With the promotion of ZEH (Net Zero Energy House), the foundation insulation method is becoming widespread. The foundation insulation method considers the space under the floor as part of the living area, making the application of chemicals in that space inappropriate. Additionally, with the spread of the slab foundation method, there may be owners who hesitate to apply chemicals in the underfloor space. Starting with the foundation insulation method, we offer various anti-termite methods tailored to different housing structures (slab foundations, spaces that cannot be accessed under the floor, no pedestrian access), uses (stores, apartments, multi-family housing), and resident circumstances (those who do not want chemicals applied, chemical sensitivity), as well as durability specifications. We respond to various inquiries regarding termite prevention for "custom homes" from construction companies, design offices, and builders. 【Q&A】 ■Q. Can termites be prevented with just an exterior treatment? 　A. If it is a slab foundation structure, it can be managed with just exterior treatment. ■Q. Is it safe for people sensitive to chemicals? 　A. Since no chemicals are applied under the floor, there is no contact with the chemicals. Additionally, unpleasant odors from under the floor do not flow into the living area. For inquiries, requests for materials, or follow-up after catalog downloads, we will contact you through our agency, Kodama Shokai Co., Ltd.

For termites, which prefer warm and humid climates and have a particular fondness for "wood" such as wooden houses, Japan may indeed be considered a "paradise." Once termites invade a house, the damage progresses unknowingly. Termites create tunnels called "ant roads" to crawl up from the ground, so caution is necessary even in houses with concrete foundations or on the second floor. To prevent their invasion and damage, a common and effective method is to treat the ground beneath the floor with chemicals to create a barrier layer. If you are concerned about termite damage, it is advisable to consult a pest control professional. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*
