Evaluation Crushed feed substrates
In the crushed feed bioassay, the mixture had the highest mean of termite attraction (772,25±41.7a) while blue citronella grass had the lowest (4.37 ±0.26g) the control had (1,00±0.09g). The termites were attracted to the crushed feed substrate p value was very significant p<0.05. When crushed feed is used, the feed attractiveness was higher (772,25±41.7a) compared to uncrushed (676.500± 41.7 a). Tarayre et al., (2015) recorded that wood-feeding termites can digest up to 85 and 83 of glucosyl and Xylosyl residues from lignocellulose, respectively. Predigested diets will give termites ample time to forage faster than uncrushed feed substrates.
