This study examined the natural resistance of Gmelina arborea wood to termites' attack. Untreated Gmelina wood of ages 10, 15, 20 and 25 years respectively were exposed to termites at the timber graveyard.

... This further validates the findings of Despot et al. (2008) that indicate wood modification with citric acid offered a promising alternative for wood treatment, but further research on optimization of modification parameters is needed to achieve improvement of wood properties. Owoyemi et al. (2011) reported that the wood structure of G. arborea constituted another barrier to the flow of the preservatives. G. arborea wood has a medium-specific gravity between 0.4 -0. ...
