How to Spot Deemak (Termites) in Wooden Wardrobes Before Severe Damage
Hollow sounds, mud tunnels, discarded wings — learn the red flags to protect luxury furniture in Indian homes.
Subterranean termites (Deemak) thrive in warm humid conditions. In high-rise apartments and bungalows alike, termites usually enter through expansion joints or damp bathroom plumbing walls.
1. Mud lines along skirting boards & door frames. Termites build mud shelters to retain moisture while feeding on cellulose. Check behind wardrobes, under beds, and around wooden door frames.
2. Papery hollow sounding wood. Gently tap wood with your knuckle or a coin. A papery hollow sound indicates internal structural hollows.
3. Mud inside electrical switchboards. Termites frequently travel through concealed PVC conduits behind switchboards.
4. Swarmer wings around night lamps. Translucent wings discarded in monsoon seasons indicate an active swarm mating in the vicinity.
