The termites are coming up through the floors via the trim and through the tile grout in the bathroom. The termites are moving down the corridor toward collections areas. Our facilities staff was instructed to spray the pests with windex and vacuum them up. This doesn’t seem to be a sound solution to our infestation in my opinion. Am I wrong? Our building is treated yearly for termites, but this infestation has me concerned. What recommendations do you have for this issue? I have attached an image of just one of the traps that I set out this morning. Thank you for your time and any suggestions you have. All the best, Beth Carter Beth A.
