  • Resistance Status of House Flies (Diptera: Muscidae) from Southeastern Nebraska Beef Cattle Feedlots to Selected Insecticides
    Journal of economic entomology, 2003
    Co-Authors: Paula Marçon, John B. Campbell, Gustave D. Thomas, Blair D. Siegfried, Steven R. Skoda
    Abstract:

    The status of resistance to three insecticides (permethrin, Stirofos, and methoxychlor), relative to a laboratory-susceptible colony, was evaluated in field populations of house flies, Musca domestica L., collected from two beef cattle feedlots in southeastern Nebraska. Topical application and residual exposure to treated glass surfaces were suitable methods for determining the resistance status of house flies to permethrin, Stirofos, or methoxychlor. However, in most cases, residual exposure was more sensitive in resistance detection (i.e., higher resistance ratios). The field populations tested were moderately resistant to permethrin (RR = 4.9-fold and RR = 7.3-fold, for topical application and residual exposure, respectively) and extremely resistant to Stirofos and methoxychlor (not accurately quantifiable because of low mortality at the highest possible concentrations or doses). Probable explanations for the resistance status of these house fly populations and implications for global feedlot fly management are discussed.

  • Susceptibility of stable flies (Diptera: Muscidae) from southeastern Nebraska beef cattle feedlots to selected insecticides and comparison of 3 bioassay techniques
    Journal of economic entomology, 1997
    Co-Authors: Paula Marçon, Gustave D. Thomas, Blair D. Siegfried, John B. Campbell
    Abstract:

    Insecticide susceptibility of field populations of stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), was assayed using 3 exposure techniques: treated filter papers, treated glass petri dishes, and topical applications. Both topical applications and residual exposure to treated glass surfaces were suitable for testing susceptibility of stable flies to permethrin, Stirofos, or methoxychlor. Residues on filter papers yielded inconsistent results with Stirofos and methoxychlor. Significant concentration-mortality regression lines were generated with permethrin residues on filter papers, but approximately 1,000 times more insecticide was required to produce a toxic response when compared with permethrin residues on glass. Because of higher variability in response and the greater amount of insecticide required, residues on filter papers do not appear appropriate to test insecticide susceptibility in stable flies. Paired comparisons of field (F) and susceptible (S) stable flies resulted in field to susceptible ratios significantly > 1.0 only when the flies were treated topically, which suggests that topical application is more sensitive than residues on glass for the insecticides tested. Topical treatment with permethrin resulted in one FS(LD90) of 1.8-fold. Topical treatment with methoxychlor resulted in one FS(LD90) of 3.4-fold. However, the magnitude of these ratios is not larger than the significant differences observed within the susceptible laboratory colony from one generation to another. Intense exposure to insecticides is not known to have occurred in these field populations, indicating that the observed differences are the result of natural variation among stable fly populations and unrelated to prior selection with insecticides.

  • Stable fly (Diptera: Muscidae) insecticide resistance in Kansas cattle feedlots.
    Journal of Economic Entomology, 1994
    Co-Authors: J. E. Cilek, Gerald L. Greene
    Abstract:

    Insecticide resistance to two organophosphates, dichlorovos and Stirofos, and a pyrethroid, permethrin, was detected in stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), collected from eight cattle feedlots in southwestern Kansas. The frequency of resistant stable flies ranged from 2 to 100% depending on population and insecticide tested. No resistance was detected to the chlorinated hydrocarbon methoxychlor. Generally, the prevalence of resistance in each fly population in decreasing order was dichlorvos > Stirofos > permethrin. Resistant stable flies were found in some feedlots where insecticide use was absent or minimal (i.e., application once per year or less) and was suspected to have resulted from localized dispersal of insecticide-resistant flies from nearby feedlots.
