Into Countries Where Extermi-
nation of the Fly Is Desired.

Capt. Percy L. Jones of the Army
Medical Corps has reported that flies
are comparatively rare in the Philip
pines. because of species of ant which
consumes the larvae of the fly with
av1dity. Upon watching these ants
attack fly larvae lie says, lit is in
teresting to note that they do SO in
way which proves that they are no
novices at the procedure. One will at
tack an extremity and, apparently, bite
it, and as soon as the larva begins to
coil and makes effort to escape num-
bers of others will Immediately jump
upon it, and in the course of few
moments the larVa will be apparently
dead. l believe that the ant introduces
some venom in the act of biting. formic
acid in character. which preserves the
larva as food until such time as the
ant needs it-cans it, in other words.
AS soon as the struggles of the larVa
have ceased they haul it off to their
nests and return for others. In many
instances 1 have seen them carry away
pupae. 1t will be interesting for the
reader to procure few maggots and
place them over an ant bed. SO far
as is known, this species of ant is not
found in the United States, and. in
deed is not yet classified. Capt. Jones
has considered the practicability OF in
Producing it into countries where the
determination of the fly is destined to
become an important feature of santa
ton. This ant is said to be an ener-
eetic destroyer of bedbugs as well as
flies.
