In Singapore, termites are commonly known as “White Ants” and are considered a major pest threat due to their feeding habits. They consume cellulose found in wood and wood products, resulting in potentially costly damage that can run into thousands of dollars. This damage may also extend to PVC casings and electrical wiring during exploratory feeding, necessitating expensive repairs to roofs, ceilings, wall panels, and furniture.
Termites, often hidden within walls and beneath floors, are notorious for being ‘silent destroyers’—capable of causing extensive damage before they are detected. These small pests can hollow out a wooden door within a month. With termite queens living for decades and laying thousands of eggs daily, colonies can expand to millions, leading to severe destruction.
Often, termite damage is only discovered after it has caused significant harm, leading to costly repairs and considerable stress. To mitigate these risks, it is crucial to schedule a termite inspection as soon as any signs of infestation are detected.
At Termite Treatment Singapore, we offer comprehensive termite inspections to identify and assess the extent of an infestation. Following our thorough investigation, we create a customised termite treatment plan tailored to your property’s specific needs. Our termite control solutions focus on addressing the underlying cause of the infestation and are designed to suit your home’s unique construction. We prioritise client satisfaction by ensuring that our termite control services effectively protect your property and meet your requirements.
Singapore’s warm and humid climate creates ideal conditions for termites to thrive. Termites in Singapore typically come from the following sources:
Subterranean termites build nests underground and create mud tubes to access food sources above ground, posing a significant threat to structures and foundations.
Drywood termites infest dry, sound wood and create colonies within the wood, often leaving noticeable exit holes and fecal pellets.
Preferring moist wood, dampwood termites thrive in decaying timber and can often be found in areas with high moisture content.
Also known as swarmers, flying termites are reproductive adults that leave their colonies to establish new ones, often seen during mating flights.
Tapping on wood that produces a hollow sound may suggest termite damage, as termites hollow out wood to feed on it.
Thin, winding tubes made of soil and wood, found on walls or foundations, are built by subterranean termites to travel between their nests and food sources.
Winged reproductive termites that emerge from their colony to mate and establish new colonies are a sign of active infestation.
Warped or difficult-to-close doors can indicate termite activity causing structural distortions.
Scratching or rustling sounds from inside walls may signal termites feeding on the wood within.
Small piles of sawdust-like pellets, or frass, near areas of termite activity, can indicate an infestation, especially with drywood termites.
Soil and wood tubes used by subterranean termites to protect themselves while travelling to food sources.
Wood that appears warped or uneven can be a sign of termite damage beneath the surface.
Severe termite infestations can lead to significant damage to a property’s structure, including compromised beams and supports.
Hard faecal pellets with distinct concave surfaces and rounded ends, commonly found near infested wood.
Termites consume wood’s cellulose, leaving it dry, brittle, and structurally compromised.

Our team of certified professionals is deeply knowledgeable about termite behaviour, enabling us to accurately identify the type of termite and recommend the most suitable treatment plan.
Our expert team begins by conducting a thorough examination of your property to accurately identify the pests and assess the extent of the infestation. This in-depth analysis allows us to tailor a termite treatment plan specifically for your needs.
Based on our findings and assessment, we developed a customised termite control solution. Our experienced technicians use effective and safe methods to target and eliminate the pests affecting your property and prevent reinfestations.
Our commitment extends beyond the initial treatment as we believe in long-term pest prevention. Hence, we provide regular follow-ups to monitor the situation and ensure that termites are effectively managed. This ongoing care guarantees continued protection and peace of mind for both residential and commercial properties.
To effectively prevent termites from damaging your property, consider the following measures:
Ensure that all cracks and crevices in your foundation are sealed. Termites can easily enter through these openings, so addressing them is crucial.
Fix any leaking pipes and downpipes. Continuous moisture from leaks creates ideal conditions for termites to thrive, so keeping them in good condition is essential.
Regularly check and repair any cracked or damaged roof tiles. Moisture entering through these areas can attract termites, so maintaining your roof is important.
Keep garden mulch and other organic materials away from the foundation of your home. By maintaining a distance between mulch and your property, you reduce the risk of termites gaining easy access.
Maintain a gap between your home’s exterior and soil, and avoid direct contact between wood and soil.
Keep your yard clean by removing debris, wood piles, and excessive mulch near your home’s foundation
Remove overgrown plants, wooden logs, and mulch that are in contact with your house. These materials can attract termites, providing them with both food and shelter.
The most effective treatments for termites include termite baiting systems, corrective treatment, soil treatment and integrated termite management approaches. Baiting systems target the colony directly, while soil treatment creates a barrier to prevent termites from entering. Professional pest control companies can recommend the best treatment based on your specific infestation and property type.
Termite damage often manifests as hollow-sounding wood, visible wood damage with a papery or thin surface, mud tubes on walls or foundations, and discarded wings from swarmers. In severe cases, structural elements of the property may be compromised, showing signs of warping, buckling, or extensive damage.
To get rid of termites at home, consider using professional termite control services. Treatments may include soil treatment, termite baiting systems, and spot treatments. Additionally, addressing moisture issues, sealing entry points, and removing wood-to-soil contact can help prevent future infestations.
Termites may return if the treatment is not comprehensive or if new entry points are created. However, with proper treatment and ongoing monitoring, the risk of reinfestation can be significantly reduced. Regular inspections and maintenance are crucial to ensure that termites do not return.
The number of treatments required depends on the severity of the infestation and the type of treatment used. Typically, an initial treatment is followed by several follow-up visits to ensure the infestation is completely eradicated.
The cost of termite treatment in Singapore varies depending on factors such as the size of the property, the extent of the infestation, and the type of treatment chosen. On average, treatments can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. To get an accurate estimate, contact us to get a quote.

Termite treatment is crucial because termites can cause extensive and costly damage to your property. They feed on wood and cellulose, leading to structural damage that can compromise the integrity of your home or business. Early and effective treatment helps prevent significant damage and maintains the value of your property.
When choosing a termite control company, consider factors such as their experience, reputation, and range of services offered. Look for companies with positive customer reviews, certified technicians, and comprehensive treatment plans. It’s also important to ensure they use safe, effective methods and offer ongoing support and maintenance.
Certain insecticides and repellents can help deter termites, but they are typically not a long-term solution. Professional treatments are more effective. Some products include termiticides that create a barrier or repellents that can be applied around the foundation of your home.
Baiting systems and soil treatment are among the fastest methods to kill termites. Baiting systems target and eliminate the colony over time, while soil treatment creates an immediate barrier to prevent termites from entering. Both methods are effective but may require different timelines for complete eradication.
Termites themselves are not harmful to humans as they do not bite or sting. However, the damage they cause to structures can lead to safety hazards and costly repairs. It’s important to address termite infestations promptly to avoid structural issues that could impact safety.
