Sterile male fire ants eyed as potential control method
Texas entomologist Dr. Aiey C. F. Hung reports naturally occurring sterile male imported fire ants linked to colonies with many queens. If causes are identified sterile males could be released to curb reinfestation and slow spread of the red imported fire ant, first found in Texas in 1953 and now in 100 counties. Researchers aim to genetic control, environmental safety, and alternative measures amid insecticide concerns.
