is a biological insecticide for the control of the army ant, especially atta cephalotes species. It consists of isolated spores of beauveria bassiana and trichoderma viride suspended in aqueous solution. The bioinsecticide allows the spores to adhere to the ant cuticle, secreting proteases that digest the cuticle and infect the hemocele, thus causing the death of the ant due to the toxicity of the toxin, and also attacks the ant’s food source.
