Yes i’ve had pest control services in my house before but they could not find any termite colonies or nests, so nothing much was done. I think I will be getting another pest control service once again to reevaluate the problem. Hopefully they’ll find something.

Thanks! I’ll check that out. I’ve tried termiticide sprays in the past but to no avail. I will definitely try out the powdered types!

I might try and get another pest control unit in and hope for the best. Until then, I’ll have to bear with these plastic containers :’)

Ugh you’re so lucky! Humid countries like where I live is a haven for all kinds of creepy crawlies. Unfortunately the termites eat my books.

It’s pretty humid where I live with an average of 83% humidity with a relatively low dew point, so I believe the air is dry from where I am too. I have close relatives who live near me and they never had any issues with their bookshelves. I’ve hired pest control in the past but they couldn’t find any traces of termite colonies either. Perhaps my housing area might just be more prone to inviting certain pests :(
