A Safety 1st Tip from Pest King

Termites-
Should termites begin to swarm inside
your home, do not under any circumstance use a fly or other over the
counter spray to resolve the problem!
- Don’t panic! A
decision to treat for termites should be made within a couple of weeks of swarming.
- They will always fly towards a source of light.
- Termites do not bite.
- Cover your mouth and nose while inside your home so
as not to inhale the bugs.
- You can vacuum them up easily after swarming
- Swarming occurs in the early-mid morning hours in spring.
- Look for the point they are entering your house.
If possible plug the entrance point up with anything: heavy
tape, putty, bubble gum or something of the like.
- Use a solution of water and dishwashing detergent to
spray on them. This will
“fowl” their wings and they will die from suffocation.
Also, it will not harm you or most of the surfaces in your
home. Mix 3-4 tbsp liquid
soap per 16 ounces of water.
This is safe for you and your family!
- Termites and their control is confusing, even for
some of those who treat them! Don't expect to be able to compare
methods of treatment. Most people make a decision based on what
they can compare...and that is the price. Listen to the
presentations carefully and choose the one that offers the greatest
protection for your home. You get what you pay
for!
- Do not purchase from the first person that says they
can solve the problem! Their solution may only address their
financial needs first...not yours! Remember that you get what you pay
for!
- Listen to several termite inspectors before deciding
whom you trust to do the work. Check their references and the
BBB (Better Business Bureau -
call 713-868-9500.
- Remember, the sales person who sells the job will probably not
be the same person who performs the work.
Things he promises are not necessarily going to be done by the person
who comes to do your work. Ask for confirmation in writing of particular points you want
to insure are done in a certain way.
