The 10-5 bait formulation of mirex insecticide was applied to a 20,000-acre area of northeast Florida. For 24 months after application, samples of a wide variety of fauna were collected and analyzed for mirex content. Insects accumulated mirex to the greatest extent in the first 6 months after application; most residues had decreased greatly by 12 months. Other invertebrates showed low mirex levels during the first 9 months after application and none after 12 months. Fish possessed low levels of insecticides for 9 months; amphibians showed mirex residues for 12 months after application. In general, reptiles had low levels throughout the 24-month period and mammals had higher levels, particularly in fat tissues. Birds consistently had low to moderate mirex levels. After a single application of 10-5 mirex bait, only relatively low levels of insecticide were detected in exposed fauna. After 24-months, mirex was found infrequently and at low levels.
将灭蚁灵杀虫剂的10 - 5诱饵配方施用于佛罗里达州东北部2万英亩的区域。施用后24个月内，收集了各种动物样本并分析其灭蚁灵含量。施用后的前6个月，昆虫体内积累的灭蚁灵最多；到12个月时，大多数残留量已大幅下降。其他无脊椎动物在施用后的前9个月内灭蚁灵水平较低，12个月后则未检测到。鱼类在9个月内杀虫剂含量较低；两栖动物在施用后12个月内显示有灭蚁灵残留。总体而言，爬行动物在整个24个月期间含量较低，而哺乳动物含量较高，尤其是在脂肪组织中。鸟类的灭蚁灵水平一直较低到中等。单次施用10 - 5灭蚁灵诱饵后，在受暴露的动物体内仅检测到相对较低水平的杀虫剂。24个月后，很少发现灭蚁灵且含量较低。
