• Termite Treatment Method

The Professional Way Control Termites!

The treatment will be carried out using the latest developed equipment by highly trained technicians according to the industries Best Standards in Termite Management.

The objective of applying a termiticide to the soil is to provide an unbroken chemical barrier between the concrete in the structure & the termite colonies in the soil. Thus termiticide will be applied thoroughly and uniformly to block all routes of termite entry. Treatment is required around all pipes, utility conduits
& foundations.


The treatment method will depend on the type of soil, grading, water table and presence of drainage, tile and well location. The design of the structure, location of the colony, severity of the infestation in the area and the termite species and its behavior will also be considered. The overall principal in termite control is to make it impossible for termites to move between their nests in the ground



• Pre Construction Termite Treatment

         • The treatment should be carried out before laying the foundation to the trenches or
             concrete slab to the floor.

         •  The laying of the foundation or concrete slab should be done immediately after the
             treatment

         •  Holes (diameter-18-22mm) will be drilled at 3 feet intervals along the perimeter of
             the building (inside & outside)

         •  Termiticide will be injected to the holes at 5 liters of mixed solution per hole using a
             high pressure termite pump

         •  The entire floor area (soil) will be treated at the rate of 5 liters of mixed solution
             using a high pressure termite pump

         •  Termiticide will be used according to the manufactures specifications on the label.

         •  Treatment will be carried outside the perimeter of the building free of charge

Post Construction Termite Treatment

         • Treatment will be carried out by drilling 18 – 22 mm diameter holes at 2 to 3 feet
             intervals along the perimeter of the building & the depth of hole will be
             approx. 540 mm.

         • Special barrier treatment will be carried along the outside perimeter of the building to
             prevent termites entering the structure. Holes would be drilled at 1-11/2 feet
             intervals.

         • At the pantry area, holes will be drilled at 1.5 - 2 feet intervals

         • A repellent or non repellent termiticide will be injected to the holes using a high
             pressure termite pump according to manufacture specifications.

         • All wooden door frames, window frames, cupboards, racks, pantry & skirting will
             be treated totally free.

This treatment will exterminate the termite infestation and protect against
re-infestation.



• General Information

         • Thickness of the termite treatment zone should at least 100mm thick
         • All the termiticide could be used by only authorized pest control services providers
         • Termiticide would be sprayed at 4-5 liter of mixed solution at per square meter
         • Termiticide will be injected to the drilled holes at 4-5 liters per hole
         • Termite inspection will be carried out at your premises once in six months.
         • Most of the termiticide will bind with soil within 30 minutes after applying the
 
           termiticide





• Customer Co-operation

       1. The entire floor area should be well compacted, cleared & ready for the treatment.

       2. All wooden debris should be removed from the soil before compacting the soil.

       3. The concrete slab should be laid on the soil immediately after the treatment or with in
           24 hours & the drilled holes also should be sealed immediately.

       4. If the concrete is not laid immediately after treatment, we recommend to cover the
           treated area using polythene( gauge not less than 800)

       5. The barrier (floor soil) should not be disturbed after the treatment for any reason.

       6. Proper drainage system should be in place to prevent moisture

       7. Pets & children should be out of the treatment zone during the time of treatment &
           four hours after completion of the treatment.

       8. Toilets are the most important area to treat in order to prevent termite infestation. DO
            NOT MISS
