Termites also known as
white ants lives in colonies consists of King, Queen, Few Soldiers and large
number of workers. Queen controls the colony through chemical stimulus, she can
lay more than 50,000 eggs in a month. Both king and queen live in anti-chamber.
Soldiers protect the colony and workers collect the food and feed the colony.
Muddy channels and colony structure repairing is done by workers. They don’t
have eyes and they work for 24 hours. The infestations caused by the termites
are huge like storm, cyclone, fire, flood etc. They can damage any structure in
search of food in which material containing cellulose like wood, paper and
cloths.
If mud tubes are seen in
building, wooden structure there will be the problem of termite in that
structure. Sometimes infestation will be done to internal structure but we
can’t detect it, muddy channels are also not seen. The structure gets totally
infested and we can’t do anything after the damage of structure. So to avoid the
undetectable infestation treating the premises against termite is very
important
There
are 2 Types of Anti-Termite Treatment:
Ø Pre-construction
anti-termite treatment is considered as most effective way to prevent termite
invasion in buildings or homes. In this soil under the foundation is treated
with chemicals. A chemical barrier is formed between ground and brickwork of
the foundation to avoid termites access to the building.
Ø Post
construction anti-termite treatment is conducted after the completion of the
construction of the building. This normally consists of re-using termiticides
to the soil around the foundation. Also treat the floors of the rooms by making
holes under floors and fill them with chemicals for Termite Control.
