Termite Infestation Treatment Options
Borate Treated Wood
If you are building a new home of office the best way to eliminate any future termite problems would be to treat the wooden structure of your home with borate. This will help prevent the termites because the borate will block the termite’s digestive tract enabling the termites to turn the wood into food.
Ground Stakes
After Top Quality Exterminating has performed a termite inspection and has discovered a termite infestation, we recommend the insertion of ground stakes and baits. This method may be costlier than liquid treatment and can take a number of months to complete treatment, this method does not release deadly poisons in your soil and around your home or business.
Liquid Treatments/Chemical Barriers for a Moderate Invasion
Should a moderate termite infestation be found, the quickest treatment method is a liquid treatment. This method is the treatment of choice for the do-it-yourself exterminator and can be a treatment designed to kill termites or choose a treatment that will provide a barrier around your home or office.
