POST CONSTRUCTION TREATMENT

Termites also known as white ants; lives in colonies consists of Queen, King, Few Soldiers & large number of workers. Queen controls the colony through chemical stimulus, she can lay more than 10,000 eggs in a week. King supports queen in reproduction. Both king & queen live in anti chamber. Soldiers protect the colony & workers collect the food & feed the colony. Muddy channels & colony structure repairing is done by workers. They are blind & 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 material containing cellulose like wood, paper & 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 & we can’t do anything after the damage of structure. So to avoid the undetectable infestation treating the premises against termite is very important.
