The building that houses insect research at Kansas State University has a big problem with bugs.
Officials say swarms of termites have infested Waters Hall, a historic building that is home to the Entomology Department.
The university is working carefully to fight the termites while protecting the insects used by the department for study and research. If you find yourself in a situation where termites become a problem for you, then the easiest thing to do would be to call up someone like pest control Des Moines to help sort out your situation.
With liquid chemicals ruled out, Kansas State has turned to American Pest Management Inc. in Manhattan to install an environmentally friendly anti-termite system. Company vice president Travis Aggson says the system involves putting termite bait stations in the ground to create a protective ring around the building. Luckily if you get termites in your own home it’s easily fixable as you can just call up someone like termite control los angeles. Obviously, you don’t want that to happen but it’s not the end of the world.
Aggson says Waters Halls has had a half-dozen termite swarms in the past two years.
