TERMITE CONTROL PRE-CONSTRUCTION

Pre-construction termite control involves treating the soil with termiticides before foundation work. This creates a chemical barrier, preventing termites from entering the building. Ensure thorough coverage and follow-up inspections for ongoing protection. Professional pest control services ensure effective application, safeguarding your property from future termite infestations.

Termite Control Pre-Construction

Pre-construction termite control involves treating the soil with termiticides before building foundations are laid. This process creates a chemical barrier that prevents termites from entering the structure. Proper application ensures long-term protection, safeguarding the future building from potential termite damage. Engaging professional pest control services guarantees effective treatment and compliance with building regulations.

Treatment for without basement Buildings

The treatment will commence after the foundation and the plinth wall construction is completed.

1.Treatment to top surface of plinth filling:

After the soil filling is completed in the plinth area and before the dry rubble packing or after the dry rubble packing entire surface of the filled soil and the top surface of plinth wall/beam shall be treated with the chemical emulsion at 5 liter per sq.mtr

2. Treatment at junction of wall and floor:

Rodding shall be carried out along the junction of wall and soil filling at 1 mtr. Intervals down up to 30 cm. emulsion shall be sprayed along the wall junction at 1 liter pre linear meter so that it mixes thoroughly with the broken-up soil. The disturbed earth is then tamped back in place.

3: Treatment of soil along external perimeter:

The soil around the external perimeter of the building up to a depth of 30 cm shall be treated at 2.25 litres per linear meter of the plinth wall

4: Treatment of soil surrounding pipes, wastes and conduits:

When pipes, wastes and conduits enter the soil inside the area of the foundation, the soil surrounding the point of entry must be loosened around each such pipe, waste or conduit for a distance of 15 cm and upto a depth of 7.5cm and loosened soil shall be treated with chemical emulsion.

Treatment for with basement building

The treatment starts when the excavation is complete and before lying soiling and PCC.

1.Treatment to soil below raft::

Before laying the rubble soling and PCC the compacted and leveled soil shall be treated at 5 liter per sq.mtr.

2. Treatment at junction of wall and floor:

The soil coming in contact with the retaining wall shall be treated at 5 liter per sq. mtr. the treatment shall follow the backfilling is done in stages of 30 cms but not exceed a depth of 1 meter.

3. Treatment to soil along the external perimeter of the building:

The soil around the external perimeter of the building up to a depth of 30 cm shall be treated at 2.25 litres per linear meter of the plinth wall

4: . Treatment of soil surrounding pipes, wastes and conduits::

When pipes, wastes and conduits enter the soil inside the area of the foundation, the soil surrounding the point of entry must be loosened around each such pipe, waste or conduit for a distance of 15 cm and upto a depth of 7.5 cm and loosened soil shall be treated with chemical emulsion.

Essential requirement:

  • Once formed treated soil barriers must not be disturbed. In case treated soil is disturbed, immediately step shall be taken to restore the continuity and completeness of barrier system at an additional cost to the customer.
  • This treatment does not give protection against dry-wood termite and powder post beetles.
  • The structure should be isolated from any existing structure.
