New Study Uncovers Termite Resistance vs Microbes, Jacksonville, FL Pest Control to Benefit

"Researchers were able to identify hundreds of strains of bacteria from termite colonies, in which 70 percent of them showed resistance against certain microbes. Among the most prevalent in the nests tested was the strain called Streptomyces. By sheer coincidence, Streptomyces, according to experts, provides most of the world's known antibiotics in modern medicine. To this day, scientists are still uncovering new ways to synthesize the bacteria and create new, more effective antibiotics. Researchers believe they have the upper hand now. The data from the study can be used to devise novel ways to deal with the resistant termite colonies. It won't be long before a new wave of microbial solutions reach effective pest control in Jacksonville, FL and other areas."
