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.
if someone that is brave enough to enter that ceiling and spray termicott everywhere,need to wear mask because of toxic smell

what sort of insanity is dis
you are the one that is not okay. Mr know all, have you tried it? If not why condemned the BEST solution? People like you make it difficult to seek solutions to one problems online ........spray anti termites..... what about the one that are deep inside the ground? Besides, before he posted it online he would ve tried all sorts of chemicals without solution. Try to accommodate other opinions(listening ear),no matter how foolishly it may sound provided you want to be a good leader in future.

The first thing to do is to take off the roof for safety purpose.
Secondly i will advice if there is enough funds use steel roof members
Thirdly fumigate before going back in .

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.

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.

I have experienced this too. The plant chases them completely from the whole area and they never come back again.

The plant looks like lemon grass, but I know it is not lemon grass.

op, a dead dog as earlier told should work.
our house is decked, yet this peeps no dey let us rest by always finding a way to dig out the red sand used to sandfill, we even had to pull down a part of the building, excavate the flooring and apply chemical specially for termite(forgotten the name), but e no work for them, we once used engine oil, salt, etc, till someone told us to use dog.
We contracted a dude for our area to buy a 2 puppies and bury it in the compound, na so we no hear about them again after about 17years of tormenting us.

I understand you though. Burying a dog is spiritual sacrifice and has its own consequences which most people won't be aware of.

okay sir.
wouldn't drag words with u.

you obviously don't understand.

op pls don't go the dog route.

interesting hearing of dogs driving away termites..op, you have a termite problem. they attack most species of wood,though some take them more time to eat through than others so don't pay attention to those asking you to re-roof your house. The only time you need to take off the roofing is if they have damaged the trusses. You can apply the treatment to the trusses without taking your roof off.
You could consider rebuilding the ceiling of any room that has been compromised, for your safety, and use treated wood this time!
Goodluck
