The Potential of Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) as Artificial Bait for Subteranean Termite: Pisoptera

This study is to create effective artificial bait for termite using empty fruit bunches (EFB) with additional active ingredient (Imidacloprid). For in-situ experiment, there are two experiments. For the first experiment of different concentrations with and without skin, the concentrations used are 0...
