New paint enhances and gives fresh look to the interior of you home . It also increase the life of walls, furniture and fixture as painting and polishing protects against damage done by dampness, mold and fungi. But the problem starts when you get the interior of your house painted before any termite inspection or proper Pest Control For Termites . Most local painters in delhi gurgaon and noida are not professional enough and don’t tell home owners about the importance of termite inspection and thorough treatment . Their interest remains in hurridly splashing the paint all over and getting paid for their job. If at all any termite infestation is detected, they just purchase one or two litres of termiticide from any nearby hardware shop apply it on just the infested area and then cover it with 2-3 layers of paint.

But what this mistake costs to a home owner ?. It cost a home owner thousands of rupees by removing the termite damaged or rotten wood and again paying for the same job all over again. It also means hiring painter again to get the job done twice and pay hefty amount in the form of wages. This way a lot of money and time is wasted. When our termite inspection expert go on call to our customers in Delhi, gurgaon and noida, we find that 6 out of 10 homeowners have redone their house without conducting any termite inspection or Pest Control treatment for Termites done and even before the painter have finished the whole job, the termite infestation is detected.

Therefore Renovation or remodelling of the property is the best time to get the Pest Control For Termites be done . Because it’s easier to dig holes and inject termiticide in the walls and the surface and That’s what we are going to discuss in this post.

Under the ideal conditions, the termite control measures should be taken first and then the remodelling or renovation job should be carried out. To be more precise it is recommended that if the walls are to be scrubbed or any dismantling of old wooden structure is to be done, then this should be done first and the treatment be carried out . Once the Pest Control for Termite is done then you can put new wood and start painting or polishing of walls and wood. This is because when the walls and other surfaces which are to be painted/polished are exposed, a better absorption of termiticide solution takes place. Morover there is no fear least marks of termite treatent chemical will be left on the wood and wall surface. Once the walls, wood and ceiling of the rooms is injected and treated by termiticide and if some stains or treatment marks are visible on the surface those would be well taken care of by the painter and these marks or stains won’t appear on the final finished layer of the paint or polish coating.

In Delhi and Ncr area like Gurgaon and Noida it is a common practice to sand the walls first and then apply putty followed by primer before applying the paint on the wall.

The best stage for Pest Control treatment for termites is when when all the walls are thoroughy sanded . This will give better absorption of anti termite chemical by the walls and would enhance the efficiency of termite control treatment. Once the walls are sanded and termite chemical applied , then apply the putty followed by primer on the walls and finally paint coating .

Can termites travel from a treated house to non treated house or Do termites move from one house to another in a neighbour hood. Can Termite Control be done effectively This remains the concern when home owners in Delhi, Gurgaon and Noida come across a situation when they discover their next door neighbour had a termite issue. Their first reaction is to immediately take decision to get their house also anti termite treatment done.

There are over 230 different species of Sub terrainean termites in India that cause problems to properties: i.e

Coptotermes heimi
Coptotermes gestroi
Heterotermes indicola
Schedorhinotermes spp.
Ondototermes spp.
Psammotermes rajathanicus
Macrotermes gilvus
Microcerotermes spp.
Nasutitermes sp.

The dimensions of a Termite colony can be vary from place to place. Larger colonies can have millions of members, infesting areas up to half an acre. Whereas newly developed and smaller colonies may contain less than 15,000 individuals, with an infestation “footprint” no bigger than a living room. In some cases fewer but larger colonies may be present, whereas in there may be smaller and more numerous colonies scattered over a large area. In residential areas, the colony or colonies responsible for damage may actually be located under the neighbour’s house, rather than beneath the house that is being infested.

Nowadays, In Delhi , Noida and Gurgaon houses are being built closer and closer adjoining each other, particularly in new-construction areas. If you discover that your neighbours had a termite problem , it is natural for you to be concerned , but it should not be a reason to panic.

Here are some preventive measures that you should consider if you hear that your neighbours has a termite issue. No one likes ones house to be visited by these destructive pests. If you are better informed about the behaviour of termites and their tendencies, you will be in a position to understand the chances of your house getting termite infested and can easily reduce the risk.

Termites are soil nesting pests and when they move through the soil in search of food they don’t follow any definite directional pattern, Nor do they can tell difference between a new construction and an old one.That is the reason that some times very new constructions discover termite envasion and sometime houses in delhi and gurgaon ,which are as old as 40 years had never intercepted termites .Therefore your house not necessarily have to be treated for termites just because the house next door has been infested by those sub-terranean termites.

However, It is strongly recommended that if this termite situation happens in your neighborhood, you should get your home thoroughly inspected. as all the houses in your neighborhood are at risk of picking termite infestation . Moreover termites travel upto 70 metres in all directions in search of cellulose base food. If the age of the house is the same, type of construction and material used is the same and moisture level of the soil is the same, then it becomes utmost essential that you get your house inspected against termites invasion.

Your house is not a fortress , and your for walls can not protect it from the most envasive pest on earth. Do it right away, even if you don’t see any signs of termite infestation. It is like buying peace and you have no worries. In the meantime, take measures and ensure that you don’t give termites an open invitation to the inside of your house. When a new house is constructed there is always some extra wood (that could not be used in making wooden doors, windows and cupboards) which remain unused. In northen part of India homeowners have a tendency to store that extra and left over wood in the overhead lofts. This stored wood which remains unattended attract termites and prove to be a hazard. Therefore If you have any form of timber stored inside or around your house , move it away from the building. Fix any leaky taps or dampness source that may attract termites. Property owners in India can help reduce the risk of termites invasion through proper house upkeep, exterior home maintenance and dampness control.

Another pathway of termites traveling from one place to another is through flying. During first rains in summer season the reproductives ( a class of sub terranean termites) gather wings and emerge from it’s underneath full grown colony and fly. They search for new mate partners so as to form new colonies . This flight is scientifically known as “nupital flight”. After they have successfully mated, the termites shed their wings and start the process of creating a new colony.

If there is a new construction going on in your vicinity your chances of getting a termite infestation goes up because each acre of land may have upto 8-10 active termite colonies. If any such termite colony in the soil is disturbed, it’s chances of spreading increases. That is the reason why homeowners in Delhi Gurgaon and Noida complain that they have observed termite infestation in their house only when a new construction in their neighbourhood started. Whereas prior to that they never experienced termite menace for years together.

There are about Twenty four known species of termites in North India and Formosan termites, one such species of subterranean termite found in northen region of India, including Delhi , Noida and Gurgaon . Formosan Termites can easily cross infest and transport from one place to another if they are carried along the wood they are living in. Any wood , brought from an old house and infested by Formosan termites, may contain a queen termite which is capable enough to continue a new colony elsewhere.

Many home owners in Delhi and Gurgaon buy an insurance cover and that is the best thing one can do to protect one’s house against unforeseen circumstances. But the second important thing one must know is what all an insurance plan may or may not cover.

It is an established fact that termites cause billion Rupees of damage every year to property owners in India.

Home insurance policy only covers damage due to sudden or un expected events and not the damages occurred to your property due to termite attacks. 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.

Because damages due to termites attack are rarely covered under home insurance schemes , therefore it is highly advisable that home owners in Delhi and Gurgaon to have their property inspected and get their house regularly treated against termite infestations. Moreover at the time of initial purchase one should thoroughly get the property inspected by a certified Termite inspector so as to give you peace of mind that at the time of purchase at least your house is free of termite infestation.
