Termites, commonly known as Deemak, are among the most destructive structural pests in the world. They work silently and remain hidden inside walls, floors, and wooden structures — often causing severe damage before they are even detected.

About Termites
What Are Termites?
Termites are social insects that live in underground colonies and feed on cellulose found in wood, paper, and plant materials. A single termite colony can contain thousands to lakhs of termites, making them capable of causing severe structural damage.
In North India, the most common species responsible for damage is Subterranean Termites, which live in soil and enter buildings through foundation cracks and hidden tunnels.
Termite Colony Structure
A typical termite colony consists of:
- Queen – Can lay thousands of eggs per day
- King – Responsible for reproduction
- Workers – Cause structural damage by feeding on wood
- Soldiers – Protect the colony
- Swarmers (Alates) – Winged termites that start new colonies
A mature colony can contain 1 to 10 lakh termites.
Termite Life Cycle
Termites undergo incomplete metamorphosis:
Egg → Nymph → Worker / Soldier / Reproductive
- Queen lifespan: Up to 10–15 years
- Workers: Live 1–2 years
- Colony growth: Can establish within 2–3 years
Because termites remain hidden underground, infestations are often detected late.
Types of Termites
Termites are classified into different types based on their habitat and behavior. The most common types affecting homes and buildings include subterranean, drywood, and dampwood termites, each causing damage in different ways.
Subterranean Termites
Subterranean termites live underground and build mud tubes to reach wooden structures. They are the most destructive termite species, silently damaging foundations, furniture, and buildings before the infestation becomes visible.
Drywood Termites
Drywood termites infest dry wooden structures such as furniture, doors, and beams without needing soil contact. They create hidden galleries inside wood and leave behind small pellet-like droppings called frass.
Dampwood Termites
Dampwood termites prefer moist or decaying wood commonly found in damp areas, leaks, or poorly ventilated spaces. Their presence often indicates excess moisture problems within the structure.
Most Common Termite in North India
In Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi NCR, and Chandigarh, the most common and destructive species is:
Subterranean Termite (Odontotermes species)
They are responsible for the majority of structural termite damage in North India.
Signs of Termite Infestation
- Mud tubes on walls or foundations
- Hollow-sounding wooden furniture
- Discarded termite wings near windows
- Cracked or blistered paint
- Sagging doors or wooden structures
Early detection can save lakhs of rupees in structural repairs.
Our Anti-Termite Treatment Services
Termites are classified into different types based on their habitat and behavior. The most common types affecting homes and buildings include subterranean, drywood, and dampwood termites, each causing damage in different ways.
Pre-Construction Anti-Termite Treatment
Pre-construction termite treatment is carried out during the construction stage before flooring is completed. It involves applying specialized termiticide solutions in soil to create a chemical barrier between the building structure and termite colonies.
Post-Construction Anti-Termite Treatment
Post-construction treatment is designed for existing buildings or termite-infested properties. This process includes drilling along walls, injecting termiticide into soil beneath the flooring, and treating wooden structures to eliminate termite colonies.
