i don’t understand, is it Juju or termites are generally scared of a dead buried dog?

The question you should be asking sef is how do the termites know that a dead dog has been buried in the compound? Or why not an alive dog? Why does it has to be a dead dog?

Now that i typed it out, I'm guessing the smell of the dead dog could drive the queen away and that will in turn drive her workers away, as they must follow their queen

I had wanted to type dis b4 seeing ur reply and one other guy above, at least I know two people that had done same and it really worked. Some people will just come online and be spewing gibberish, they won't want to learn at all

It’s not that we don’t necessarily want to learn but that there are modern chemical and electronic solution to the issue.

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.

He might have built on termite infested soil, in that case it won't be easy to find a colony to destroy.
My take, in addition to solutions given, get batteries, big torch batteries, used ones saves money, dig holes, pierce the batteries and bury them at strategic places around the compound, where u feel they have their trails to the ground most and you wet the spots.
It could be like 5 or 7 spots or more with no minimum number of batteries at the dug spot, it attacks from the source, intensify efforts at rate been threatened, in the long run , your soil will be free from them, this does not stop u from having emergency treatments.

Feed me back!

Thank me later!

Please try not to touch let alone use used engine oil on anything. It’s highly cancernogenic.

Same as in burying used batteries. Used batteries are to be specially recycled.

No wonder we have one of the shortest lifespan in the world.

I read thru all posts here and I must say am enthralled. I also have a case of termites in my house, posters own is child's play compared to mine. I have tried all sorts of chemicals, salts, concoctions etc. All to no avail. Honestly, am beginning to buy the idea of the dog thing. Termites wahala can cause sleepless nights.
My questions, can I get parts of dog meat or must it be the whole body? Can it be buried outside the compound, not sure I can stand it inside the compound. Is there any spiritual side effects, bf I use sledge hammer kill mosquito for body?
Somebody should fill me in,tnx.

Have you consulted with a professional termite control outfit?
Re: Help Me Before Termites Collapse My Building by ikbnice(m): 7:50am On Nov 27, 2018
This was the impact of the termites on a local church built with wood before the plant was planted. The destruction stopped right after the plant was planted.

Seun, I implore you, employ me as one of your MODs. With you, I'll return Nairaland to its original state. The ones you have are getting weak and non-functional. Imagine one of your MODS banned me because I chastised her for being controversial. Please tell her to unban me. About the MOD stuff, think it through, okay? I swear I'll function hands down more than them. Uhn? Seun.

Love. Uyai. kiss cool

Nairaland mods take things personally.. its bad.. besides i feel accounts that have been banned for years should be unbanned..for instance, why ban someone till 2032?? Its an overkill, its ridiculous and its not fair.. do something

I was about to say this as well. We also did dis at my dad's compound.
Also, go to saw mill and ask for a chemical called Soligum, I may not get the spelling well but it is pronounced that way. The carpenters painted all the plank used in make our roof with this dirty oil look alike chemical. You will not see termites any where again.

Termites are a nuisance as can be seen by this damage done. If there are several colonies it will take a while to eradicate but these are measures you can take:
First identify the termite specie... subterranean termite Spp or Drywood Termite. If it's the former you will see mudtubes on walls,wood from the soil, if the Drywood they basically stay and feed in the wood.
To "control" the Subterranean termite you may have to dig a trench with depth of 1ft around your building and pour termiticide, pls note that if termites are already in building and from foundation you may need an expert to help with termiticide injection. You can support this treatment with termite bait installed around your building.
For Drywood Termite since the infestation is quite extensive,replace all damaged wood with treated wood and treat all other wood with wood preservatives.
You can reach me on 07044405763 for more information.

Re: Help Me Before Termites Collapse My Building by jerrybabasam: 8:49am On Nov 27, 2018
You can get termite wipe off from your building by applying SOLIGNUM mix with KEROSENE / BLACK OIL . Just go to the building materials market and buy the SOLIGNUM and spray it to the entire Rafters .After spraying stay away from the building for 2 to 3 days for safety. Good luck!

We have this same problem in our house and we were also told to bury a dog in the compound and that will be the end of the termites.. How true is this? Do u mean we bury a live dog? Sounds like a ritual to me but I have heard from reliable sources that it is 100% effective.
