Termite Control

Termite control: how to use it effectively

Termite treatments prevent and kill subterranean termites that come up to eat framing, door frames and cabinets. Damp soil and wood after a flood are exactly what termites like, so check around the house and treat before they get into the structure.

Types and how to use them

• Concentrates (SC, EC): dilute at the rate on the label to drench the soil around the house, spray floor cracks or treat soil before a slab is poured.
• Ready-to-use liquids: brush or spray onto timber, door frames and roof framing to guard against termites and borers.
• Termite sprays: spray straight onto visible termite trails; easy for small jobs at home.
• Sizes from 250 ml for household use to 5-15 L for contractors and projects.

Why treat for termites after a flood

Treating early costs far less than replacing door frames, doors and cabinets that termites have eaten. Replace rotten timber with materials termites won't eat, such as synthetic wood door frames. Wear gloves and a mask and read the label before use.
