Summary, etc. <p><em>Crotolaria burhia</em><span> Buch.-Ham. ex Benth. and </span><em>Anacardium occidentale </em><span>L.</span><em> </em><span>known for their insecticidal properties were tested for their efficacy against the subterranean termite, </span><em>Odontotermes obesus </em><span>(Rambur) in wheat and sugarcane fields at Institute of Pesticide Formulation Technology, Gurgaon, Haryana during 2015. Bait mixed with 10 % root extracts of </span><em>C. burhia</em><span> placed near 6 termitaria along the bunds of wheat field resulted in drastic decline of termite population ranging from 747.22 on 1</span><sup>st</sup><span> day to 289.28 numbers on 12</span><sup>th</sup><span> day after baiting. Total number of termite catch in 6 termitaria along the bunds of wheat fields after baiting period was 6704.61 whereas in untreated check it was 15078.00. Bait mixed with 5 % leaf dust of </span><em>A. occidentale</em><span> in sugarcane field recorded a minimum termite catch of 261.22 numbers after baiting period of 4 days, while the number was 1095.83 during prebaiting period. A total average termite population of 5655.72 was recorded in </span><em>A. occidentale</em><span> treated bait against 8657.67 numbers in untreated check. Termite numbers in untreated check ranged from 1277.67 to 2031.67 in wheat field and 530 to 1640 in sugarcane field.</span></p>
