Woods unfavorable to Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar) in a force-feeding test on heartwood blocks of 11 American coniferous genera included Port-Orford-cedar, eastern redcedar, western redcedar, baiacypress, redwood, and ponderosa pine. The same woods were not attacked in a choice test of all the woods except Port-Orford-cedar, which was omitted because of its toxicity. Only one of two sources of western redcedar was unfavorable in both force and choice tests; one source of western hemlock was not attacked in the choice test. In force-feeding tests on sawdusts, solventextracted sawdusts, and the corresponding wood extracts on filter paper, overall survival was best on test materials of Douglas-fir, subalpine fir, and western larch, followed by western hemlock and Engelmann spruce Many of the extracts prepared from the unfavorable woods contained substances detrimental to termite survival.
