Thin, mud-like tubes are visible on surfaces or along joints, appearing as narrow brown trails formed by termites as they travel between their underground colonies and wooden food sources for movement & protection
Cause
- Excess dampness from leaks, poor drainage
- Direct connections between wood & grounds
- Presence of cellulose above ground
- Gaps in foundations, walls, or slabs
- Proximity to termite colonies
- Lack of anti termite treatment on soil
- Using of untreated wood & soil (pots) inside house
Impact
- Termite colony under soil reduces grounds stability
- Damages to door/window frames, furniture
- Electrical short-circuit
- Health hazard
- Quickly spreads to surrounding areas
