Analysis of Cuticular Lipids of the Pharaoh Ant (Monomorium pharaonis) and Their Selective Adsorption on Insecticidal Zeolite Powders

The pharaoh ant is a notorious and hard to eradicate pest, which poses a threat in hospitals, spreading pathogens and contaminating sterile equipment. When applied on ants, zeolites adsorb part of their epicuticular wax layer. The ants are then vulnerable to desiccation, since this layer regulates w...
