John Porter worked with Tim Holler, an entomologist with the USDA-APHIS/PPQ in Gainesville, FL. John conducted experiments targeted at improving the efficacy of Caribbean Fruit Fly bait stations. Several types of bait stations were tested in secure field situations. These bait stations will be used for control of this serious pest in sensitive areas such as hospitals and school zones.
