There is a chemical you spray on it that you wouldn't stay in the house for days. Everything will die including lizards and human beings(I forgot the name of the chemical). But to avoid stuff like this next time always use already treated wood.

Dog head you mean. He will have to bury it In their base still.

But you forget to mention the side effect? The first son of the house's corpse will be brought to that house.

as odd as it may sound, there is a particular plant someone recommended we plant where I stayed before. Being a chronic critics, I laughed at the idea until the landlord went ahead and get it planted. And that brought an end to their misdemeanor. I will try and get the name of the plant.


Please do, I'll appreciate that

Good morning everyone

I live beside a river which only flows during raining season.

For like Four months now, I have been noticing the presence of termite in my compound and also having problems with termite feeding on the planks of my 3 year old building and I've been fumigating it every time since then. I kept on noticing the that they still feed on the planks. I've not been able to get their base in my compound despite serious searching. The worst happened yesterday when the whole ceiling of one of the rooms of the building came down. Thanks to God no one was there.

Please do anyone know what else I can do to get rid of termites completely from my compound.

You should have treated the wood before using it for roofing

must you use wood? welders can construct steel trusses for your roofing.

Re: Help Me Before Termites Collapse My Building by voyy: 10:31pm On Nov 26, 2018
firstly, dat wood u used in constructing the roof is not a hard wood.
secondly, reconstruct the roof but make sure u mix gamaline 20 and condenmed(used) engine oil to spray or paint the wood b4 using.
thirdly, to permanently pursue the termites, get some pieces of dog meat and bury it in some places in the compound, you will never see the termites in ur compound again.

This same measure I applied before I regained my roofing wood and all termites disappeared. Its a permanent measure to combat termites. Best of luck.

Suggestions:
- You may need to reconstruct the roof using thoroughly treated wood. As long as their food is available, they will continue to come to eat it.
- You may need to find their nest and destroy it. It may be that you've been killing just the workers, and the queen just keeps producing more.

If the wood Are still good you can actually treat them up there

the carpenter just used you,that wood is not hard wood but soft wood. the only way is to bring down the roof and re roof it,no short cut. get danta wood,land ekimi,mangrove wood or abura wood ugbarugba wood,paint wood,i don't know what they are called in your area. good luck
