Termite Control in Cunningham Road, Bangalore

The area is established and relatively dense, with older buildings alongside newer apartments and commercial blocks. Termites can matter in older homes here, where original timber frames and built-in woodwork may never have been treated.

Commercial premises carry different risks. Offices are fitted out with wooden partitions, panelling, workstations and storage cabinets, and record rooms hold boxes of paper. Landscaped compounds keep soil moist and close to the building. In both cases, activity can spread for a long time behind panels and inside storage before it becomes visible.

• Mud tubes on walls, columns or behind fitted panelling.
• Wooden partitions, skirting or workstation panels that sound hollow or bulge.
• Damaged files, boxes or paper records in storage rooms.
• Wings near windows or lights in the morning, particularly after rain.
• Soft or crumbling wood in door frames at ground-floor entrances near landscaping.

For offices, hospitals, clinics, restaurants and hotels, we plan the inspection and treatment with the facilities or administration team and schedule the work to limit disruption where possible. For homes, we inspect the woodwork and, for independent houses, the plinth and garden edge.

• Commercial: corporate offices, hospitals and clinics, restaurants, cafés, hotels and retail shops.
• Residential: luxury and serviced apartments, older homes, independent houses and gated communities.

Not every enquiry here is commercial. Older homes in the area can have original timber in their door and window frames, ceilings and built-in cupboards, and those are the places we check first. In an apartment, the inspection covers the flat's wardrobes, kitchen units, door frames and any wooden flooring, and we tell you if activity seems to be coming from shared walls or the building structure.

Because these are finished buildings, the treatment is post-construction: it targets the affected woodwork and the routes termites use through walls and floors. If you are planning to rebuild or add a new structure on your property, pre-construction anti-termite treatment can be scheduled with your builder before foundation work starts.

• Survey of the premises, including fitted woodwork, storage rooms and the building edge near landscaping.
• A written explanation of the affected areas and the recommended treatment, with a quotation.
• Scheduling agreed with you so treatment fits around working hours or patient areas where possible.
• Treatment of affected woodwork and, where suitable, drilling and injection at entry points.
• A digital service report for your records.

• Keep archive boxes on racks and away from walls, and review stored records periodically.
• Keep planting and irrigation from wetting walls and wooden frames at entrances.
• Have fit-out contractors check existing woodwork before new partitions or panelling go in.
• Consider scheduled inspections under an annual maintenance contract (AMC) for larger premises.
