II. Background
Termites are a substantial economic
threat to property owners. Annually, $5
billion is spend to treat termite
infestations and repair the damage
termites cause. In the United States, the
major pestiferous termites are
subterranean termites (e.g.,
Reticulitermes spp. and Coptotermes
formosanus). Termites can cause
substantial damage because:
1. They consume the primary
materials used in construction; and
2. Their presence in a structure can go
undetected for years. For the most part,
property owners are incapable of
assessing the risk of termite attack.
Pesticides intended to reduce the risk
of termite infestation or treat structures
already infested are classified as
termiticides. Termiticides can be
applied as a preventative or remedial
treatment. Preventative treatments are
applied before an active termite
infestation is known to occur.
Preventative treatments can be further
divided into two sub-categories: preconstruction and post-construction. Preconstruction treatments are made prior
to the installation of the final grade
during the construction process. Postconstruction treatments are made after
the installation of the final grade. In
neither case are termites treated
directly; instead, a long-lasting, stable,
relatively immobile chemical barrier
(i.e., repellent and/or lethal pesticide) is
employed to exclude termites from the
structure by establishing horizontal and
vertical barriers to termite infestation.
This approach generally has been
successful, especially when combined
with removal of conditions conducive to
termite infestation. Remedial treatment
generally involves treating the
infestation directly with a termiticide
designed to both kill the termites
present at the time of application and
exclude the rest of the colony from the
structure by establishing a chemical soil
barrier.
The economic importance of termites
and the complexities of proper
termiticide application have led to the
special consideration of termiticides at
the time of registration. These products
are unique in that they provide relief or
protection from a pest that can be
difficult to detect and treat.
Furthermore, the biology of termites
(i.e., number of colony members, cryptic

nature, and amount of material
consumed), the potential economic cost
posed by damage resulting from a
termite infestation, and the inability to
reliably determine the effectiveness of a
treatment at the time of application
makes it important to verify the
performance of products labeled for
structural protection. Thus, it has been
Agency policy that registrants
demonstrate in nationwide trials that
products labeled as soil applied liquid
termiticides provide structural
protection under simulated field
conditions for at least 5 years.
EPA is requesting comments at a
public workshop on:
1. The relevance of the existing
810.3600 testing guideline scope and
factors to be included in a revision;
2. The applicability of the existing test
guideline to novel product chemistries;
and
3. Approaches to resolve the disparity
between soil applied liquid termiticides
and testing of other pesticides which
may provide structural protection.
