Termites feed through good vibrations
Discovery that termites use vibrations to choose the wood they eat may provide opportunities to new methods of reducing infestations in homes and also may provide insights into the "cocktail party effect" of signal processing ?how to ignore most noise but have some signals that trigger attention ?that may prove useful in artificial intelligence. CSIRO entomologist Theo Evans says laborato...Cousin of Asian super termite invades Florida
Another highly destructive termite -- a close relative of the Formosan "super termite" that's gnawing its way across many Southern states -- has become established in South Florida, according to University of Florida researchers. "The Asian subterranean termite, a major pest in tropical areas such as Brazil and the West Indies, was not considered to be a serious threat to Florida until now...Bee mites suppress bee immunity, open door for viruses and bacteria
A non-native bee mite is causing the dramatic and sudden collapse of bee colonies across the country, but Penn State researchers believe they have found the combination of factors that triggers colony deaths which includes suppression of the bee immune system by the mites. The Varroa destructor mite is a honey bee parasite that feeds much like a tick on the body of a bee. The mites are ab...Fungus Effective Against Winged Termites
Most signs of spring, like budding trees, are worth celebrating. But for many in the South, the annual emergence of fertile, winged termites swarming furiously to scatter and search for mates isn't one of them. In New Orleans, as the swirling, airborne masses of termites become more conspicuous, researchers with the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) are busy developing a biopesticide th...Fungus-farming termites descend from an African rain forest Eve
Agriculture is not unique to humans: some insect groups have also evolved this way of life. One such group is the fungus-farming termites, which cultivate fungi as food inside their nests. Such termites can be found in both rain forest and savannah habitats in the Old World tropics, from Africa to Asia. But as researchers report this week, a combination of DNA sequence analysis and computer model...Mite at Biology Products

Electrocardiograms plays a limited role
A recent report indicates that Negative exercise electrocardiograph tests should be the first-line approach to risk stratification of hypertensive patients with chest pain. Even though negative findings identified those at low risk, positive findings could not distinguish levels of risk. The research also indicated that pharmacological stress echocardiography yielded diagnostic and progno...Hope for Dust Mite Allergy Sufferers
Swiss biotechnology company Cytos has developed a vaccine for dust mite allergy sufferers.Dust mites found in ‘every home’ eat flakes of skin, in addition to other things//. They live in bedding, upholstered furniture and even stuffed toys. Allergies are reactions to the feces and body parts left by these insects. These reactions can even lead to asthma. Cytos has claimed that their vac...Effective Vaccine Found For Dust Mite Allergy
House dust mite allergen is a common trigger of asthma symptoms in people with allergic asthma. Dust mites, tiny bugs which feed on scales of human skin, are important cause of allergic reactions. //The proteins present in the excrement of the mites attack the respiratory passages causing symptoms similar to that of asthma. Hence the development of the dust mite vaccine is of a great help...Sleep in' dirty – Unwashed duvets become a hotbed for mite
This might be a wake up call to get the duvets washed and clean. Research has found out that many Britons do not wash their duvets even in six months, and these could// be the most happening places for mites, filth and even dead skin. A survey conducted in many households revealed that two in five Britons confessed to sleeping on duvets unwashed for 6 months. The dust mites and filt...Dust mites use Duvets as their Haven
Recent research has revealed that duvets used by most Britons are packed with dust mites, fungus and skin scales.// On analysis of about ten typical duvets it was found to contain up to 20,000 live house dust mites in addition to bacteria and fungal spores. In fact analysis of an 11-year unwashed duvet revealed over an ounce and a half of debris including skin scales and house dust mite...Mite at Medicine Products
