Termites are social insects that play an important role in the decomposition and nutrient turnover. In addition, termites are also categorized as pests that eat wood or materials composed of cellulose. Some form of control one of them has been done by making biopesticides. Various types of raw materials have been used from agricultural, plantation and forestry crop groups. Termite mortality is one indicator to determine extract bioactivity by calculating the percentage of the number of termites that died after being given treatment at a certain time. Compound content bioactive substances such as alkaloids, phenolics and other chemicals that can be used to kill and controlling insects in the environment. This study examines the effectiveness teak litter extract and pine litter extract with various solvents against wood termites through experimental research activities in the laboratory. The content of teak litter extract levels and pine litter obtained by 2.5%. Based on the termite mortality value test, the highest toxicity in the ethyl acetate extract, which is at week 3, it has reached 100% at a concentration of 1% which is. In addition, based on testing the retention value of the test paper, The highest percentage of weight loss was in the control, followed by the n-hexane fraction 49.55%. Whereas in testing the level of termite consumption, the highest percentage was in the aquades fraction.

Insects are the most abundant group of animals compared to other animal groups, this is related to the high adaptability of insects to various types of habitats. This study aims to analyze the diversity of soil surface insects and arboreal insects (nocturnal and diurnal) on bitti stands (Vitex cofassus) in Belabori Village, Parangloe District, Gowa Regency. Data collection was carried out for 2 months starting from October to November 2019 using 3 trap techniques (Sweep Net, Pitfall Trap, Light Trap). The results showed that the insects caught each consisted of 8 orders, 19 families, 28 types and a total of 231 individuals divided into 45 soil-surface insects, 163 nocturnal insects and 21 diurnal insects. The order most commonly found in ground-level insects is the order Hymenoptera while the arboreal insects (Nocturnal and Diurnal) are the order Coleoptera. The Shanon-Wieiner (H’) diversity index category in bitti stands in ground-level insects and arboreal insects (Nocturnal and Diurnal) is classified as a medium category and the Margalef species wealth index (Dmg) is classified as a low category.
