Termites! Yikes!

Post by milkman » March 31, 2014, 11:12 am

Boys, I just found out my home has termites! I don't like using toxic sprays- they'd probably kill my wife's folks who live there. In America there are companies that offer treatments that aren't toxic to people or are less toxic. Is there such a company here, and does anyone have experience with them?

Wow,I know a number of farangs in Udon who would be interested in acquiring those sort of sprays ! Have you got more details,please ? 8)
Faroh East,mentioned by parrot,is a well established company with a good reputation.Situated on the ring road....go past Tesco Lotus Extra on your left.....straight on at the next set of lights (Suzuki dealer) and Faroh East is on the left about 50 metres from the next traffic lights.
Also in the same complex is Faroh House which is a quite upmarket restaurant.Outside dining and aircon.
Food is reasonably priced and they have a good selection of wines and Belgian beers.I'd say similar standard to Udon Wine Society or Good Everything.....very popular at nightime.
Enjoy a pleasant dining experience whilst you discuss eradicating those termites ! ;)
Just when I thought our chance had passed,you go and save the best for last.
