it's true that they have to drill & pump chemical every few years.. [/quote] skng03,i haf d same query as wildrestark » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « furthermore i plan to grow some edible plants n herbs in my garden.how much did d whole thing cost n since u did it almost 2 years ago,effective or not this method?wad about ur annual maintenance-juz poour the chhemical in?btw wad kinda pump needed;normal water pump? [quote=lucerne,Mar 11 2011, 05:09 PM] yes, u can buy chlorpyrifos or cypermathrin from any hardware shops and spray by yourself or contractor. after spray,u can coat the roof truss with with the common wood stain ( kind of paint), for door etc u can either piant wiht wood stain if u want to see the wood grain or normal paint (eg alkyd, polyester etc) to cover the toxic chemicals. (non translucent) roof - make sure that u spray on both end /cut and nail spot coz termite can go in from here. those treated wood is usually in greenish color but sometime sawmills cheat consumers with pigments. common chemicals for wood use in outdoor is CCA (copper chrome arsenic) - green in color some of them cheating by jsut soak with CCA to show it is green color. it shud be pressure reated , force the chemicals to go inside the wood cells. the longer time , the higher the pressure hte better. anyway, they are too many cheating outside. in fact u dun have to spray if it is proper treated. spray is short term. pressure treat is longterm and wood can last more than 100 years. the wood primeter is deeply cover with chemicals, nailing have no affect.

QUOTE(jojozep @ Feb 27 2011, 09:25 PM) Does anyone know how effective and how much it is ? I don't think you need to do the treatment for new house, just waste of money.There are no termites but as a future prevention, will it be good to have it done.. or there is nothing to worry about, as the chances are slim.. every few months just ask the termites solution to do checking, and if there is termites then do the sentricon solution. And make sure the house is not humid and if possible change all the door frame to aluminium or steel one. If you check with any termites solution they 100% advise you to do the drilling treatment with sentricon warranty. Or else how they earn money. |
