This second edition reflects the changing emphasis in termite identification and control. The first step in coping with termites is still the location and treatment of their nests but there is greater emphasis on barrier treatments to exclude them from buildings, and the need to install barriers during construction no matter where the building is sited.This book is well illustrated with black and white photographs and the text carefully discusses control and precautions necessary for all buildings. While referring to the Canberra region and south coast of NSW, the lessons to be learned will be

This book is the first attempt for 30 years to produce a research-oriented review of the biology of termites. There is a strong emphasis on the gains made from modern technologies and contemporary concepts, for example the molecular and morphological phylogenies, social theory, the culture of fastidious microorganisms, microelectrode probing, natural stable isotope analysis and protein purification. Evolutionary, behavioural and developmental relationships with cockroaches and other social insects are considered in detail, while no fewer than 7 chapters address the highly complex and perhaps u

Soil microorganisms play a major role in the degradation and recycling of organic material. Microbes are involved in the food web and strongly contribute to soil fertility. In the past, attention was mainly directed towards free-living or particle-bound microorganisms, while the role of intestinal microbes of soil animals has been neglected. For the first time, "Intestinal Microorganisms of Termites and Other Invertebrates" focuses on the microbes in gut systems of soil animals. It starts with a profound overview of the biology of soil invertebrates. A major part deals with the gut microbiota
