In tests with 6 oils, soybean oil (once refined) was the most attractive to the workers; however, it was not significantly more attractive than tuna oil and sunflower oil. A comparison of the attractiveness of the comercial fire ant baits Amdro (hydramethylnon) and Logic (fenoxycarb) with a peanut butter standard indicated that Amdro was not significantly different; however, Logíc was significantly less attractive. Field bait acceptance studiea of W. auropunctata were conducted in the Galapagos Islands with the following: the fíre ant baits, Amdro and Logic; the Pharaoh's ant baits, Raid Max Ant Bait (N-ethyl Perfluorooctanesulfonaruide) and Maxforce Pharoah Ant Killer (hydra• methylnon); and Iard, peanut butter, peanut butter oil, honey, and honey:water (1:1). Resulta indicated that the most attractive substance to workers was Amdro; however, it was not sir,nificantly düferent from peanut butter, lard or rai max ant bait
