Termite control is a crucial aspect of property maintenance, preventing significant structural damage and preserving the integrity of buildings. The most effective termite control treatment depends on several factors, including the species of termite, the extent of infestation, and the type of structure being treated.
Historically, chemical treatments have been widely used for termite control. These treatments involve applying liquid termiticides to the soil around the foundation of a building, creating a barrier that prevents termites from entering. However, chemical treatments can have environmental drawbacks and may not be suitable for all situations.
