Abstract

Some chemicals that have been proposed as attractants or FEEDING STIMULANTS for termites were investigated to determine their effect on food consumption by the subterranean termite MICROCEROTERMES DIVERSUS Silvestri in the laboratory. Paired choice feeding tests were conducted where consumption of chemically treated and solvent-treated filter paper disks were compared for each chemical over a range of concentrations. With the exception of HYDROQUINONE, other chemicals acted as feeding stimulant at I or 2 concentrations in this study. HYDROQUINONE acted as a feeding deterrent at concentrations of 200 and 500 ppm. Adding LECITHIN to filter paper at concentrations of 1000 and 5000 ppm significantly increased consumption compared with control filter paper. Significantly more filter papers treated with L- ASPARTIC ACID or L- GLUTAMIC ACID was consumed by M. diversus Silvestri at concentration of 1000 ppm than was control filter paper treated with water. Filter papers dipped in 0.8% UREA solution were consumed significantly more than untreated filter papers. Collectively, these assays suggest that some food additives especially nitrogenous compounds may increase the efficacy of baits when used against termites in the field conditions.
