| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses agriculture termite infestations in Texas turfgrass. Explains that "agriculture termites are usually found in large fields in rural areas...They are most attracted to pasture areas used for grass or hay production, especially costal bermudagrass fields." States that "agriculture termites are being found in urban areas such as San Antonio because the drought has forced them closer to the soil surface in search of moisture and nourishment...Agriculture termites in urban areas pose no threat to structures, but in large numbers can damage or destroy turfgrass and may require control." Concludes that "because agriculture and subterranean termites look so much alike to the untrained eye, people who are uncertain as to the type of termite they have on their property should consult a professional for identification." |
