Feasibility of Termite Control System Using
Physical Barrier
- Effect of the shape and surface of particles
on the penetration activity of termites -
When termites penetrated the physical barrier,
they took off the small size of particles
by their mandible, maxillae, maxillary pale
and labial pale, and carried away from the
the physical barrier, and they passed through
the gaps between large size of particles
that were larger than the head of the termite
and penetrated the physical barrier. In this
study, it was investigated the effects of
the shape and surface inequality of the particles
on the penetration activity of termites.
