Chemical characterization of pyrolysis liquids from Dyera costulata and evaluation of their bio-efficiency against subterranean termites, Coptotermes curvignathus

Wood degradation caused by fungi and insects is a major problem for the rubberwood industry. This study evaluated the potential of using pyrolysis liquids (wood vinegar) from Dyera costulata as a natural biocide against termites. The infestation rates of Coptotermes curvignathus on filter paper samp...
