Comparative Efficacy of BioUD to Other Commercially Available Arthropod Repellents against the Ticks Amblyomma americanum and Dermacentor variabilis on Cotton Cloth

Bissinger, B. W., Zhu, J., Apperson, C. S., Sonenshine, D. E., Watson, D. W., & Roe, R. M. (2009, October 1). American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, Vol. 81, pp. 685–690.

By: B. Bissinger n, J. Zhu n, C. Apperson n, D. Sonenshine  n, D. Watson n & R. Roe n 

MeSH headings : Animals; Cotton Fiber; Insect Repellents / pharmacology; Ixodidae / drug effects; Textiles; Time Factors
topics (OpenAlex): Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect and Pesticide Research; Insect-Plant Interactions and Control
TL;DR: Repellency of BioUD was compared with five commercially available arthropod repellents against the ticks Amblyomma americanum (L.) and Dermacentor variabilis in two-choice bioassays on treated versus untreated cotton cheesecloth. (via Semantic Scholar)

Effects of the Insect Growth Regulator, Methoprene, onOnthophagus taurus(Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

By: E. Niño n, C. Sorenson n, S. Washburn n & D. Watson n

author keywords: Onthophagus taurus; dung beetles; methoprene; insect growth regulator
MeSH headings : Animals; Body Size / drug effects; Coleoptera / anatomy & histology; Coleoptera / drug effects; Coleoptera / physiology; Fertility / drug effects; Insect Control / methods; Juvenile Hormones / pharmacology; Larva / drug effects; Larva / growth & development; Manure; Methoprene / pharmacology
topics (OpenAlex): Scarabaeidae Beetle Taxonomy and Biogeography; Entomopathogenic Microorganisms in Pest Control; Hemiptera Insect Studies
TL;DR: Although some adverse effects of methoprene were observed at higher concentrations, use of meethoprene at concentrations of 0.08 ppm as part of a horn fly control program likely would not greatly affect populations of O. taurus, the most common paracoprid dung beetle in North Carolina.
