Gurgaon : A city that boasts of its 30% green belt might get a rude shock as a latest survey has revealed that Sub- terranean termites are eating into many trees , plants and shrubs, threatening their very existence in some areas of Gurgaon city. Total Number of trees in Gurgaon are constantly decreasing from it’s original number of 14.31 lakhs in year 2001. As such it is the need of the hour that govt. makes sincere efforts for Termite Treatment in Gurgaon.

Gurgaon is known for its lush green cover. Some of the trees here are older than 90 years and have witnessed the transformation of Gurgaon from an agricultural land to concrete jungle and skyscrapers. However, according to a Haryana Agricultura University over 39% of trees in Gurgaon are under attack by sub terranean termites.

The study, conducted by Forest Survey of India , North Zone, says that most of the trees along , Arjun Marg, Akashneem Marg, Amaltaas Marg and jacaranda Marg of DLF area of gurgaon are infested by termites. In fact, the DLF ,Sushant Lok and South City areas of Gurgaon have already lost considerable number of trees to termites attack and many more trees are about to collapse due to termite infestation. To make matters worse, the study warns that a lot of trees trees, are already weakened by Termite infestation and are are posing a threat to lives of commuters and adjoining residential buildings.

The worst affected tree species are Juliflora, Acacia Nilotica (Babul and Keekar), Eucalyptus (safeeda) and Azadirachta indica (Neem). The study says 37% trees in Golf course, Sohna road and extention have been damaged by termites in the absence of any protection from termites. It also says that most of the termite affected trees are on MG road . Many fruit bearing trees and other variety of vegetation are also affected by this tiny creature having voracious appetite for wood and for anything with cellulose. Besides, many varieties of trees are also leaning forward on roadsides, weighed down by termite infestation.

A senior officer from Forest Survey of India , Northen Zone said, ” Sub-terranean Termites have infected a large number of trees in Gurgaon and New Gurgaon area. City was built on agricultural land and that makes trees here prone to all types of termite infestation.

Many trees around Udyog Vihar, Old gurgaon , Sector-9, Sector-10 Sector-11 are also termite infected.He further added that proper and timely action is required to protect and preserve the trees by using appropriate anti-termite chemical.” If the current situation is allowed to persists and no action is taken , these trees will barely survive another 10-15 years. Eco-friendly and non toxic termite control measures should be adopted to protect gurgaon trees from these destructive creatures .These can be achieved by planting termite resistant varities of trees like neem trees or using aloevera. Termite colonies prevelent under the trees can further cross infest houses when the termite infested roots of tree passes under the foundation of a house.

This is because of an unwritten understanding that losses due to termites can be prevented through proper house keeping practises, anti termite control treatments and periodic inspections and hence can not be classified under sudden and unexpected event.

The Sub-terranean termites form hidden routes to have an access to to the wooden structure of a house and as the time passes, can cause extensive damage to the basic building structure which requires costly repairs.

In fact, termites are active in every indian state with Delhi and Gurgaon being the worst affected by Sub-terranean species of termites. It is due to this reason that most Home insurance companies do not cover losses either due to termite damage or termite repairs.

Every year termites attack thousands of homes in Delhi NCR region including Gurgaon . The property owners spend million of Rupees annually on Termite Treatments and repairing the damages that they cause.

Once termites have entered a house, they most often attack cabinets because they can remain undetected there for a longer period of time. They not only cause severe damage to the wooden cupboards but also to the contents lying inside.

There are different routes through which termites can gain entry and attack built in wardrobes. In the kitchen or bedrooms where the wooden cabinets are erected on masonary or RCC slabs termites seek direct entry from wall floor junction to wooden cabinets.

Termites travel through the concrete slab by following the sanitary pipes in shaft areas. The wooden cupboards and wardrobes fixed in bedrooms and living rooms are equally vulnerable to termite attack. Termites just need 1/64^th of an inch to squeeze through a crack or creavice in the foundation and gain entry.

Termites can even have an access from behind the wooden paneling without being noticed. They tend to damage paper, books, photo frames, albums, and other items that are kept near these areas. Wooden fixture in Bathroom in the form of mirror frame and wooden cabinets are also common termite targets. The termites gain entry to the bathroom through the sanitary line that passes through the foundation.

Termites can prove to be highly destructive to wooden fixture and furniture present in a house. Therefore it is recommended that property owners should have their home inspected regularly by a termite treatment service provider. The termite professionals can identify the signs of termite activity and suggest the remedial measures as they understand termite behavior and habits and can locate the source of infestation. Once the source of infestation and extent of damage is guaged, a wood termite treatment expert can decide upon course of action to contain the termite problem.

There are several options available for termite treatment of wooden cupboards and wardrobes. Whatever is the source of termite infestation in wood one thing is for sure that the entire cupboard need to be emptied out and wardrobe be vacated so that a thorough injections treatment may be carried out from behind the cupboard/cabinet.
