At present all industrial , commercial and residential complex are made of reinforced concrete cement structures. The land being the breeding place subterranean termites. Hence, in order to prevent this, barriers are to be created 500 mm (20 inches) below the ground level, i.e. in the foundation itself. Our treatment for such subterranean termites is as follows:

Mode of Treatment:

1. The vertical surface (Column) of submerged structure will be treated with the anti-termite chemicals.
2. The plinth level when filled with earth will also be treated before laying of the sand bed or sub-grade.
3. The junctions of inner walls and floors are to be treated at the plinth level.
4. The external perimeter in contact with the ground level will also be treated.

POST-CONSTRUCTION TERMITE MANGEMENT

Anti-termite treatment of infested buildings requires a high degree of expertise and structural knowledge. The work involved consists not only of termite eradication but also preventive measure against re-infestation. Post-construction termite treatment is backed by a 5 year service guarantee

Mode of treatment:

1. Injecting termiticide into termite tubes on the outer surface of walls, etc.
2. Drilling holes at the junction of walls and floors at a permissible distance of 1-2 ft. and impregnating these holes with termiticide so as to create a chemical barrier impervious to termite entry.
3. Trenching along the external perimeter of the building and pouring chemical to create a chemical collar all around the building to prevent termites from infiltrating into the building. This treatment carries a service warrantee of one /two/ Five years.
4. The new generation termiticide act as killing fields and systematic insecticide with contact and stomach action.

Advantages:

• Non –repellent insecticides, hence termites fail to detect gaps in the chemical barrier and are directly exposed to the chemical even in improper application situation.
• Insecticide does not kill termites immediately on contact and allows more termites to get exposed to treated soil, thus giving a better control.
• Exposed termites transfer toxicant to nest mates not directly exposed to termicide , causing indirect mortality.
• Odorless /Hassel free & Safe.
