When using antibiotics to control termites in China, avermectin and its derivative ivermectin are often used.

Avermectin was first used to control parasitic nematodes. In the laboratory test, avermectin at the concentration of 20 mg/kg can kill termites, and the death peak of termites is 4 ~ 5 days after application, with a mortality rate of 32%. When the exposure dose of each termite is 0.03 1.2 g, it will produce semi-lethal effect and will not pollute the natural environment.

Ivermectin was used to control Lateolabrax japonicus and Reticulitermes flavipectus in Taiwan Province. When the concentration of the solution reaches 25 mg/L, it has good insecticidal effect. When the concentration is 100 mg/L, the mortality of termites can reach 100% after 24 hours. This kind of experiment is rarely used in the field, and it needs a high dose of medicine and sealing to effectively penetrate termites.

Main harm of termites

Termites damage buildings, especially brick and wood structures. Because it is hidden in the wood structure, it destroys or damages its bearing points, which often leads to the sudden collapse of the house, causing great concern. In China, termites that harm buildings mainly include; Domestic termites, termites and other genera.

The species of domestic termites are the most serious termites that damage buildings. Its characteristics are strong diffusion, large population and rapid destruction, which can cause huge losses in a short time. Termites can eat all kinds of field crops, cash crops, trees, fruit trees and seedlings. The harm of black-winged soil termites to river dams is more serious, and termites have caused great losses to houses, warehouses, buried plastic cables and so on.
