The primary categories of termite control include chemical termite control, physical and mechanical termite control, and biological termite control. Chemical termite control employs chemicals to eliminate termites and is applicable to various termite species, including damp-wood termites, subterranean termites, dry-wood termites, among others. This method finds application in various sectors such as commercial, residential, agriculture, and more.
