What We Use

Thermal Imaging Camera

Thermal energy is invisible to human eye but there are some cameras and other devices which can be used to see it. All living objects have this energy and at the beginning this feature was used only by military forces.

Today there is a wide range of different thermal imaging devices which are used for various purposes. So, thermal imaging cameras can be used for termite detection.

 

Camera identifies heat in the infested area what makes it clear whether you have termites or not. But here another problem appears. This kind of camera is hard to be used; it takes several days to learn how to do that.

Acoustic Emission Devices

Termites can make special sounds ad vibrations while moving and feeding. Sometimes vibrations in the wood can be heard by householders. In order to check termite activity acoustic emission devices can be used.

 
These devices can “hear” the noise 80 centimeters along the length and 8 centimeters to the deep and record it. The only problem is that acoustic emission device is huge and is difficult to hold.

Optical Borescopes

This one is very effective termite detection system. Usually borescopes use light which travels through small tunnels to see if you have termites or not. Borescopes are perfect if you want to reach inaccessible areas.

If you can’t find a hole or tunnel in order to place borescope, you can always drill it.

3-in-1 detector

Today 3-in-1 detectors are becoming more and more popular. The reason is that this kind of detector combines 3 important termite detection tools:

  1. Termite detection radar.
  2. Thermal sensor.
  3. Moisture sensor.
Making the combination of three critical devices, makes it possible to find, detect and confirm termite presence in a more effective way. 3-in-1 detector can work as radar, thermal and moisture sensor.

Moisture sensor helps to identify potential termite presence as it is known that high moisture attracts termites. 3-in-1 detector usually has display where all the information about signals can be seen.

Radar Technology

Termite detection radar technology appeared approximately 27 years ago. Today it is believed to be the most effective way for termite infestation identification.

Radar can find termites, confirm their presence and even find their nest location. Furthermore, radar technology doesn’t need any surface destruction (wooden object stays untouched) and saves a lot of time and money.

 

Termite detection radar works as any other kind of radars: it sends a special thermal signal to the object (or to the ground) and it reflects from these objects.

Termite detection radar identifies movement according to the same principle. This special signal easily goes through the walls, floors, ceilings and different materials.

If the signal meets termite, the information appears on the display. This technology makes radar simple to use.

Killing Stakes

This device has double-benefit action. Firstly, it is used for termite detection. You can easily install it into the ground: dig a hole in the ground and place the device in it.

As soon as the device identifies that you have termites, red indicator will pop-up. Secondly, Spectracide Terminate Termite Detection Stakes Kit contains a trap which attracts and kills termites.

Tenting

Regardless of the high cost and toxicity of this method, currently it is one of the most effective one.

 

The main thing is to find professionals in this field who will do everything correctly and to follow steps listed above to protect your family, plants, pets and furniture.

Simultaneously with the destructive struggle should be carried out antiseptic and repair of buildings and structures, if required.
