Hi Guys.

Do you guys have any good termite solution provider that provides value for money services? Need the service at Penang area, maybe possible to use bait system. What are the estimated cost of bait system for a 1600 sqrt ft terrance house?

Cant quite remember the amount they charge but it was bait system. Place 3 bait station at 3 different places and monitor for at least 3 months.

Just ask them to go over and survey. They will provide quotation for free as well.

not true. fipronil is spray, goes back to nest, die and other termites will eat the them, and also dies.

Rentokil is good and expensive.

Fipronil is cheap and cheerful.

please don't bite it. you might swallow, and i'm sure its toxic. you might die.

if you buy fipronil (try the large hardware shop or large flower / kebun shop), do read the instructions carefully. it is toxic (of course, since its designed to kill termites) and wear rubber gloves etc. i have used it. works well. the fipronil i bought is liquid form.

can also hire rentokil etc....they'll do the same and charge you many many time more .....got money ok lah.

I just did drilling for whole house. the termite damage quite bad. All of the skirting gone, some of the switches, some part of the solid wood stairs. The cost was RM3.3k. Hopefully it is effective.
