The results show that no-choice experiments revealed toxic properties of all investigated extracts by the contact against Coptotermes gestroi and Coptotermes curvignathus. However, high termite mortality was only achieved with Madhuca utilis extracts and methanol solvents.</p><p><img src="http://revistas.ubiobio.cl/public/site/images/visepul/pdf_icon_copy62.png" alt="">&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="http://revistas.ubiobio.cl/index.php/MCT/article/view/2977/3019">PDF</a> <img src="http://revistas.ubiobio.cl/public/site/images/visepul/26X261.png" alt=""><a href="http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&amp;pid=S0718-221X2017000400417&amp;lng=es&amp;nrm=iso&amp;tlng=en">XML</a></p> ER -
