Narangba #Queensland #Pyriproxyfen, a juvenile hormone analog insecticide, can have negative effects on:
- Ground-nesting bees:
- Impaired development and survival
- Reduced colony growth
- Altered behavior
- Impacts on pollination
- Indigenous ants:
- Impacts on ecosystem balance
- Aquatic life:
- Frogs:
- Accumulation in water bodies
- Deformities
- Reduced immune function
- Increased susceptibility to disease
- Fish:
- Bioaccumulation
- Altered behavior
- Reduced feeding activity
- Increased mortality
- Aquatic ecosystems:
- Disruption of food chain and ecosystem balance
- Decline of sensitive aquatic species
Rules for using pyriproxyfen in rain:
- Avoid application during rain
- Wait for suitable weather conditions
- Avoid application on wet surfaces
Pyriproxyfen can potentially impact non-target species, including ground-nesting bees, indigenous ants, and aquatic life. It’s essential to consider alternative management strategies that minimise harm to these species and ecosystems, and to follow the rules for using pyriproxyfen in rain to reduce environmental contamination.
