EVAULATION OF INSECTICIDES FOR WESTERN DRYWOOD TERMITE CONTROL, 2008 [PDF]
Six insecticides were tested for their effectiveness as localized treatments against Incisitermes minor populations contained in naturally infested boards. Candidate boards were collected from homes and decks from several cities in California. Boards were determined active for drywood termites using portable detection equipment that included termite ...

Abstract Cryptotermes brevis (Walker) (Blattodea: Kalotermitidae) is one of the most destructive drywood termites that attack moisture‐protected timber in service. Heat treatment has been studied to control these termites, but the low thermal conductivity of wood can result in prolonged treatment times and the need for high temperatures to eliminate ...

Evolution of obligate asexuality in termites with mixed‐sex societies
The evolution of obligate asexuality is thought to be prevented in animals whose males play crucial roles beyond the contribution of gametes. While obligate asexuality had not until recently been observed in termites whose colonies commonly comprise both male and female reproductives, workers, and soldiers, all‐female asexual populations of the termite

Genes underlying reproductive division of labor in termites, with comparisons to social Hymenoptera
All social insects are characterized by a reproductive division of labor. Within a colony only a few individuals reproduce (queens and in termites, also a king) while the large majority (workers and soldiers) forgo reproduction, at least temporarily. The
