The UK termite eradication programme: Justification and implementation
2000 - IRG/WP 00-10373

Surveys and monitoring revealed a discrete, highly localised infestation extending over some 2400 square metres. There is some evidence that the termites were imported accidentally possibly more than 30 years previously. With...
