    New chemical kills 95% of termites without harming humans

    Scientists have discovered a chemical called bistrifluron that kills 95% of termites without harming humans. The chemical prevents drywood termites from forming new exoskeletons during molting, killing entire colonies. This method could provide longer-lasting protection as termites spread into new areas.
