    1) Termites can be divided into two categories according to their living habits.

    1.One is wood-dwelling termites: the colonies are of different sizes, and they build nests in the hollow parts of wooden buildings, such as wooden doors and windows, wooden floors, wooden houses, railway sleepers, wooden bridges, dead trees, etc., and feed on wood fibers, which are big pests of wood products.

    Timber is hollowed out and buildings are prone to collapse. Railway sleepers are mothed, affecting the service life and posing a great threat to traffic safety.

    2.The second is soil-dwelling termites: they build nests in the soil under the ground, or the nest rises above the ground into a tower, which is called an ant mound. Soil-dwelling termites feed on trees, leaves, and fungi.

    2) Termite prevention measures for new houses.

    1. Cleaning of the foundation of the house.

    2. Soil treatment outside the wall.

    1) Before backfilling the foundation ditch outside the wall, the wood formwork and the foundation ditch containing fiber sundries that cannot be removed after the residual uncleaned or cast-in-place concrete structure should be sprayed.

    Agent: 50 chlordane emulsion.

    Dosage: To taste.

    Concentration: 1:30

    2) After the foundation ditch outside the wall is backfilled (the filling is not compacted), spray the liquid medicine within the width of 50cm along the outer wall.

    Agent: 50 chlordane emulsion.

    Dosage: 40-50g m

    Concentration: 1:50-100 (medicine: the same under water).

    According to the soil moisture and permeability, about 3000g of thinner is sprayed evenly and continuously per meter, so that the penetration depth of the agent reaches about 30cm.

    3. Indoor floor treatment.

    1) Before the indoor foundation backfill, the residual wood formwork that cannot be removed after the uncleaned or cast-in-place concrete structure and the foundation or foundation ditch containing fibrous debris should be sprayed.

    Agent: 50 chlordane emulsion.

    Dosage: To taste.

    Concentration: 1:30

    2) After the indoor floor is backfilled and leveled, before pouring the concrete floor or shelving the moisture-proof overhead board, spray the liquid medicine on the cushion layer 50cm away from the inner wall.

    Agent: 50 chlordane emulsion.

    Dosage: 25 g m

    Concentration: 1:100-200

    According to the permeability of the floor, about 3000g of thinner is sprayed evenly and continuously per meter.

    Kitchens, bathrooms and other rooms that are often damp, foundations backfilled with foreign miscellaneous soil, located in old urban areas or mountain side miscellaneous lands, where the unexcavated part of the foundation indoors, may have termite hidden dangers, and should be fully applied.

    Agent: 50 chlordane emulsion.

    Dosage: 25g m2

    Concentration: 1:100-200

    According to the permeability of the floor, about 3000g of thinner is evenly sprayed per square meter.

    4. Wood component treatment.

    Wooden door frames and wooden window frames are made in batches, and the asphalt is sprayed with chemical solution before it hits the wall.

    Agent: chlordane**.

    Dosage: 5-10g only.

    Concentration: 1:15 30 (agent: kerosene).

    According to the adsorption of door and window frames, about 150g of thinner is applied to each one.

    Other wood components, such as wooden bricks, wooden roof trusses, etc., should be treated with pesticides when they are attached to the wall or where the components are handed over.

    5. Treatment of other parts.

    The soil around the entrance of the cable and pipeline from the underground to the interior, the foundation settlement joint, the expansion joint, etc., should be treated with the method of poisonous soil outside the wall.

    When it comes to termites, I am still afraid, termites are very powerful, at that time the whole home was about to be made a mess by termites, almost all of them were demolished and redecorated, the cabinets in the bedroom were all termites, and the wooden floors were empty as soon as I stepped on them. To be honest, termites are really troublesome, I think you probably understand the knowledge and harm of termites, I had termites on the door frame of my home last year, and then I bought a bottle of Liwei termite powder to cure it, and the medicine was said to be an infectious drug, and then when I changed the door, I found that the termites were all dead, it is recommended that you find the nest of termites first, and if you don't understand, ask the seller of medicine, they will teach you. Termites are not afraid, timely control, not difficult.

    Summary. Termites are a destructive pest that prefers to grow in damp places and can endanger the safety of many objects such as buildings, wood, crops, etc. The following is an introduction to termite hazards and prevention methods:

    Hazards: Destructive: Termites eat wood, often causing the wood to lose its original strength and stability.

    Termite waste can also clog basements and drains, causing dampness and harmful gases to trap in the room. Global: Termites are widely distributed around the world and can cause wreak havoc in a fairly short period of time.

    Concealment: Termites can be difficult to detect because they often construct tunnel structures that are buried in internal structures such as timber and basements and go unnoticed until the damage is already very apparent. Prevention and control methods:

    Technical control: Spraying termite pesticides, using preservatives for wood treatment and other technical methods can effectively control the reproduction and harm of termites. Physical isolation:

    Use lab-designed termite-proof technical isolation materials, such as aluminum sheets, stainless steel mesh, etc., to isolate the spread of termites and other pests. Biological control: Termite-loving natural predators such as ants and parasitic nematodes can be used to control the reproduction and spread of termites.

    Management and maintenance: early detection and reporting of termite hazards, regular repair and maintenance of termite-attacked buildings, timber, etc., to ensure their quality and performance, and follow the design regulations of structural buildings.

    Technical methods such as spraying termite repellents and using preservatives for wood treatment can effectively control termite reproduction and damage. Physical isolation: Termite-proof materials such as aluminum plates, stainless steel mesh, etc., are used to isolate the spread of termites and other pests using lab-designed termite-proof technology.

    Biological control: Termite-loving natural predators such as ants and parasitic nematodes can be used to control the reproduction and spread of termites. Management Maintenance:

    Early detection and reporting of termite hazards, regular repairs and maintenance of termite-attacked buildings, timber, etc., to safeguard their quality and performance, and to comply with the design regulations of structural buildings.

    In short, starting from many aspects, including technical control, biological control, management and maintenance, etc., can we effectively fight termites and protect the safety of people's hunger, life and property.

    Termite ecology and the main methods of control. For termites, the use of biological control methods on the one hand can reduce the economic losses caused by termites, on the other hand, can maintain the current ecological environment, in the process of ecological control, first need to understand the biological characteristics of termites, termites have a longer lifespan, the life span of termites is generally more than 20 years, termites belong to social organisms, because termites even have a longer ability and a larger amount of eggs, so termites and other prevention are more difficult.

    In the process of traditional termite control, chemical methods are mainly used for control, and organic drugs are used to spray termites in the living area, but it has caused the death of local animals and plants, so although the method has reduced the number of termites to a certain extent, it has not fundamentally solved the problem.

    Only by fully exploring the life history of termites and understanding the living conditions of termites can we find the right way to eliminate termites and minimize the damage caused to humans.
