Heterotermes indicola, is a species of subterranean termite of the genus Heterotermes. It is native to India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. It damages to timber in buildings and is one of the most destructive termites in urban and agricultural areas in the world.[1] Soldiers are about 4.05-4.89mm long.[2] Extracts of garlic[3] and Calotrpis procera[4] are known to have Termiticidal effects on H. indicola.
Host plants
Termites are known to attack and feed on many economically important plant species in larger scale to reduce their harvest.[5]
