Termite biocontrol
Termite biocontrol involves using natural enemies or biological agents to manage termite populations. This method includes introducing beneficial organisms like certain fungi, nematodes, or microorganisms that specifically target and inhibit termites’ growth or survival. The goal is to reduce termite damage sustainably, minimizing chemical pesticide use. Biocontrol methods are environmentally friendly, targeting termites without harming other beneficial insects or the ecosystem. It is a strategic part of integrated pest management, aimed at controlling infestations effectively while promoting ecological balance.
