Springtails
3rd most abundant species observed on cereal and carrot baits in the field (Sherley et al. 1999)- Most abundant invertebrate found on non-toxic cereal baits placed in the bush (Wakelin 2000).

Millipedes
5 genera observed on carrot and cereal baits placed in the field (Sherley et al. 1999)- No 1080 residues measured in the tissue up to 16 weeks after an aerial cereal bait operation (Eason et al. 1993b).

Flies
Most abundant visitor to carrot & cereal baits in trees (Shrubshall 1999)- No research located about 1080 transfer to maggots feeding on poisoned possum carcasses.

Cockroaches
An effect of 1080 aerial operation on population numbers difficult to pin-point but seasonal timing of drop would minimise impacts (McIntyre 1987)- Non-lethal exposure may effect behavour (McIntyre 1987)
- Based on amount of bait in crop the risk of secondary poisoning to small-medium sized birds possible - but dependent on a number of variables (e.g., feeding habits, meal size, species sensitivity, ability to avoid cockroach escape response) (McIntyre 1987)
- Number of cockroaches unaffected by simulated aerial application of 1080 baits (Spurr & Berben 2004)
- Low concentrations of 1080 measured in the tissue up to 3 weeks after a cereal bait aerial operation (Eason et al. 1993b)
- Observed feeding on cereal and carrot baits placed in trees (Shrubshall 1999)
- No change in numbers found in artificial refuges after an aerial carrot operation (Powlesland et al. 2005).
