The standard fenoxycarb fire ant bait formulation (Logic), composed of pregel defatted corn grits and soybean oil toxicant, was modified by eliminating the soybean oil. This formulation without soybean oil contained greater than 2 times more fenoxycarb and was as effective as the standard bait formulation against laboratory colonies of red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta Buren. In field tests, the modified and standard baits were equally effective in controlling fire ants after 6, 12, and 18 wk. Individual worker ants obtained from plots treated with fenoxycarb baits without soybean oil had greater than 47 times less fenoxycarb than did workers from the plots treated with the standard fenoxycarb baits containing soybean oil.
标准的苯氧威火蚁诱饵配方（Logic）由预凝胶脱脂玉米粗粉和豆油毒剂组成，通过去除豆油进行了改良。这种不含豆油的配方所含苯氧威的量超过原来的两倍多，并且在对抗红火蚁（Solenopsis invicta Buren）实验室蚁群方面与标准诱饵配方一样有效。在田间试验中，改良诱饵和标准诱饵在6周、12周和18周后控制火蚁的效果相同。从用不含豆油的苯氧威诱饵处理的地块中获取的单个工蚁体内的苯氧威含量，比从用含豆油的标准苯氧威诱饵处理的地块中获取的工蚁体内的苯氧威含量少47倍以上。
