Here’s Why You Have a Difficult Time Getting Rid of Termites in Your Home

The reason termites are so hard to get rid of is that most of the colony stays out of sight. Subterranean termites live in colonies underground and move through mud tubes, while drywood termites live within the wooden structure itself.

They also stay hidden as they feed. Termites will feed right up to the paint and stop, so solid wood can sound hollow before any damage shows on the surface.

This is why the treatment method you choose is extremely important. It has to reach the entire colony, not only the termites you can see.

The Entire Colony Is Eliminated

Termite baiting system

A slow-acting bait that termites carry back and share as they groom and feed one another, intended to eliminate the entire colony.

Chemical barrier

A termiticide solution applied to the soil to form a barrier, so white ants cannot enter the structure from their nest.

Our Termite Control Treatment Solutions

Termite Inspection

The first stage is finding the root cause and the source of the white ants in your premise.

Termite Proofing

The first step is to install a chemical barrier under the structure of the building to prevent the white ants from entering it (they can enter through their nest in the soil and into the structure).

Termite Baiting System

It’s a technique that uses a system designed to attract subterranean termites and eventually exterminate their colonies. The bait will generally be a slowly-acting toxicant that doesn’t kill the white ants immediately. Termites are typically killed by this method since most chemicals used in it cause them to fail in reaching maturity.

Termites frequently groom and feed one another, therefore bait is frequently used throughout the colony. Termite baiting is intended to eliminate the entire colony of termites.

Termite Pre-Construction Soil Treatment

The treatment of the soil begins; where the termiticide solution is thoroughly drenched throughout the soil. Power spraying with a pump pressure; directed at the compacted soil surface area.

The termiticide solution will be used to destroy their colony. All of these are completed without the white ants realizing, since it lacks a distinctive odor that they can detect.

A polythene sheet is used to seal the treated areas after they have been exposed to power spraying in order to avoid rainwater seepage and sun damage. Concrete will then be poured on top of the sheet.

Termite Corrective Control

To kill subterranean insects that have already reached a structure, a termiticide solution is applied to the soil (which surrounds the foundation) to form a chemical barrier. Drilling slab floors along foundation walls and holes in areas linked to the foundation are all included in this step. Finally, the holes will be resealed.

Types of Termites In Singapore

Subterranean Termites

Subterranean termites dwell in colonies underground and have specialized castes to execute particular colony functions. Workers, Soldiers, and Swarmers (with wings) are the three castes in their society.

Subterranean termites in Singapore prefer food containing wood cellulose or fiber, such as paper, cardboard, and plant items.

Mud tubes, or building tunnels, are passageways-for-termites that termite colonies create and use to move through solid ground. These termites can also enter structures via wood placed on dirt and timber foundations with tunneling abilities.

Drywood Termites

Drywood termites are one of the most destructive termite pests because of their reduced moisture need, and their existence within the wooden structure. They attack living trees’ dead wood as well as timber in service. Drywood termites, unlike subterranean termites, are not easily controlled because termite baiting is not an effective termite treatment.

Dampwood Termites

The most common habitat of Dampwood Termites are areas in close proximity to water or damp soil and damp wood – due to the cellulose (their food) contained in wood.

This is a subterranean termite that feeds on moist wood, such as rotted timber, decaying timber, and damp wood. Naturally, this kind of species is prevalent in landscaping.

What You Can Do To Prevent Termite Infestation

Water leaks

Repair leaking water sources

Dead and damp wood

Remove dead wood, debris, and damp wood present in your home

Furnishing

Try to use more metal furnishing if possible instead of wood (especially if you know that furniture will be left unattended for a long time)

Entry points

Seal your entry points (especially if you have a backyard)

Ventilation

Ensure that your wooden furniture has good ventilation – to reduce moisture present – that gives them an ideal environment for breeding

FAQ

Termites In Singapore: Answers Before You Ask

What are termites?

Termites, often called white ants, are wood-eating insects and a common problem in Singapore. They feed on the cellulose found in wood, paper and cardboard, so they can damage your property and affect the value of your home or business.

Termite type	What to know
Drywood termites	Live within the wooden structure and need little moisture. They attack dead wood on living trees as well as timber in service.
Subterranean termites	Live in colonies underground and move through mud tubes. They prefer food containing wood cellulose or fiber, such as paper, cardboard and plant items.
Dampwood termites	Found in close proximity to water or damp soil. They feed on moist, rotted or decaying timber and are prevalent in landscaping.

If you spot any of them at your premises, get a professional termite inspection done.

What are the signs of a termite infestation?

Look out for these signs of termite infestation at your premises.

Sign	What to look for
Damaged wood	Wood or even furniture damage
Mud tubes	Especially at the corner of ceilings
Pellets	Several brown pellets of excrement
Discarded wings	Left behind by flying termites
Hollow sound	Solid wood furniture now starting to sound hollow
Wall damage	Wall damage and bubbling paint, as termites will feed right up to the paint and stop

How do termites get into a building?

It depends on the type of termite.

Termite type	How they get in
Subterranean termites	From their nest in the soil and into the structure, through mud tubes, wood placed on dirt and timber foundations
Dampwood termites	Through damp, rotted or decaying wood, usually in close proximity to water or damp soil
Drywood termites	They live within the wooden structure itself, including timber in service

How do I prevent a termite infestation?

Preventing termite infestations comes down to five precautions.

Precaution	What to do
Water leaks	Repair leaking water sources.
Dead and damp wood	Remove dead wood, debris, and damp wood present in your home.
Furnishing	Try to use more metal furnishing instead of wood if possible, especially for furniture that will be left unattended for a long time.

How does Ironman Pest Control treat termites?

Our termite control treatment covers five solutions. After the inspection, you get a fair quotation of the suitable treatment method for your pest issue.

Solution	What it does
Termite inspection	Finds the root cause and the source of the white ants in your premises.
Termite proofing	Installs a chemical barrier under the structure of the building to prevent white ants from entering it.
Termite baiting system	Attracts subterranean termites with a slow-acting bait that is carried throughout the colony to eliminate it.
Pre-construction soil treatment	Drenches the soil with a termiticide solution, then seals the treated areas before concrete is poured.
Termite corrective control	Applies a termiticide solution to the soil surrounding the foundation to form a chemical barrier against termites that have already reached a structure.

Does termite baiting work for all types of termites?

No. A termite baiting system is designed to attract subterranean termites and eventually exterminate their colonies. Termites frequently groom and feed one another, so the bait is carried throughout the colony.

Drywood termites are not easily controlled this way, because termite baiting is not an effective treatment for them.

How much does a termite inspection cost?

The inspection is complimentary. There are no obligations and no costs involved before proceeding to fix any pest issues.

After the inspection, you get a fair quotation of the suitable treatment method for your pest issue.
