How long does an anti-termite treatment last?
The effectiveness and duration of anti-termite treatment can vary depending on the method used, the severity of the infestation, environmental factors, and maintenance practices. Generally, treatments can provide protection for several years, but periodic inspections and re-treatment may be necessary to ensure long-term efficacy.
When should I consider anti-termite treatment?
Anti-termite treatment is typically recommended as a preventive measure during the construction or pre-construction stage of a building. However, it can also be carried out on existing structures if there is evidence of termite activity or as a precautionary measure.
Why is anti-termite treatment necessary?
Anti-termite treatment is necessary because termites can cause significant damage to structures, including wooden foundations, furniture, and other cellulose-based materials. This treatment helps prevent termite infestations and minimizes the risk of structural damage.
