1
Recent Trends in Managing Nuisance Ant Pests Go
Green!
2
Green Pest Management Defined by the Georgia
Structural Pest Control Commission
A service that employs an Integrated Pest
Management (IPM) approach while utilizing fewer
of the earths resources as part of a larger
effort to reduce human impacts on the
environment.
3
Green Pest Control Products
Green products are largely defined by those
containing plant essential oils (peppermint,
spearmint, cedar, etc.).
4
Characteristics ofPlant Essential Oils
  • Contact Toxicity Low to Moderate in comparison
    to traditional actives.
  • Topical Toxicity Low to Moderate in comparison
    to traditional actives.
  • Repellency/Deterrency High in comparison to
    traditional actives.

5
So, why are products based on a set of actives
that show little contact toxicity, are highly
repellent, and ephemeral (volatile), so popular
among homeowners (and profitable to pest control
operators)?
6
Placebo
A Placebo is a pharmacologically inactive
substance (or procedure) that can have a
therapeutic effect if administered to a patient
who believes that he or she is receiving an
effective treatment. A PE is not something that
occurs naturally. It must be manufactured in
the sense that it occurs only in the presence of
intent (or the perception of intent).
7
The Placebo EffectUltrasonic Devices Do Not
Repel or Kill Pests But What does the Public
Believe?
8
Snake Oil ScienceThe Truth About
Complementaryand Alternative Medicine (CAM)
  • R. Barker Bausell, Ph.D. Biostatistician, Univ.
    of Maryland Director of NIH National Center for
    CAM
  • A cold, scientific evaluation of CAM therapies
    via double-blinded methodology.

9
So, Why Are Companies Going Green? (other than
the fact that its profitable)
10
Pest Management Companies are Moving to Green
Services Because
  • In California, pesticides in water have led to
    restrictions on product use around homes.
  • The climate of bee protection, including (a)
    CCD and the role that pesticides might play, and
    (b) the Oregon Bee Kills, has led to EPA
    restrictions on the use of neonicotinoids (soon
    these restrictions will be for all spray
    products, says EPA).
  • Fewer basic manufacturers developing fewer active
    ingredients (cost prohibitive).

13
2013 - Dinotefuran
Pollinator Week in the U.S.
  • Two incidents involving dinotefuran, the active
    ingredient in Valent/Safari (June 2013).
  • Both incidents involved the death of a large
    number of bumble bees (up to 59,000) foraging on
    flowering linden trees.
  • The two incidents involved different timing and
    application methods (foliar drench, and basal
    bark application).

Pesticide Development is Really Expensive!
17
Fewer basic manufacturers are developing fewer
traditional active ingredients. Why?
  • Development costs for essential oils are usually
    significantly lower (no registration data
    required because these actives are exempt from
    EPA registration requirements).
  • While the need for products in structural pest
    control markets are high, the markets are not
    large relative to major crop markets.
  • For insecticides, structural products are usually
    add-on markets to agricultural uses for a new
    active ingredient (e.g., fipronil in 2000 for
    termites).

18
Manufacturers are reformulating the same active
ingredients (many are now generic) to come out
with new products.
  • Combining Active Ingredients
  • Transport (FMC)
  • Temprid (Bayer)
  • Tandem (Syngenta)
  • Fuse (CSI)
  • New formulations
  • Termidor HE and Dry (BASF)
  • Suspend Polyzone (Bayer)
  • EndZone (FMC)

What Explains Growth in Green Products
  • (A) The high costs associated with development of
    an active ingredient AND (B) the growth in
    green programs by PMPs
  • Both have led to an explosion of green pest
    control products (chicken or egg)
  • A market based on green offerings has been
    created among residential customers for use of
    products they believe are soft yet still as
    effective as traditional poisons.
  • rosemary, spearmint, etc.
  • pyrethrins are now considered green!
  • spinosad

Speaking of Things that Dont Work!Testing Some
Outrageous Ant Control Claims
  • All-natural CURES forresidential ant problems
  • Including the use of tansy leaves, cucumber peel,
    and a soybean tea

  • Tansy leaves
  • Dried and fresh
  • Cucumber peels
  • Dried and fresh
  • Rosemary leaves
