Put an End to It
Termites can wreak havoc on your home’s structure and integrity, rendering repairs impossible. Termites are a serious pest that has to be dealt with as soon as possible, so if you find any or suspect you have them, call a pest control service right once. A licensed pest control service may inspect your home, determine the best course of action, and carry it out. Traditional termite extermination includes the following:
Soil treatment. Since subterranean termites are ground dwellers, the soil around a building must be treated to prevent an infestation. The soil around the foundation is treated with a termiticide after a trench has been dug around it. After that, the trench is refilled. The termites are killed as they return to the soil to nest, and the treatment also deters new infestations.
Wood treatment. Numerous wood treatments are available for use by pest control experts and can be used both to eliminate current termite colonies and to discourage their re-emergence in the future. Borate-treated wood is just one of several types of wood treatments, which include surface sprays, injected sprays and foams, and more. Termite infestations can be avoided and current termites exterminated with the help of borate wood treatments applied by pest control professionals. There are a variety of methods for treating wood, from applying a protective coating before construction to injecting and foaming the wood into the finished structure.
Bait systems. An efficient method of eliminating termite infestations is through the use of bait termite treatment systems. If you have a professional pest control service install bait stations around your home and check on them routinely, you won’t have to worry about pests returning or spreading to other areas of your property. This is an extremely efficient strategy for eliminating a termite infestation.
These are a few efficient methods for protecting your home from termites and preventing future structural damage.
