Pest control tips

– For furniture, objects, decorations and finishing materials, use naturally unchallenged termite woods. 

– In termite bridal flocks, close doors, windows and other openings. Attracted by lighting, these insects enter the environment and cause infestations. After breeding, they lose their wings and seek shelter in wooden objects.

– Pay particular attention to proper storage of wood and cellulose derivatives. Avoid humid places.

– Examine wood parts and structures (baseboards, ceilings, cabinets, shelves, frames, etc.) frequently for signs of infestation.

– Upon completion of work, quickly remove used lumber and reduce the threat of infestation in the property.

– Infested woods should be removed and destroyed (preferably burned in appropriate places). Valuable parts must be subjected to special treatment in purging chambers.

– In libraries and archives, whenever possible, use metal shelves.

– Do preventive treatments on furniture and wood. Repellent substances kill insects in contact with the material.

– Watch for visible signs of attack. The emergence of a brown powder indicates the presence of pest feces in the environments. They form inside the woods a network of tunnels covered with a protective wax.
