Bioefficacy of diflubenzuron against subterranean termite
View through CrossRef
BACKGROUD & OBJECTIVE: Subterranian termite is a structure-infesting termite that accounts for a significantproportion of the damage wherever it occurs. One sustainable control strategy that usually helps to reduce the damage ofsubterranean termite is the use of insecticides which are safe to the environment. Hence, bioefficacy study ofdiflubenzuron, an environ friendly, chitin synthesis inhibitor was evaluated against subterranean termite.METHODOLOGY: It was achieved by testing by testing the three different concentrations of diflubenzuron againstsubterranean termite as per IS 4873. RESULTS: Diflubenzuron was found to be effective against subterranean termite.CONCLUSION: From the results of this study, it has been found that diflubenzuron at 1% concentration rate providedexcellent control of termite. This is the first report on the use of diflubenzuron in the glue line to control the termite.
