Trouble with termites?

Today's topic: Termites galore!

Back in 1994, I was staying in Faber Hills Condo at West Coast Park. Whoa that place alot of Japanese families. Actually the whole of West Coast is infested with Japanese families, because there's the Jap Senior High there, another one (I can't rmbr which one) and another junior school just opposite NUS.

Back to the topic, that whole estate was termite infested! Alot of residents were complaining of termite infestations in their homes too, their wooden furnitures gnawed away bit by bit. Moreover, there were these winged termites that very often tried to fly into the study room (at night) but ended up knocking into the window glass panel! Hahaha serves them right.

Well, we only stayed there for a year for other reasons as well, like my mum felt super lonely there (alone at home while husband at work and children in school), and partly also due to the poor management there (facilities are terrible, I tell you!). Good thing we left early, because a year or so after that, the whole place was gone. Apparently we heard that the termite infestation couldn't be contained anymore, and they had to "nuclear" the whole place with termite poision! And no one wanted to live there!

Termites are tough pests to get rid of. But we all know we must aim the QUEEN. Yeah, but how do you get to her in the first place? Use this termite guide.
