The construction of a house is a long term investment and it has become a timely need to protect your beautiful house from termites. It is essential to divert your attention towards the treatment process against termites during the period of your house building as there is the likelihood of causing damage to all timber structures in the newly built house.
Retaining the services of a competent termite control company is important because termite control requires specialized equipment and knowledge available only from professionals. Termites, which are wood-destroying insects common in most areas of Sri Lanka, cause heavy damage annually. Wooden structures in the island have more than a 70 percent chance of being attacked by termites within 10 to 20 years. Termites may even begin attacking soon after construction.
Properly treating the soil beneath and around the foundation with termiticides before construction, called a pre-treatment, reduces the threat of termites.

None of the modern termiticides lasts very longer period in the soil due to their environmental friendly degradation. The termiticides available few years ago, such as DDT, Aldrin, and Dialdrin could persist in the soil a longer period, generally more than 10 years. These termiticides belong to a category of Organo Chlorine (Chlorinated Hydrocarbon) which is environmentally hazardous due to its slow degradation and bio accumulation. The Organo chlorine Termiticides are totally phased out in Sri Lanka.
Chemicals currently recommended to control termites cause minimum harm to environment and human beings. The reason for this is that these chemicals will not last long in the soil. This situation further intensifies with environmental conditions such as high humidity and high temperature prevailing in a humid tropical island like Sri Lanka.
Therefore, chemical barriers in the soil created by the termite control process could be depleted from the soil within 3 to 5 years. This has created a great disadvantageous situation for customers who obtain termite control service .Chemicals will have to be applied to the soil by drilling tiles, granites or timber flooring in the building when obtaining termite control service for an already built house. Also most of the house owners express their dislike against the drilling of flooring and it has become a challenge for the termite control field. Overcoming this challenge successfully John Piper International (Pvt) Ltd has introduced the (PIFTRS) pre installed flexi tube termiticide re treatment system titled "Piperguard" to tackle this situation and it has enabled the company to take another step forward in this field.
