Spring blossoms and everything recovers
It's also the time of day when termites are flying all over the sky and thrive
From today, the termite season has arrived
It will run until April 20 😱
(Termite Fly-by-Fly Period from 28 March to 7 May)
-Scalp tingling warning-
⚠️⚠️⚠️
Recently, many friends have responded to the District Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau
There are a lot of "uninvited guests" in the house
In the cracks of the walls, in the boards, in the socket holes......
It can be described as "pervasive and crazy output"
It's a real headache 🙇🙇
Entering the house to exterminate ants
[Termite extermination] the best strategy
Recently, the District Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau has received a number of community residents to respond that there are many termites in the home, although the appearance of the wardrobe cabinet seems to be complete, but it is broken with a light touch of a tool, and even more, the wall and socket are also invaded by termites, and the inside is crawling with dense larvae, which are all traces of termite erosion and become full of holes.
After receiving the residents' request for help, the staff of the District Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau checked the information as soon as possible, and arranged termite technicians to check in time after confirming that it was within the scope of the treatment, and carried out termite extermination treatment on the residents' homes, and popularized the daily termite prevention measures to the residents after the eradication was completed. For those that are not within the scope of treatment, inform residents clearly and in a timely manner, and scientifically guide residents to purchase termite drugs for extermination or contact termite prevention and control institutions (companies) for door-to-door extermination.
The hidden dangers of termites should not be underestimated

Q: What are termites?
Termite, also known as termite, belongs to the phylum Arthropod, Insecta, Isoptera, and its social grades are mainly divided into queen ants, king ants, soldier ants, worker ants, winged adults, etc. Termites are commonly known as "white ants, flying ants, rising water moths, large water moths", etc., are the oldest social insects that live and evolve on the earth for at least 130 million years, mainly feed on lignocellulosic materials, and are important insects to maintain the ecological balance of nature, but because they can harm housing construction, landscaping, cultural relics and ancient buildings, reservoir dams, communication cables, cloth and paper, etc., plus its harm has the four characteristics of "concealment, extensiveness, severity and irreversibility", it has become one of the "world's five major pests".
The termite species in Qingbaijiang mainly include: black-breasted scattered termites, black-winged soil termites, new Chinese scattered termites, sharp-lipped scattered termites, round-lipped scattered termites, and oval-lipped scattered termites, among which, black-breasted scattered termites mainly harm housing buildings, and black-breasted soil termites mainly harm garden trees and reservoir dams.

Termites can enter the home through "flying", "climbing" and "carrying", causing serious losses to people's family property.
"Flying": During the termite breeding season, a large number of winged adults around or inside the house fly out, and they can develop into a new colony after a few years if they are successfully matched and survive in a suitable environment in the house.
"Climbing": termites crawl into the house through the soil by building ant paths or from building gaps, pipelines, etc., and can also spread in adjacent houses.
"Belt": Termites can be brought into the house through activities such as decorating wood and using old furniture, and can also be brought outdoors through activities such as garden filling and transplanting of green plants, and then enter the house through "flying" and "climbing".
Q: What is the difference between termites and ants?
Termites are incomplete metamorphosis of the Isoptera and feed mainly on woody fibrous materials, while termites are completely metamorphosed hymenopteran insects and are omnivorous.

Q: What is the separation and flight period of termites?
The phenomenon of winged adults in a mature termite colony flying away from the original colony under suitable conditions is called "separate flight". Under natural conditions, the time between the beginning of the first flight of a mature termite population and the end of the last sequential flight in a year is called the "flight period".
Q: Do termites spread diseases?
Termites feed mainly on wood fibers, are not vector insects, do not bite, are not toxic, and do not transmit diseases.
Q: How can I find out if I have termite damage in my home?
Termites like warmth and humidity, photophobia, and strong concealment of hazards, except for the flight, it is difficult for ordinary people to find; Outside of the flight period, you can find out if there is termite damage in your home by the following methods:
1. "Look"👀: Check whether there are traces of termite erosion in the wooden components of the house, and the exposed signs of termite activities such as ant paths, flying holes, ventilation holes, and excrement. It is necessary to focus on the places where termites are easy to breed (such as: kitchens, toilets and other dark and damp places), the surface of the wood materials damaged by termites is often black or irregular water stains, which is obviously different from the normal conditions of the surroundings.

2. "Listen"👂: Use a screwdriver and other tools to knock on the wooden posts, wooden beams, door and window frames and other parts that termites may inhare.
3. "Prying"🔨: Use inspection tools to pry open the parts where termites may occur through "looking" and "listening" to find and verify whether there is termite activity.

Q: How to deal with termites in an emergency?
After termite damage is discovered, it is best to entrust a professional termite control unit to treat it or choose a professional termite control drug for treatment. If termites are found to be winged adults flying separately indoors, the following emergency treatment can be done:
1. Manual killing, such as patting, beating, stepping and other methods to kill the flying termites in time, or sweep the flying termites together, and concentrate on killing them by flooding, or you can place a basin of water under the flying hole to let most of the winged adults fall into the water.
2. When termites fly outdoors or in neighbors' homes, close the doors and windows in time to avoid attracting termites to nest indoors. Once an adult termite is found to have flown into the room, it can be killed in the above way.
Tips: In order to ensure the treatment effect of termite control drugs in the later stage, try not to spray household hygiene insecticides such as pesticide on termite flying holes or hazard points.

Q: How to prevent termites?
New construction and renovation are the two most effective times to prevent termites. According to statistics, the first floor without a basement is the most vulnerable to termite damage. The reasons are as follows: 1. The common use of wood products in decoration provides a food source for termites. Especially when decorating second-hand houses, the original wooden components are likely to have been invaded by termites, and if preventive treatment is not carried out, it will bring hidden dangers. 2. In the process of decoration, the protective layer that has been built is destroyed, which provides an opportunity for termite damage. 3. The materials purchased and transported may carry termites, providing an opportunity for termites to spread and spread. 4. The popularization of air conditioning and heaters has made the indoor environment of "spring all year round" formed, creating more suitable conditions for termites to survive and reproduce. 5. After the renovation, a lot of hidden spaces are formed, which is conducive to the survival and reproduction of termites.
Q: What are the ways to accept termite control needs?

Obligation to extinguish during the treatment period
During the 15-year treatment period, termite damage is found to be voluntarily eradicated by the local termite control agency. Owners can go to the property service company to inquire or directly consult the local termite control agency by phone to find out whether all houses fall within the scope of compulsory eradication during the treatment period.
It does not fall within the scope of the treatment period
Inform the termite damage households that do not belong to the scope of the treatment period in a timely and clear manner, and scientifically guide the public to purchase termite drugs for extermination or contact termite prevention and control institutions (companies) to come to the door for extermination.
