Pesticides are intentionally toxic substances associated with birth defects, mutations, reproductive effects and cancer. Exposing our families to these pesticides makes them especially vulnerable to loss of brain function, damage to their reproductive systems, childhood leukemia, soft tissue sarcoma, neuroblastoma, Wilms' tumor, Ewing's sarcoma, non­Hodgkins lymphoma, brain cancer, colorectal cancer and testes cancer. Many "inert" ingredients found in pesticides are suspected carcinogens and have been linked to central nervous system disorders, liver and kidney damage, birth defects and many other serious threats to our health. The warning label on Roundup is 10 pages alone! So why do we continue to use them? Is it possible the loss of brain function associated with pesticide use is what is driving our decision to continue using them? 5.1 billion pounds are being dumped on our gardens, lawns, trees, shrubs, and making their way into our rivers, our water supply, our food supply and our bodies. We are slowly poisoning ourselves and our environment. 96% of all fish analyzed in major rivers and streams contain residues of one or several pesticides. 100% of all surface water contains one or more pesticides. Pesticides, and especially herbicides, are contaminating our water supply. Removal is costly and difficult, and not always 100% effective. Pesticides are suspected to be the cause of amphibian declines and mutations as well as the rapid decline of our most important pollinator, the honey bee.

  • Common Wood-Destroying Beetles
    Common Wood-Destroying Beetles Powderpost Beetles Powder post beetles are so named because they can reduce wood to finely powdered frass (powder or dust). The small “shot hole” exit openings in wood surfaces are great indications of a powderpost beetle infestation. Adult powder post beetles are rarely seen, and are usually found in a home by the presence of small exit holes noted in sills, joists, or the sub-floor. Their unusually long antennae best distinguish powder post beetles. Other characteristics that usually identify them are being white, yellow; soft bodied, hairy with five jointed legs. The life cycle of a beetle may take up to a year. They are considered to be the second most destructive wood - destroying insects. Different Kinds of Woods Some powder post beetles confine their activities to starch-rich, large-pored hardwoods, such as ash, hickory, oak, walnut, and cherry. Many different kinds of wood commodities and structures have been damaged by powderpost beetle infestations. Timbers, planks and flooring in houses and barns, axe and hammer handles, musical instruments and museum woodcarvings are all good examples of items damaged or destroyed. Powderpost beetles often are a serious problem for individuals remodeling or renovating old buildings and/or salvaging lumber from old wooden structures. Keep in mind that powderpost beetles can infest any item made of wood. Powder post beetles belong to four Families: Lyctidae, the Lyctus and/or “True” Powder Post Beetles; Bostrichidae, the large and/or “False” PowderPost Beetles; Anobiidae, the Deathwatch, © 2014 All Star Training, Inc. Furniture or Anobiid PowderPost Beetles; and Ptinidae, the Spider Beetles.

Simple Summary: Biological invasions are one of the most critical problems today. Invaders have been damaging tree- and shrub-dominated ecosystems. Among these harmful species, a notable role belongs to bark beetles and borers. Extensive phytosanitary measures are needed to prevent their penetration into new regions. However, the lists of quarantine pests should be reasonably brief for more effective prevention of invasion of potentially harmful insects. Our goal is to reveal the set of biological traits of invasive bark beetles and borers that are currently known. We identified four invasion strategies. Inbred, the first one is characterized by inbreeding, parthenogenesis, polyvoltin- ism, xylomycetophagy, flightless males, polyphagy, to less extent by association with pathogenic fungi. For the second, polyphagous, typical traits are polyphagy, feeding on wood, high fecundity, distance sex pheromones presence, development for one year or more. The third strategy, intermediate, Citation: Demidko, D.A.; Demidko, possesses such features as mono- or olygophagy, feeding on inner-bark, short (one year or less) N.N.; Mikhaylov, P.V.; Sultson, S.M.

  • A Case Study from Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park
    Biogeography and ecology of beetles in a tropical archipelago: A case study from Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University College London by Shinta Puspitasari Department of Geography University College London April 2016 1 I, Shinta Puspitasari, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Shinta Puspitasari April 2016 2 Abstract Beetles comprise not only the most diverse group of insects, but also contribute significantly to vital ecological functions. A quantitative formula to determine the optimal level of investment in the beneficial beetle conservation is still not available. I aim to establish specific attention to beetles and their role in tropical island ecosystems in small archipelago in Indonesia. The study aims to give further insights into beetle diversity patterns on islands in the Kepulauan Seribu Marine National Park and on Java, and how island isolation and area affect assemblage composition. My research also provides insights into the effects of anthropogenic activities on beetle diversity on these islands. A first important result is the substantial number of highly abundant island species and a high number of unique island species found in the study areas, indicating islands as potentially important for the global conservation of genetic resources. My results also highlight the highly varied results relating to the use of two different types of traps, pitfall traps and FITs, for sampling beetles. It underscores the need for complementary trapping strategies using multiple methods for beetle community surveys in tropical islands.
