Notes: The following is a report on our latest research results, which focused on the development of bait toxicants for use in vineyards against both soil- and vine-nesting ant species. Target ants of this study included the Argentine ant common pugnacious ant (Anoplolepis custodiens) and cocktail ant. Furthermore, we discuss the toxicity of various common vineyard chemicals on two important mealybug parasitoids Crematogaster perminutus and Anagyrus sp.
