My mom sent me an email (yes, that’s how high tech we are. we email instead of calling each other) today informing me about the termite problem in our house. She said she woke up this morning and saw a trail of termites on her bedroom wall. I told her it could be just ants but she insisted they were termites. We argued for some time via Yahoo Messenger and after checking out this termite identification guide online, I finally agreed that we have termites. And what timing! Considering my 10th month old niece was scheduled to sleep there over the weekend. Anyway, I’m deciding what to do with them, with the help of killthetermites.com website. I have a few options and all of them require the use of pesticide. According to the guide, you can also get termites by bringing in used furniture. So better be careful when buying used stuff, you never know what you’re taking home with you.
