Abstract: Many methods are available to analyze rank ordered data. We used a spectral density analysis to identify most preferred options of Formosan Subterranean Termites (FST) control as ranked by Louisiana homeowners. Respondents are asked to rank four termite control methods form the most preferred option to the least preferred option. Spectral analysis of both complete and partial ranked data indicates that the most preferred termite control choice is a relatively cheap ($0.13 per square foot) option of a Liquid treatment.
