Abstract

A Termiticide that is applied to the soil treatment method, one of the methods for preventing termites in Korea's wooden cultural properties, will be subjected to the leaching of the effective ingredient in treated soil by the moisture behavior of rain. As a result, termiticide is deteriorated and needs to be reprocessed, but the standards and evaluation methods are nonexistent in korea. Accordingly, a basic indoor evaluation measure was proposed for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the termiticide chamber and the calculation of the reprocessing period. First, avoidance and contact toxicity were assessed at two concentrations of the same termiticide as a method for assessing termiticide suitability. The evaluation of mortality revealed that the soil termiticide used in this experiment was non-repellent, and that death from contact was confirmed. Afterwards, artificial rainfall and soil penetration tests were conducted to determine efficacy of termiticide in soil and the approximate reprocessing period was calculated by comparing the weather data. Persistence evaluation revealed perforation by termites after continuous water exposure of more than about 160 to 170mm of water injection condition. Based on the results, compared with weather data for the last five years, the termiticide of concentration used in this experiment is expected to remain effective for about one year if treated after September. The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for the establishment of a manual for the selection of termiticide for soil treatment by calculating the efficacy for termite mortality and the duration of the leaching effectiveness by water behavior in soil.

국내 목조문화재 흰개미 방제법 중 하나인 토양처리법에 적용되는 약제는 우천이나 지중의 수분 거동에 의해 방의 효력 저하가 진행되어 재처리가 요구되지만 현재 해당 기준 및 평가 방안은 전무한 실정이다. 이에 따라 약제의 방의 효력 평가 및 재처리 기간 산정을 위한 기초 실내 평가 방안을 제시하였다. 먼저 약제 방의력 평가를 위해 흰개미에 대한 기피성 및 접촉 독성을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 이번 실험에 사용된 약제는 비기피성이며, 접촉에 의한 사멸이 확인되었다. 이후 모의 강우 실험과 토양 관통 시험을 통해 토양 내 약제의 방의 효력 임계점을 산정하는 지속성 평가를 실시하였고 해당 자료를 기상 자료와 비교하여 재처리 기간을 산정하였다. 지속성 평가 결과, 약 160~170 mm 이상의 지속적인 수분 노출 이후에는 약제 처리 토양에 대한 흰개미의 천공이 확인되었다. 해당 결과를 최근 5년간 기상 자료와 비교한 결과, 본 실험에서 사용된 농도의 약제는 우리나라 장마철과 여름철 집중호우 기간이 지난 9월 이후 처리할 경우 약 1년 정도 방의 효력이 유지될 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구는 향후 국내 흰개미 방제를 위한 토양처리용 약제의 선정 매뉴얼 작성과 재처리 기간 산정을 위한 기초자료를 제공 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
