When a new house is constructed there is always some extra wood (that could not be used in making wooden doors, windows and cupboards) which remain unused. In northen part of India homeowners have a tendency to store that extra and left over wood in the overhead lofts. This stored wood which remains unattended attract\u00a0<strong>termites<\/strong>\u00a0and prove to be a hazard. Therefore If you have any form of timber stored inside or around your house , move it away from the building. Fix any leaky taps or dampness source that may attract termites. Property owners in India\u00a0can help reduce the risk of termites invasion through proper house upkeep, exterior home maintenance and dampness control.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12f9ee5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"12f9ee5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Another pathway of<strong>\u00a0termites traveling from one place to another<\/strong>\u00a0is through flying.
