THE TERMITES AND THE CIVET CATS ARE BACK

The damn termites are back and are attacking my door frames and parquet floor. About 9 years ago they attacked my kitchen. I had them treated via the drilling process. It was messy and the guarantee was only for 3 years. Yesterday I had it treated using the Sentricon thing.

A few things I learn about termites and how they are killed:

• Never ever spray the termites with common pesticides like Morten, Bygone and such. Spraying will only anger them and they retaliate by going to other spots and eat your wood even more.
  
• 70% of the chemical used in the drilling technique will kill the termites and the other 30%will form lile a layer to prevent them from entering your house via electrical wiring passage and holes in your wall.


• By using the sentricon system the termites will eat the thing in the box , bring it back to the colony and every termites there will die, even the queen. How? I'm not sure. Perhaps the termites will eat the infected termites. However, it'll takes longer to treat them this way than by drilling.


• If you see trails of soils or dirt on your walls or near your built-in cabinets it means that termites are there. Don't try to clean them or chase the termites away. You need the termites to be visible so that treatment can be administered easily



• You can actually hear the termites eating up your woods when you place your ears close

  

I think Najib should use the sentricon system to get rid of the illegal immigrants in Sabah. My first trip to Sabah was years ago. When I was walking around the stores in KK I did see a lot of people loafing around during the day and doing nothing. So I asked one of the taxi drivers who are these people and why are they hanging around and doing nothing. The driver told me that they were illegal immigrants mostly Filipinos. I laud the government's effort their effort to get rid of them and I was certain some NGOs will make some noise regarding this. One sure did. I wish they would just shut up and let the government

The civet cats are back too and pooping on my new skylite roof. Damn.
