Termites are the #1 property threat in Shah Alam. Our specialist termite treatments protect your home and investment with proven methods and up to 5-year warranty.
Termites are the most destructive pest affecting properties across Shah Alam. These silent destroyers work around the clock, eating through timber structures, door frames, kitchen cabinets, and roof trusses โ often causing tens of thousands of ringgit in damage before homeowners even notice their presence. In Malaysia's tropical climate, subterranean termites thrive in the warm, humid soil beneath our homes and commercial buildings.
At Mr Pest Control Shah Alam, we have treated thousands of properties across the district for termite infestations since 2018. Our founder Jason Tan established the company with a focus on thorough, honest termite inspections and effective treatments โ because we saw too many homeowners being sold unnecessary services or receiving half-measures that left their properties vulnerable.
Shah Alam's residential landscape โ from the terrace houses in Kota Kemuning to the semi-Ds in Setia Alam โ presents unique termite challenges. Older properties with timber-heavy construction are particularly at risk, but even newer developments can be affected if proper pre-construction treatment was not carried out or has since expired.
The most common termite species we encounter in Shah Alam properties are:
We use multiple proven approaches depending on the severity and type of infestation:
We inject termiticide into the soil around and under your property's foundation, creating a continuous chemical barrier that kills termites on contact. This is the most common treatment for existing infestations in terrace houses and semi-Ds.
Strategic placement of bait stations around your property. Termites carry the bait back to the colony, eliminating the entire nest โ including the queen. Ideal for properties where drilling is difficult or undesirable.
Applied during the building phase before the concrete slab is poured. Creates a long-lasting chemical barrier in the soil beneath new construction. Essential for new developments and renovation projects.
For active infestations, we perform targeted treatment to the affected areas โ injecting termiticide directly into mud tubes, infested timber, and surrounding soil to eliminate the colony fast.
Hollow-sounding timber: Tap on door frames, skirting boards, and window frames. A hollow sound means termites have eaten the inside.
Mud tubes on walls: Pencil-thin mud trails running along walls, foundations, or ceilings are a clear sign of subterranean termite activity.
Tight-fitting doors or windows: Termite damage causes warping in timber frames, making doors and windows stick.
Discarded wings: Finding small piles of translucent wings near windows or light sources indicates a termite swarm has occurred nearby.
Bubbling or peeling paint: Moisture from termite activity underneath can cause paint to bubble on walls and timber surfaces.
Damaged furniture: Sagging shelves, crumbling timber, or visible channels in wooden furniture indicate active feeding.

Yes. The termiticides we use are approved for residential use and are applied in controlled amounts. We recommend staying out of treated areas for 2 to 4 hours. Our technician will brief you on all safety precautions before starting.
We recommend annual termite inspections for all properties in Shah Alam. Properties over 10 years old, those near construction sites, or homes with previous termite history should consider inspections every 6 months.
Our soil barrier treatments come with up to 5 years warranty. If termites return during the warranty period, we retreat your property at no extra cost. Baiting systems include ongoing monitoring as part of the service agreement.
DIY products may kill visible termites but rarely reach the colony. Subterranean termite nests can be metres away from visible activity. Professional treatment targets the entire colony and creates barriers that DIY products cannot achieve.
