Rationale
 PURPOSE OF THE
STUDY

The study aims to provide

a non toxic and cost
efficient natural wood
preservative from the peel
of Lakatan and Saba.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
 1. What is the termicidal

balbisiana) peel is
preservative. Specifically, it seeks more effective
to answer the following questions: within a specific
amount of water:
a. 1 Liter?
b.2 Liters?

Saba peels as a natural
wood preservative based
on their chemical
composition

SCOPE
Termicidal repellency
activity of termites from
the extract of Lakatan and
Saba peels
LIMITATION
The time exposure of
the termites that can be
used to determine if
Lakatan and Saba peels
are potential as an
alternative natural wood
