ARS scientists in Hilo, Hawaii are collaborating with ARS researchers at
Weslaco, Texas, to investigate phloxine B, better known as the FDA-approved red
dye number 28. The dye, might prove a safe, effective alternative to today's
malathion insecticide. Medflies often share regurgitated food. This helps spread
the insecticidal dye-and-bait blend through the population.
