    It is predominantly biotransformed to perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), [2] but partly also to perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). [3] [4] Sulfluramid has been banned for almost all insecticidal applications; the only use still allowed by annex B of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants is a bait to control leaf-cutting ants.

  3. Leafcutter ant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leafcutter_ant

    Leaf cutter ants are sensitive enough to adapt to the fungi's reaction to different plant material, apparently detecting chemical signals from the fungus. If a particular type of leaf is toxic to the fungus, the colony will no longer collect it. The only two other groups of insects to use fungus-based agriculture are ambrosia beetles and ...

  4. Imidacloprid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imidacloprid

    Imidacloprid also exhibits excellent translaminar movement in plants and can penetrate the leaf cuticle and move readily into leaf tissue. [29] Since imidacloprid is effective at very low levels (nanogram and picogram), it can be applied at much lower concentrations (e.g., 0.05–0.125 lb/acre or 55–140 g/ha) than other insecticides.
