1. JOPESTKIL KENYA TERMITES PRECONTRUCTION
TREATMENTS PROCEDURE
HOW DOES OUR PRE CONSTRUCTION TERMITE TREATMENT WORK?
Welcome to Jopestkil Kenya pre-construction termite treatment. With
termites, one of the most common termite infestation problems is that
these pests harbor in the soil before invading your home. And since these
pests live within your walls and wood beams, the infestation is only
discovered once the damages are already occured.
The risk of an infestation can be reduced if the new property is pre-treated
with termiticides before the slab is poured in. This is why future
homeowners and properties should invest in pre construction treatment
before the property is built.
Although this treatment could be expensive upfront, it will save you more
money from termite infestation treatments. Besides, it’s added protection
for your investment at present and in the future.
The pre construction anti termite treatment procedure can also be done on
wooden foundations to prevent other species from foraging in your home.
Unlike DIY remedies, pre construction treatment for termites has to be
done with the help of professional exterminators form Jopestkil Kenya pest
control experts. Also, only our licensed technicians can handle the
chemicals that will be used for the procedure.
OUR GENERAL TERMITE TREATMENT GUIDELINES
Builders and our exterminators can follow different guidelines for this
treatment. Another reason why you have to hire our professionals is that
each state imposes building codes and laws about the use of specific
pesticides.
All the pesticides for the treatment should be registered with the Pest
Control Products Board of Kenya (PCPB) the pest control products
regulatory agency
2. The following are some of the guidelines that technicians and builders
follow:
➡POISON THE SOIL USING TERMITICIDES
For a proactive and immediate result, builders will ask for soil treatment
before pouring the base slab. Jopestkil Kenya exterminators will have to
factor in the moisture level of the soil. If it’s too moist, the treatment will be
postponed until the area achieves an ideal condition.
After the soil treatment, there should be a 24-hour rain-free window to let
the chemicals kill the termites and to bond with the soil. Our exterminators
will check if the chemical emulsion is fully absorbed before green-lighting
the pouring of the concrete.
➡DIGGING HOLES AND POURING THE CHEMICAL
Another method that our exterminators can use is drilling holes within the
perimeter of the property. In addition, the termiticide will be poured into
the holes. This creates a surrounding barrier for your future home.
➡TREATING FOUNDATION AREA
Before the foundation is put to place, the spot will be treated with
termiticide to prevent the access of the pest. As you know, wooden
foundations are ever the main target of termites.
➡PARTICLE BARRIER INSTALLATION
After treating the soil and foundation areas, the construction builder may
also add a basaltic rock or sand as an additional barrier against the
termites.
Other treatment procedures may also be used depending on the building
codes in effect in your location. It’s best to work with our licensed termite
exterminators to ensure that the treatment is done safely and perfectly.
TYPES OF PRE CONSTRUCTION TREATMENT
There are four main types of pre construction anti termite treatment
procedure we use for residential purposes. Aside from homes, these
treatments also apply to commercial properties.
3. ➡SOIL TREATMENT
This is the most common treatment where our pest control
experts/exterminators poisons the soil using abrasive termiticides. Jopestkil
Kenya pest control experts will work on the area where the builders will
pour the concrete slab. Also, our exterminators will treat the area where
wood materials will be in contact with.
➡BORATE TREATMENT
If soil treatment isn’t possible due to some factors (nearby bodies of water,
etc.), borate treatment can be your alternative. Our exterminators will apply
this during the dried-in phase of the construction. The wood studs will be
treated to prevent the entry of termites strewning in.
Instead of termiticides, this process uses borate. It’s a potent termite killer
but safer for the environment since it’s a combination of boron and oxygen.
➡PHYSICAL BARRIER INSTALLATION
If any chemical treatment is out of the window, physical barrier installation
is another option. Here, a thick sheet of polymer will be wrapped around
the wooden parts of the house that are nearest to the ground. These
flexible sheets are infused with insecticides. Still, it’s odorless and can last
for 50 years.
Some would use mesh steel barriers as an add-on to other pre construction
treatments.
➡FOUNDATION TREATMENTS
This treatment is usually part of a bigger pre construction treatment plan.
The timber to be used for the foundation will be treated with termiticides to
make it termite-proof for years. Take note that this treatment will wear off
after a few decades.
➡RODDING TREATMENT
For this process, a metal pole that’s approximately 6 feet long will be used
to inject these termicides under the ground. On top of the pole is also knob
that keeps it pressurized.
4. The pole will be pushed into the ground to create a hole where the
pesticide formulation will be injected. In addition, this will be done within
an 18-inch distance.
This treatment is an option for those who don’t want a surface-based
application of the procedure.
THE ROLE OF HOME BUILDERS
The architect, building contractor, and engineers play a vital role when it
comes to pre construction treatments against termites. During the design
phase, you can bring up the treatment so the builder can contract our
licensed termite exterminators. Most experienced builders will have to
partner with our exterminators for this purpose from us.
The builders are responsible for the following steps of the treatment:
➡INSPECTION
The building contractor and our team will inspect the area in preparation
for the treatment. They will identify which soil areas should be treated. As
per your request, they will also procure pre-treated wood that will stay
termite-proof for years.
➡SITE PREPARATION
The site will be prepared for the treatment. For soil treatment, the slab area
will be isolated. Also, other treatment methods will be applied as the
construction progresses.
➡RIGHTFUL APPLICATION
Our termite control experts will perform the application in the area. Again,
only our licensed termite exterminators should handle the chemicals as
governed by federal and local laws.
