These are signs of termite infestation you can look out for in your apartment.
What's the most effective termite treatment in Singapore?
Singapore's tropical climate, characterized by high humidity and frequent rainfall, provides the perfect environment for termites, often colloquially referred to as 'white ants,' to flourish. These silent intruders pose a significant threat as they silently multiply, potentially causing extensive damage that leads to costly repairs and even structural failure. To rid your home of termites effectively, our state-of-the-art solutions are tailored specifically for Singapore's unique conditions.
Among the termite species prevalent in Singapore, two stand out as major culprits in causing damage: the subterranean termite and the drywood termite. Despite their differences, both species share the ability to tirelessly consume wood, engaging in their destructive feeding habits around the clock, without rest.
Our comprehensive service package boasts an impressive 8-year warranty, inclusive of retreatment services, designed to offer you unparalleled peace of mind. We understand the value of flexibility and offer 0% interest instalment plans to cater to your unique needs.

Where do termites come from?
Termites in Singapore originate from various sources, including:
- Underground Soil: Termites often establish their nests beneath the soil, constructing intricate tunnels and chambers. From these hidden colonies, they venture forth to seek out sources of wood to feed on, including wooden structures within properties.
- Infested Wooden Furniture: Termites can infest wooden furniture and items, spreading from these objects to surrounding structures. This makes it crucial to carefully inspect and treat any potentially infested pieces to prevent further spread.
- Via Mud Tubes: Subterranean termites construct mud tubes that serve as protective passageways between their nests and potential food sources. These tubes allow them to safely traverse across non-wooden surfaces and protect them from external threats.
- Flying Alates: Flying alates, or winged reproductive termites, emerge from established colonies during swarming seasons. They take to the air, seeking mates and new locations to establish colonies. If conditions are right, they can establish new termite nests, potentially leading to infestations in new areas.

Types of termites in Singapore
Termites are a common pest in Singapore, and there are several types of termites that can infest homes and structures. It's important to identify the specific type of termite infestation in order to determine the most effective treatment approach.
These termites make small colonies in dry wood and eat them up to make it hollow from inside.
These termites reach up to the surface from underground to infest buildings and structures.
These termites are less common. They are found in the garden as they feed on tree wood.
Rentokil - The World's leader in fast and effective termite control treatments
Termite control methods can be preventative, curative, or a combination of both. Pre-construction sites or new renovations can have preventative treatments done to deter the spread of termites. On the other hand, homes with infestations would need curative and preventive measures to rid termites and keep them from returning.
Thorough inspection using termite thermal inspection
Our Termite Home Inspection service goes beyond traditional methods, employing state-of-the-art technology such as thermal imaging and infrared termite detection to rid termites effectively. Our experts conduct a meticulous inspection, utilizing thermal termite inspection techniques like heat mapping and CO2 mapping, alongside visual examination.
This innovative approach allows us to pinpoint hotspots and infestations, ensuring a thorough assessment of your property's termite situation. Our experienced specialists will guide you through the gathered data, providing insights to help you comprehend the optimal solutions. Depending on the nature and extent of the issue, our professionals will recommend tailored preventative and corrective treatments.
Tailored Termite Treatments for New Homes and Structures
Whether you're in the pre-construction or post-construction phase, Rentokil offers comprehensive treatments designed to safeguard your investment. Our pre and post-construction termite treatments establish a termiticide-protected zone around the foundation, offering long-lasting defense for a minimum of five years. The termiticides we employ are approved and proven effective. These treatments are not only cost-efficient but also highly effective in preventing termite infestations. Trust us to ensure your new home or structure remains termite-free.
This termite eradication method is employed before the construction of a building. A liquid termiticide is sprayed to create a protection zone to prevent termite infestations.
This method creates a barrier to protect against termite infestation. It involves the drilling of holes along the perimeter of the building and injecting almost 5 litres of termiticide to get rid of termites.
Termite baiting stations will be installed in your premises after a termite inspection confirms you have active termites. This allows the termite workers to feed on the bait and share with other termites to spread the active ingredient throughout the colony.
A holistic solution that uses unobtrusive monitoring stations placed discreetly around the premises. Our termite experts will routinely monitor these stations for termite activity and when detected, the bait will be added to the system.

All you need to know about termite control
How long does it take to see results after the initial termite treatment?
The time required by a termite treatment to eliminate a termite colony depends upon two factors:
- Size of the termite colony
- Solution used to control the termite infestation
For anti-termite treatment in Singapore, Rentokil uses termite solutions that allow foraging termite to pass the solution within the colony. It creates a domino effect to eliminate the colony as the other termites get in contact with the infected one.
Should I go for preventative termite treatment?
It is ideal to have a preventative termite treatment in place. Often this is overlooked and maybe a common reason for termite colonisation in residential units. Using repellents is an ideal preventative measure to safeguard your premises against termite infestations. Preventative termite treatment keeps you safe and ensures the decolonisation of termites, if any. Termite control in Singapore is priced reasonably while offering you an effective and safe termite preventative treatment.
