ANTI-TERMITE TREATMENT SERVICE
Overview
Termites: Silent Destroyers, Termites are small, wood-eating insects that can cause significant damage to structures. They live in colonies and work together to consume cellulose-based materials, primarily wood.
Types of Termites:
Subterranean Termites : These termites build underground colonies and create mud tubes to access above-ground food sources.
Drywood Termites : They infest dry wood and do not require contact with soil.
Damp wood Termites : Prefer moist wood and are usually found in decaying wood and high-humidity areas.
Diseases : Allergies , Asthma, Respiratory Issues
Signs of Infestation
• Mud Tubes : Narrow, pencil-sized tunnels on walls or foundations made of mud, soil, and saliva, often used by termites for protection.
• Damaged Wood : Hollow-sounding wood or wood with blistered surfaces is a major indicator of termite activity.
• Discarded Wings : Shed wings near windows, doors, or light sources, indicating termites are swarming to establish new colonies.
• Frass (Termite Droppings) : Small, wood-colored pellets near wooden structures, indicating drywood termite activity.
• Buckling Floors or Walls : Warped surfaces caused by moisture buildup from termites tunneling through wood.
Prevention Tips
• Reduce Moisture Levels : Termites thrive in moist environments. Fix leaks in pipes, faucets, and roofs.
• Keep Wood Away from Soil Contact : Avoid direct contact of wooden structures (doors, furniture, etc.) with soil.
• Seal Cracks and Gaps : Inspect your home's foundation for cracks or crevices and seal them.
• Store Firewood Properly : Keep firewood, lumber, and other wood materials away from your home.
• Maintain Proper Ventilation : Ensure crawl spaces and basements are well-ventilated to reduce humidity.
