PAS_1 "Cultivating Ricinus communis on the plots attacked by termites. The next cropping season the termite population is reduced considerably. Also castor press cake can be incorporated into the soil." https://krishi.icar.gov.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/2297/1/Termite%20control%20by%20without%20chemical.pdf
PAS_2 "Primary screening of the extracts, oil and milky latex shows that C.procera, L.camara, A.bracteata, R.communis (oil) and E.tirucalli (latex) are having significant effects and 100% mortality was recorded in termite population. Dose of the formulation were also standardized in lab conditions. A dose of 300µl of C.procera, A.bracteata, R.communis (oil) and E.tirucalli (latex) was lethal and 100% mortality was recorded."
