Anti Termite Treatment
Termites eat wood from the inside, so the damage is usually noticed late. We treat new buildings at the foundation stage and protect existing homes, offices and institutions with drill-and-inject treatment.
Pests covered: Subterranean termites, White ants, Mud-tube colonies
Pre-construction treatment
The soil in foundation pits, trenches, plinth filling and under the floor is treated before each layer is covered. We work in stages along with your construction schedule, so the whole base of the building gets treated – the work you see in the photos and video on this page.
Post-construction treatment
Small holes are drilled where the floor meets the walls, chemical is injected into the soil below and the holes are sealed again. Door frames, cupboards and wooden fittings with active termites are treated separately.
Signs You Need Anti Termite Treatment
- Mud tubes on walls, pillars or along the skirting
- A hollow sound when wooden frames are tapped
- Piles of small wings near windows and lights after rain
- Doors and cupboard shutters that suddenly stop closing properly
- Paint bubbling, or thin lines appearing under wallpaper
- Damaged files, books or cartons in store rooms
Our Treatment Process
Inspection
We check walls, wooden frames, store rooms and the outside of the building to find where termites are coming in.
Treatment plan
You get a clear plan – which areas will be treated, which method, and how many visits it needs.
Treatment
On new sites, soil treatment in stages along with construction. In existing buildings, drill, inject and seal along the walls.
Record & follow-up
We note the treatment date and call you before the next check is due, so you don't have to remember it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the treatment for an under-construction building different?
Yes. On a new site the soil is treated at each stage – foundation, plinth and before flooring – so we coordinate with your site engineer and come in before each layer is covered.
Will drilling damage my tiles?
The holes are small and are sealed after the chemical is injected. Our technician will show you where the holes will be made before starting.
Do we have to leave the house?
Usually not for the whole day. The technician will tell you which rooms to avoid and for how long.
How do I know the treatment has worked?
Existing mud tubes dry up and new ones stop appearing. If you notice fresh activity, call your branch and we will inspect.
