Termite Services

 

Show us the area(s) of concern and we will perform a free limited inspection that is usually non-invasive.
Many times these areas require only small local, low cost treatments.

Letting these existing problems compound over time does not make good sense.

Here at Alpha Ecological Pest Control we pride ourselves in giving our customers a professional and friendly service together with advice based on what is right for you.

The building code  highly recommends 6 monthly and no longer than 12 monthly inspections of properties. Here in Alice Springs we highly recommend 6 monthly inspections for high risk properties. How do i know if my home is high risk you ask?

There are some things that you can assess yourself to see if you fall into this category. These are; do you live in Alice Springs and...

1. Is your home built on a slab?
2. Are the walls built with a timber frame?
3. Is your roof truss made from timber?
4. Does any timber contact the ground and attach to the house?
5. Has it been more than 12 months since your last inspection?
6. Does your property have large trees or are there any nearby?
7. Has there been any previous termite treatment done?
8. Are there any garden beds adjacent to the home?
9. Is there any prolonged moisture (leaks etc) around the home?
10. Are you aware of any neighbours that have a problem?

If you answered yes to two or more of these questions then unfortunately you fall into the high risk category, don’t panic.

Alpha termite control services Kenya provides premier termite control in Nairobi and all-over Kenya for both home-owners and businesses to protect their properties.

Termites are of great value in nature as they help break down cellulose and create rich soil. Fallen trees and old logs are broken down into nutritious soil enrichments. But when termites get near or into our structures, they must be controlled. Termite extermination,  annual cost of termite damage to buildings in KENYA is greater than that of fires, storms and floods combined according to researchers.

Termites is the common name of a group of chemically complex insects that live in communities as ants do. They have long been known as white ants however this is not entirely accurate for termites are like ants only in their habits of living together and that they are small in size. Actually termites are more closely related to cockroaches and grasshoppers.
Termites digest wood, paper , and other material containing cellulose, with aid of protozoain their bodies. They do much damage in tunnelling through the wood work of houses destroy books and furniture , and do great damage by tunnelling through fence posts, trees, timbers of wooden buildings, bridges ,trestles , and other structures. In houses they eat, cloth furniture, books and paper.
