Termite Control in Ajman

Termites, sometimes called white ants, are not ants at all. They are social insects that feed on cellulose found in timber, paper, cardboard and some building materials. They often work quietly inside walls and behind doors and cabinets, so months can pass before an owner notices a sign.

In Ajman, coastal humidity, leaks and soil contact around villas and houses can support activity by some species. That does not mean every property is affected, but periodic checks are sensible, especially if you see signs. We make no claims about figures or guarantees here; we explain what we actually find at inspection.

Villas and houses in Al Jurf, Al Rashidiya, Al Rawda and Garden City may be more exposed because of soil and garden contact, while apartments in towers more often show it in internal timber, doors and cabinets.

• Villas and houses: check foundations, gardens, boundary walls and wooden doors.
• Apartments and towers: check cabinets, doors, timber floors and leaks.
• Shops and warehouses: check wooden shelving, cartons and storage areas.
• Farms and plots: check wooden fences and trees.

If you have timber or parquet flooring, say so when you book so we can focus on it during inspection.

Steps that make the check easier.

• Do not scrape off mud tubes before we see them.
• Clear access to suspect cabinets, doors and walls.
• Tell us about leaks, repairs or earlier treatments.
• Photograph signs, where they are and when you first noticed them.
• Tell us about children, pets or anyone with allergies.

We explain before treatment what to prepare and how long to wait.

Fix moisture and leaks around and inside the building, and avoid leaving timber or cardboard in contact with soil. Keep garden trees and outdoor timber away from walls where possible.

Check doors, cabinets and timber floors periodically, and if new mud tubes or wings appear, request an inspection straight away.
