As you know termites are one of the biggest threats for a home. If you are experiencing an infestation then you should immediately get in touch with professional anti-termite treatment service providers. Before calling a professional there is a big question which generally arise in our mind “How much an anti-termite treatment will cost”? Anti-termite Treatment Price in Kerala depends upon the following factors:-

• Severeness of infestation
• Size of house
• Experience of service provider
• Tools & product used
• Building materials used like – Laterite & wood

1. Types of Anti-termite Treatments

There are basically two types of anti-termite treatments

a. Pre-construction anti-termite treatment

As the name says “Pre-construction anti-termite treatment” is a solution which is done before the construction of a house. This method includes-

1. Foundation Trench Treatment
2. Soil Treatment
3. Treatment of wooden members
4. External Perimeter Treatment

Anti-termite piping system or ATPS is a revolutionary anti-termite treatment procedure, which comes under pre-construction anti termite treatment. In the process, some PVC pipes are planted into the ground, around the building foundation to create an anti-termite chemical pathway that injects at any time without making a hole in your floor.

The installation process is one time so, the chemical can be injected again and again whenever you face any termite infestation without damaging the floor. Due to the durability & effectiveness of ATPS, it is somewhat expensive than other treatments.

b. Post Construction Treatment

This is a method of termite control which is done when a building/house is ready for habitation or the residence is already occupied. This method is carried out when the house got affected by infestation of termites via soil, wooden furniture, electrical fixture etc. This method includes-

1. Treatment of soil under floors
2. Treatment of wood works
3. External perimeter treatment

Termite treatment price is determined by the size of the house. If your house is big the cost will be more, if house is small the cost will be less.

 “Anti-termite treatment rate per sqm” is the prime factor for rate calculation. Size of your house is not only the physical area, in a big house there will be a lot of furniture & fixtures. If the furniture is affected then the area of “ITEMS” will be included in the total dimension of house.

b. Building material used

There are approx 3000 known species of termites. Their favorite place & food is damp wood and clay like soil such as Laterite. If you have used these to materials in a larger quantity to build your house then termite infestation would be high and obviously price of the service will also increase.

c. Severity of infection

It will take more time and effort to get rid of these invaders. Thus, the price may Increase. In contrast if you check the termite problem in early stage it will be less expensive.

d. Type of treatment

• Cosmetic – In this kind of damage termites damage only external structure of your house, which generally does not affect your overall house.Structural – On the other hand, in this kind of damage termite-damaged beams and joints.

Treating cosmetic damage will be cheaper than treating structural damage.
