Microwave method
The microwave method uses electromagnetic radiation to eliminate pests that infest wood and other organic materials. This thermal treatment requires no chemical products and is ideal for controlling termites, woodworms, and other wood-boring insects.
How it works
Microwave generators direct electromagnetic waves toward infested areas. The radiation heats the water contained in insect tissues, raising internal temperature to lethal levels. The treatment is localized and controlled, allowing specific areas to be treated without evacuating the entire property or applying chemical substances.
Advantages
The microwave method is completely chemical-free, making it safe for inhabited spaces, antique furniture, museum pieces, and valuable wood structures. It leaves no toxic residues and the treated area can be used immediately after the procedure. It is especially effective for localized dry-wood termite infestations.