PRE CONSTRUCTION TREATMENT PROCEDURE
Pre construction treatment may vary depending on the plan approved by
the builders and our exterminators. Generally, it will include the following
stages:
5. STAGE 1 – TRENCH TREATMENT
Once the builders finished excavating the trenches, the side and bottom of
these trenches will be treated with termiticides. Also, the foundation trench
and basement excavations must be treated with a higher concentration.
This will vary widely, but our expert exterminators will use 5 liters of
chemical emulsion per square meter of the area.
After this, the masonry foundation will be placed. Also, the builders will
install the retaining walls of the basement.
STAGE 2 – TREATMENT OF THE BACKFILL
At this phase, the experts will treat backfill with the same chemical emulsion
since it will be in contact with the wooden foundation. In addition, the
general practice here is 7.5 liters of emulsion for every square meter of
surface area. Again, this will vary depending on the concentration of the
chemical used.
STAGE 3 – WALL-FLOOR JUNCTION TREATMENT
The goal of this stage is to continue the termite protection from the vertical
soil level up to the inner wall and finished floor surface.
Before the subgrade is poured, a 30 mm x 30 mm channel will be placed in
all wall and floor junctions. This also includes all columns and walls.
From there, our termite control experts will drill holes until it reaches the
ground. They will pour the same anti-termite chemical emulsion into the
holes. This seals all possible termite entryways.
STAGE 4 – TREATMENT OF THE PLINTH FILLING
Plinth filling is the layer above the backfill. Our exterminator should treat
this as well before the builders place the stone or concrete bedding.
Furthermore, the rule of thumb is 5 liters of the anti-termite chemical
emulsion for every square meter. Again, the concentration of the chemical
will affect the amount applied.
STAGE 5 – TREATMENT OF THE EXTERNAL PERIMETER
6. Once the building treatment is complete, the finishing touches include
treating the external perimeter of the property.
Meanwhile, our termite control expert will treat the perforated soil under
the expansion joints of the lowermost floor using specialized termites
chemical emulsion. Also, the plumbing inlet and outlet points should be
treated. Still, our termite control expert should practice care so as not to
contaminate the water. The builder should check for possible leaks first
before the treatment.
Like plumbing inlets, electric conduits that pass through walls should be
treated accordingly. Also, our termite control expert should treat wall
channels . Some homeowners will opt for pre-treated walls as a better
option against the threat of termites.
PRE CONSTRUCTION TREATMENT COST
This will widely vary depending on some factors. Still, the main aspect you
should consider here is the type of treatment to be used.
For chemical treatments, our exterminator will charge per square foot or
meter. The soil type and compaction will also come in play. Furthermore,
some areas may have compact soil which may need more chemical
emulsion for better absorption.
Another aspect that we have to factor in is the size of your home. Also,
regardless of the material or chemical used, bigger homes will surely have a
higher pre construction treatment cost.
As for the builder, they may raise the foundation type and layout as an
issue when it comes to pre construction treatment against termites.
HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT LAST?
If conducted properly, the pre construction treatment will last around 2 to 5
years. This is already an effective treatment, but you still have to conduct
regular inspections to ensure that no termites have gone passed the
barriers made.
7. Just because your new home is protected with a treatment doesn’t mean
you can skip preventive measures. In addition, it’s best to keep your yard
clean of any potential food source and harborage of the pest.
You can avail succeeding treatments to sustain the benefits of a termite-
free home. Although DIY mitigation may work, our professional termite
treatment is still unbeatable.
ADDITIONAL STEPS DURING POST CONSTRUCTION
Once the house is complete and can be occupied, our team will look for
holes and other tiny details that they need to patch up. Also, the builder
and our team will patch any voids in the masonry with an anti-termite
chemical emulsion.
Also, all lose junctions will be sealed to patch up any possible pathways of
insect pests.
These treatments have a residual effect. However, if the chemical used is
abrasive, our exterminators may advise that you let the fumes dissipate first
before moving in.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: HOW MUCH DOES TERMITE PRETREATMENT COST?
A: The overall cost will depend on the size of the property, the type of
chemical used, and the labor costs of the technician. Additionally, the cost
is approximately 16 cents per square foot. Generally, this will cost more if
you request physical barriers and rodding.
Q: HOW DO YOU TREAT THE SOIL FOR TERMITES?
A: Termite treatment during the pre-construction phase will use chemical
flooding on the surface. Furthermore, you can opt for rodding, where the
exterminator injects termiticide-based to the ground. Also, the backfills and
plinth filling have to be treated first.
Q: HOW LONG DOES NEW CONSTRUCTION TERMITE TREATMENT LAST?
A: The efficacy of the treatment will last up to 5 years. This is already an
extended period, considering that rain and flooding will cause the
8. termiticides to be washed away. As for treated timber, the effect may last
longer.
Q: WHAT IS PRE CONSTRUCTION ANTI TERMITE TREATMENT?
A: This treatment protects your property even before the builders pour the
slab. It involves poisoning the soil on the slab area where your house will be
constructed. Moreover, our exterminators will treat foundation, inlets, and
outlets to discourage termite infestations.
FINAL WORDS TO WARD OFF TERMITES INFESTATION
The pre construction termite treatment will shield your property against the
threat of termites. Although it may cost more, it’s definitely worth it. To
add, it’s an investment that will protect your bigger investment. At the end
of the day, you’re going to save more money by avoiding termite
infestations for longer.
