The preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing a termite palatable
cellulose material, wheat
bran,
gypsum,
cane sugar and water to prepare a culture material, packaging and sterilizing the culture material, inoculating the
Irpex lacteus, culturing until hyphae cover all the culture material, and carrying out freeze-
drying to obtain the
Irpex lacteus living
fungus termite bait. The
hypha living body state is kept for
trapping odontotermes formosanus to eat. Experiments of three indoor devices show that the food calling effect of the
Irpex lacteus bait block on odontotermes formosanus is obviously superior to that of a sterile culture material contrast bait block.
Field tests show that the eating efficiency of the Irpex lacteus living
fungus bait is obviously superior to that of natural
plant bait circulating in the current market. Meanwhile, breathable tubular and bag-shaped packaging is convenient to store and carry, and hyphae can survive for a long time. The Irpex lacteus living
fungus bait is good in termite
trapping effect, high in eating speed, not prone to being polluted by infectious microbes and suitable for monitoring,
trapping and killing odontotermes formosanus on dams and gardens.
