Till now we learnt a lot about termites, how destructive they are, the level of damage they can do and how difficult it is to deal with them. To get rid of termites you need to seek help from professional anti-termite service providers. There are many common termite misconception in the market, today we are going to debunk them.

Termite Misconception

1. DIY termite measures

It is one of the most common misconceptions. Using DIY termite measures will help you to get rid of the termites. People use many measures like Kerosene oil, white vinegar & Lemon juice mixture and other methods. But the fact is these are not the permanent solutions.

2. Termites are part of the ant family

Sometimes people think that termites belong to the ant family this is not true. If we see termites from a distance they look like ants but if you look closely there is a huge difference.

3. Termites can chew concrete

Some people think that termites can chew the walls (concrete). It is not like that, this is the strangest misconception about termites.

4. Brick houses are safe from termites

Termites get attracted towards dampness & rotten wood. Doesn’t matter if you are living in a well-built house or a mud house, if your house is fulfilling the termite’s basic needs (food & shelter) they will definitely build their colony there.

5. Termites never come back after treatment

Absolutely NO! After anti-termite treatment routine inspection is very necessary to prevent the colonization of termites.

6. Termite infestation can be easily identified

This is also a myth. As we already know, termites look like ants from a distance. So, most of the time people see them roaming around their house but ignore thinking that it is just an ant. Only professional anti-termite service providers can identify a termite infestation.

7. Termites carry disease

Termites are a threat to the structures but they don’t carry any kind of disease with them.
