Abstract

Various experimental testing procedures were undertaken in Indonesia to determine the effectiveness of a patented superficial (envelope) treatment using bifenthrin to protect radiata pine framing material from damage by two species of subterranean termites (Macrotermes gilvus and Coptotermes curvignathus) and one species of drywood termite (Cryptotermes cynocephalus). Lengths of framing material (Pinus radiata sapwood) were commercially treated to the targeted retention of 0.02% m/m of bifenthrin in the outer 2 mm depth penetration zone of the material. The treated and untreated materials were subsequently cut into test specimens and exposed to M. gilvus in the field and a semi-laboratory trial, to C. curvignathus in the laboratory and a semi-laboratory trial and to C. cynocephalus in a laboratory trial. No supplementary treatment was performed on the exposed cut ends of the treated test specimens. The results from the trials clearly demonstrated that the superficial treatment of bifenthrin seemed effective in protecting test specimens of radiata pine framing material from significant damage by Indonesia’s most notorious termite species that often causes serious economic loss to the timbers. Termites were unable to damage any of the bifenthrin-treated surfaces of test specimens. Any obser ved damage by termites, albeit minor, was in all cases confined to the exposed cut ends of test specimens. In contrast, attack by termites on the untreated control test specimens caused damage of the samples ranging from light to heavy.

Abstract

Kayu karet (Hevea brasiliensis M11ell. Arg.) sangat rentan terhadap seranggapen1sak terutama b11b11k kayu kering Heterobostrychus aegualis Wat., rqyap tanah Coptotermes curvignathus Ho/mgr. dan rayap kayu kering Cryptotermes cynocephalus Light. Untuk menghindarkan serangan serangga perusak tersebut, kayu karet harus diberiperlateuan tertentu. Beberapa percobaan eftkasi penggunaan beberapa jenis babanpe lapis (cat), yang banyak tersedia di pasaran, telah dilakukan untuk pencegahan serangan serangga perusak tersebut. Untuk penelitian terhadap bubuk kayu kering, papan kayu karet yang telah kering oven segera dipotong menjadi contoh uji ukuran 10 x 5 x 2,5 cm. Permulaan contoh uji dilabur sebagian atau seluruhnya dengan bahan pelapis. Contoh uji tersebut kemudian disimpan secara acak di antara tumpukan kayu karet yang telah diserang bubuk kayu kering agar terjadi penularan. Contoh uji yang lain, ukuran 2,5 x 2,5 x 2,5 cm, setelah dilapisi seluruh permukaannya dengan baban-baban tersebut diumpankan ke rayap tanah atau rayap kayu kering masing-masing selama 4 dan 12 minggu. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelapisan seluruh permukaan dapat meningkatkan daya tahan kayu karet terhadap serangan bubuk kayu kering. Pelapisan dengan Melamine memberikan hasil terbaik, dalam waktu lebih dari tiga tahun belum menunjukkan adanya kerusakan yang berarti Namun demikian, perlakuan tersebut ternyata tidak efektif untuk pencegahan serangan kedua jenis rayap tersebut.
