Photo Album: Garage Door Full of Termite Swarmers in Belford, NJ
Swarmers Were Busting Out
These termite swarmers were coming out of the door frame to the customers garage! There were thousands of them!
Swarmers Are on a Mission
The termite swarmers are the winged adult reproductives in which the colonies send out in search of a hospitable area. Unlike other termites in a colony, swarmers are attracted to light. They want to be outside in the bright sun, not inside the dim interior of a home or business.
Going for Treatment
With the owner's permission, since termites live beneath the soil, we drilled into flooring of this area, the garage, and around the entire exterior of the building. Once that was finished, we injected a liquid termiticide into each one of the drill holes on the inside and outside of the home.
Foaming Termiticide
We also injected a foaming version of the termiticide into the door frame. This treatment binds to the treated areas and creates a protective zone that is undetectable to the termites. The termites will come in contact with the termiticide, bring it back to their nest, and then transfer it throughout their colony. The termiticide spreads rapidly like a virus throughout their colony! Once we finished injecting the termiticide, we plugged and filled in each one of the drill holes. In short amount of time, any and all termites will be exterminated and the home will be properly protected from termites for many years.
