Termites are common pests that can cause irreparable damage after establishing themselves within your home. They feed off of wood or any organic matter that contains cellulose. If you suspect that termites have invaded your property, the first step is to call an exterminator who can conduct a thorough inspection. The licensed exterminators at Dick’s Fumigation Services in Wailuku, HI, are here to explain how they use the Termatrac™ T3i device to identify termites in the home.

How It Works

The Termatrac T3i is a multi-tool device designed with various features to identify termites and other common pests that affect home and business owners. Rather than having to remove walls or drills holes to find insects, this device uses a precision-calibrated radar that can see through various types of material like timber, plaster, and brick.

Why It’s Special

The device also features a built-in moisture sensor that identifies areas with high concentrations of moisture within the walls. These areas are considered high-risk for a termite infestation. It has a meter-style interface that shows the comparison of the moisture percentages. The sensor is also padded to ensure there are no marks or residues left on the wall when scanning for moisture.

The thermal feature on the Termatrac T3i allows the exterminator to scan for any surface temperature changes along the wall, which could also indicate the presence of termites. This is because these types of pests generate heat, especially when building nests within the walls. The data is then stored and can be used later for comparison and review.
