Effects of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) on Worker Behavior of red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invcita

The effect of hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) activated under visible light on worker behavior of <em>Solenopsis invcita</em> was studied with the potter spray tower method. The results showed that greater than 10 mg/L HMME activated under visible light could reduce the walking,...
