Dilemma with Termites
Posted: Sat Nov 16, 2024 2:50 am
Hey… there’s something that had been bugging me lately.
Last year, while I was moving my stuffs from the old house to the new house, I wasn’t able to move the stuffs completely, so some are still left in the old house. Few weeks later, when I am free to resume work, something awful happened… some of my stuffs got destroyed by those pesky termites… these a-holes destroyed some of my good books, and I feel really pissed off at the same time just relent about it…
Then recently, my sister in law showed me another incident: in her small cafe, in a cabinet, there is my empty box which I though it had been discarded long time - which is destroyed by termites.
While all my decks collections are safe in the new place, which is “claimed” to have been treated with anti-termites… I kinda feel scared… here in Asia, usually on warm climates, you would find these flying things just circling around lights - and this is part of the cycle of those cruel termites. Should at least a few of them survived, and it invaded the new home without I even realized it, it be disaster slowly destroying stuffs in the house.
Knowing these abomination is after anything that is wood or paper, how to make those boxes containing playing cards and/or exquisite wooden boxes containing decks are safe… Sometimes it make me hate myself on living in warmer climates: that I had to deal with this annoying pest… I somewhat starting don’t like getting any sets that involves cardboard boxes/hard woods
