Termite Pest Control in Singapore
Our termite treatments in Singapore can address the problem and resolve it from the grassroot. Owing to their wood-eating habits, many termite species can do great damage to unprotected buildings and other wooden structures. Their habit of remaining concealed often results in their presence being undetected until more serious termite control is needed, leaving a thin layer of a wall that protects them from the environment. Drywood termites thrive in warm climates, and human activities can enable them to invade homes since they can be transported through contaminated goods, containers and ships. Colonies of termites have been seen thriving in warm buildings located in cold regions.
Hiring a termite pest control in Singapore is good for property maintenance whether you are suspecting an infestation or not. Singapore is no stranger to termite infestation, thus, it is highly recommended to consult a termite control expert from time to time to ensure that your property is well-protected.

Our Termite Control Treatments in Singapore
Soil Treatment
Soil Treatment is the most effective and cost-efficient form of subterranean termite control or prevention method. The concept behind it is quite simple as well, to establish a termiticide barrier between building and soil to prevent termites from entering into the building. This termite pest control works with most species of termites and is especially helpful for properties surrounded by soil.
Corrective Treatment
For corrective treatment, the target of this termite control is to achieve the same outcome as soil treatment. The only difference is that holes are drilled through the slab to inject these termiticides using a laterally-dispersing pressure hollow rod. This termite pest control measure ensures that the pillars connecting from the soil are protected from possible termite infestation from the ground or underneath the slab.
Dusting Treatment
“Spot” or partial termite control treatments can be very attractive because of their lower cost as compared to other termite pest control procedures. Whether this is a good idea depends on many factors including future plans for the house, your willingness to take risks and the size of your pocketbook. Should you need any advice, you can talk to our pest control experts about this treatment.
Foaming Treatment
Spot treatments with Termite Foam can be made, as a temporary termite pest control measure, in advance of the date when final (complete) treatment of the structure with a soil applied termiticide or other termite management system is completed. Spot treatments with Termite Foam can also be made to drywood termite infestations, making this termite control measure an ideal one for ships, furniture and other wooden things that can carry around the pests.
Above Ground Baiting Systems
Termite baits consist of paper, cardboard, or other acceptable termite food, combined with a slow-acting substance lethal to termites, are used in this type of termite pest control. The bait for this termite control must be good enough to compete with the presence of competing tree roots, stumps, woodpiles and structural wood. If the bait kills too quickly, sick or dead termites may accumulate in the vicinity of the bait stations, increasing the chance of avoidance by other termites in the area. Delayed-action or slow-acting bait also enhances transmission of the lethal agent to other termites, including those that never fed on the bait.
In Ground Baiting Systems
Rather than providing a perimeter soil treatment around your home’s foundation to cover areas where termites are active (and some areas where they are not), bait stations provide more targeted termite pest control treatment. This can be used as early detection monitoring to test for the presence of termites as well as a spot treatment for intensive termite control in Singapore.
PARQUET TREATMENTS
Parquet treatment is a mini version of corrective termite control treatment. The difference is that we will not drill into your wooden flooring. In this termite pest control procedure, we will inject termiticide via syringe to create the barrier preventing any termites from causing damages. Since the syringe requires lesser intrusion as compared to drilling, it is very effective for already established homes.

Termite Pest Control FAQs
Can you treat termites at home by yourself?
No, you should not. For starters, termites are very difficult to detect, the main colony are mostly underground, what you see are only a small portion which comes aboveground for food. Self-treatment will then be ineffective if one is unable to target the main colony underground. Thus, you should not try doing termite control by yourself. It is wiser to consult a termite pest control specialist for more effective recommendations.
