No abstract available at this timeAuthorsS. Spring, A.K. MilesEffects of mosquito larvicide on mallard ducklings and prey
We determined the effects of a commonly used mosquito (Culicidae) larvicide (California Golden Bear Oil??, also GB-1111) on body mass and survival of mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) ducklings and on target and nontarget invertebrates. Field studies conducted on natural ponds located in salt marshes in south San Francisco Bay indicated that GB-1111 had an initial impact on potential invertebrate preyAuthorsA.K. Miles, S.P.
