Abstract:
Bait consumption, and the efficacy of 1080-treated grain, were determined for feral pigs (Sus scrofa) during the dry season in the Fitzroy River region of north-western Australia. There were an estimated 250 pigs on the study site (15 000-ha paddock with beef cattle) before poison-baiting, and group size and the basic biology of these pigs were similar to that found elsewhere in Australia. All animals at the study site were naive to the test baits. Fermented wheat with added blood and bone was an attractant for feral pigs but added fish oil was not. Wheat and malted barley were the ‘preferred’

Abstract:
AbstractThe efficacy of baiting as a pest control method relies on the bait appealing to the pest species. In the case of wood-eating termites, bait stations should be designed to encourage termite presence and to maximize their consumption of bait matrix in order to expedite control in minimal time. A field experiment examined the effect of bait size (one large bait or four small baits of equivalent total size, with commensurate inspection and replacement schedules), compaction (tightly rolled or loosely folded) and composition (paper only or paper plus wood) on termite presence and on untrea

Abstract This trial was conducted at White Mountain Country Club, Ashland, NH. Five replications of 3 treatments were applied on 24 Jul on a bluegrass fairway. Each plot was 140 ft2, separated by 5-ft buffers on all sides; the plots were arranged in a RCB design. The ant bait was distributed evenly onto each plot using a commercial salt shaker. Dursban was applied using a 2-wheel bicycle-type boom sprayer equipped with 4 spray heads; each head was fitted with an 8005 flat fan-type nozzle and a 50-mesh strainer.

Modern methods of veterinary disinsection are based on the use of chemical agents. Efficiency of insecticides is determined by composition, form and method of use. Use of mixtures of insecticidal active substances is recommended as one of the anti-resistance strategies, with the most preferred formulations in the form of baits. The purpose of the present work was to evaluate the insecticidal efficacy of the bait composition containing ivermectin and fipronil against the adult fly of Musca domestica L.

We examined the acceptance and palatability of baits containing different contents of sodium selenite as a rodenticide, in Swiss mice under laboratory conditions. In a no-choice and choice feeding test, the animals were exposed to baits containing 0.1, 0.05, 0.025 and 0.0125% of sodium selenite. The total bait consumption by Swiss mice in the no-choice feeding test was highly negatively correlated, while total sodium selenite intake was medium-positively correlated to the sodium selenite content in the bait. In the same test, daily intakes significantly depended on the content of sodium seleni

Abstract:
The acceptability of four different bait station designs (drum, slab, tyre, corrugated iron) to rabbits was tested in the field using unpoisoned oat bait. The drum (200 L, cut longitudinally) and the raised concrete slab (60 × 60 cm) designs were the most acceptable to rabbits. The raised tyre design was unacceptable, and this was supported by later field efficacy trials that compared the drum and tyre designs using 1080 One-shot oats. The efficacy of three of these designs (drum, slab, tyre) against ‘urban’ rabbits was assessed more fully using pindone oat bait. The tyre stations were again f

Abstract:
‘Bait-resistance’ is defined as progressive decreases in bait efficacy in controlled pest species populations. Understanding the mechanisms by which bait-resistance can develop is important for the sustainable control of pests worldwide, for both wildlife conservation programs and agricultural production. Bait-resistance is influenced by both behavioural (innate and learned bait-avoidance behaviour) and physiological aspects of the target pest species (its natural diet, its body mass, the mode of action of the toxin, and the animal’s ability to biochemically break down the toxin).

Abstract:
Multilevel thresholding is segmenting the image into several distinct regions. Medical data like magnetic resonance images (MRI) contain important clinical information that is crucial for diagnosis. Hence, automatic segregation of tissue constituents is of key interest to clinician. In the chapter, standard entropies (i.e., Kapur and Tsallis) are explored for thresholding of brain MR images. The optimal thresholds are obtained by the maximization of these entropies using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the BAT optimization approach. The techniques are implemented for the segregation of various tissue constituents (i.e., cerebral spinal fluid [CSF], white matter [WM], and gray matter [GM]) from simulated images obtained from the brain web database. The efficacy of the thresholding technique is evaluated by the Dice coefficient (Dice). The results demonstrate that Tsallis' entropy is superior to the Kapur's entropy for the segmentation CSF and WM. Moreover, entropy maximization using BAT algorithm attains a higher Dice in contrast to PSO.
