Final Report 2009 Field Evaluations of Localized Treatments for Control of Drywood Termite Infestations in California Structural Pest Control Board, Structural Pest
2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Six insecticides were tested for their effectiveness against natural field infestations of Incisitermes minor (Hagen) found in homes and commercial structures from fourteen cities. A joint University and pest control industry team inspected dozens of homes and structures as possible candidates for the study. Those chosen, presented a diverse assortment of garages, attics, de...
متن کاملEvaluation of a Localized Treatment Technique Using Three Ready-to-Use Products Against the Drywood Termite Incisitermes snyderi (Kalotermitidae) in Naturally Infested Lumber
Twenty-one boards infested with drywood termites were examined for activity using a Termatrac® motion detector. Termite galleries were identified using a Resistograph drill and treated with one of three ready-to-use (RTU) products. Results indicated that the Termatrac was excellent at locating termite activity but provided 9.5% false negatives. The Resistograph located termite galleries with an...
متن کاملEfficacy of Localized Chemical Treatments for Cryptotermes brevis (Isoptera: Kalotermitidae) in Naturally Infested Lumber
Localized injection of insecticides into termite galleries in infested wood represents an alternative to whole-structure fumigation for drywood termite control. The efficacy of this method is limited, however, by the use of repellant insecticides and the difficulty of locating drywood termite colonies. The present study addressed both issues by the use of an experimental acoustic emissions (AE)...
متن کاملThe Potential of Using Acoustical Emission to Detect Termites Within Wood
Acoustical emission (AE) equipment was used to detect drywood termites Incisitermes minor in ponderosa pine Pinus ponderosa blocks under laboratory conditions. Using a 60 kHz transducer, AE levels were recorded for 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 termites per block. The association of AE and varying numbers of drywood termites best fit an exponential curve. These data suggest that the detection capabiliti...
متن کاملSubterranean termite invaSion originS
Subterranean termites in the genus Coptotermes Holmgren are structural pests that have become globally distributed beyond their native range in Southeast Asia. Because of their destructive nature, it is useful to understand the pathways of their spread. Additionally, phylogenetic analysis of evolutionary relationships may lead to increased accuracy of insecticide-based management on the basis t...
