About Termites

Termites are known as “silent destroyers” because of their ability to chew through wood, flooring and even wallpaper undetected. There are about 2,000 known termite species in the world. Each year, termites cause more than $5 billion in property damage.

There are more than 350 species of termites in India. Some of the common species include

  • Odontotermes spp.
  • Microcerotermes spp.
  • Coptotermes spp.
  • Heterotermes spp.
  • Reticulitermes spp.
  • Zootermopsis spp.
  • Cryptotermes spp.
  • Incisitermes spp.
  • Marginitermes spp.

Subterranean termites are the most destructive termites in India. They build their nests underground and can also construct mounds that go above ground level. Mature colonies may consist of more than 2 million individuals and the queens are capable of laying 2000 eggs per day. Termite colonies may exist for as long as 50 years.

Termites are social insects, working and living together in groups called colony. Each colony contains several types termite individuals (castes) which differ in body shape and behavior and each caste performs different tasks. These castes are identified as:

  • Workers
  • Soldiers – distinguished by their heavily armored and pigmented heads
  • Reproductive s (i.e. Queen and King)

The Worker Caste dominate the colony population, they are wingless, sterile and blind. Their primary role is to build the nest, tend the eggs and young, and gather the food. They also feed other castes incapable of feeding themselves.

The Soldier Caste is also wingless, sterile and blind. Their primary function is protection of the colony from natural enemies and their mandibles are so modified that they cannot feed themselves.

Termites are hidden invaders, they can cause serious structural damage to buildings and significant damage to crops. Termites feed on anything consisting of cellulose such as wood, paper, clothes. In search of food they also damage non-cellulosic material such as rubber, plastic, nylon, etc. Their ability to conceal themselves provides the necessary time to do considerable damage before they are discovered.

The “DRILL-FILL-SEAL” approach is used in post construction anti termite treatment to produce a barrier against termites in existing buildings. This procedure is simple, non-messy, and absolutely risk-free.

This method of anti termite treatment creates an unnoticeable chemical barrier surrounding the building, ensuring constant protection. Infested woodwork is treated with an oil-based pesticide to kill termites and protect it from future infestations.

POST CONSTRUCTION ANTI TERMITE METHOD

When used to kill termites gradually by targeting their nervous system, non-repellent / slow action chemical termiticides are particularly efficient. Termites will bring active termiticide to their colonies when they reach soil that has been treated with chemicals.
Other colonies will be impacted in the days ahead as a result of coming into touch with individuals who have been poisoned by the chemical. As a result, the colony as a whole will be discharged.

Following steps are taken while Post construction termite treatment:

Thorough inspection: The first step is a thorough investigation of termite-infested structures. This is necessary for determining the point and course of termite attack, as well as the usage of termite control measures in the structure.
Drilling on the floor: The second stage is to use a drill to bore a hole in the floor’s surface and inject anti-termite chemicals at a particular equal distance location.
Inject a chemical using an injector: Anti termite chemicals are injected into holes in order to protect structure from termites.
Install the bait inside and out (if required): If the inspection results indicate that termite bait should be put in the structure, baiting will be carried out. The placement of bait both outside and inside the colony has the potential to harm the colony as a whole.

Dril-Fill-Seal Method for Termite Control
Dril-Fill-Seal is a method of drilling holes and injecting chemicals (Termiticide solution) at the junction of walls and floors, then sealing them, is used to avoid underground termite infestation.
Holes will be drilled on the ground and on the upper levels along the inner junction. To establish a termite barrier, termiticide will be injected under pressure.

Pre-construction termite treatment is preventative in nature, with the goal of creating a continuous chemical barrier / zone under and surrounding the building (under construction) to prevent subterranean termites from entering the treated structure.

This treatment is scheduled at various stages throughout the project’s development and is the best deal to prevent termites from entering the structure for a long life. When the treatment is applied to the soil, it creates a treated zone within which termites are unable to penetrate or die.

Our Pre-construction and Post-construction Anti Termite Treatment

We use World Class Non-repellent insecticide which does not allow the termites to detect the gaps in the barrier formed due to improper application.
The chemical we use does not kill termites immediately on contact and allows more termites to be exposed to treated soil thus giving a better control exposed termites transfer toxicant to nest mates not directly exposed to soil, causing indirect mortality

NOTE: With non-repellent insecticides the termites don’t detect the presence of the insecticide. If you use a traditional cheapest repellent termiticide, the termites will detect them and find another entry point, totally wastage of time and money.
