What Our Customers Say
Your Satisfaction Is Our Number 1 Concern. Quality Is Our Priority!
EXCELLENT Based on 214 reviews Posted on Google Andrew Wang7. August, 2026.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Engaged Termite Specialist Pte Ltd for a site assessment, and I am thoroughly impressed by their professionalism and honesty. A big shoutout to their technician, Mr. Ammar, who provided exceptional service and clear, expert advice. Upon inspecting the drywood termite activity on our guest room door, he provided an honest evaluation explaining that the infestation likely originated from within the wood prior to installation (less than 3 years). Instead of hard-selling unnecessary treatments, he advised us to request our contractor or ID to replace the door under warranty, noting that replacing the affected door effectively removes the colony. Best of all, there were no charges for the inspection and report. Highly trustworthy, knowledgeable, and customer-first. Highly recommended!Posted on Google Teo6.

Highly recommend them.. very good service from start to finish. got a few quotations and they offered competitive rates. Plus they came down to do an inspection. Some companies will not make a trip unless I engage them. They also provide a one yr warranty after the termites extermination for the whole house. While others only provides warranty for spot and worse, 6 mths from the day work start. They also set up a Wa chat grp and provides a report after every visit. Ammar and Fakhrul were very good in helping with the house inspection and termites extermination. Esha is also very prompt in replying to my queries and making appointments. My house is now free from termites. Thank you
Signs of an Ant Infestation in Singapore
Catch it early, a small ant problem becomes a large colony within weeks in Singapore’s climate.
- Ants trail along walls or counters: ants follow pheromone paths to food sources. A visible trail means active foraging.
- Piles of sawdust near wood: a sign of Carpenter ants hollowing out door frames, furniture, or floorboards
- Winged ants near windows: swarmers shed their wings after mating and signal a mature, expanding colony nearby
- Tiny holes in wooden surfaces: Carpenter ants bore entry tunnels; check windowsills, skirting boards, and cabinets
- Ants inside sealed food packaging: the infestation is advanced and the colony is large enough to send multiple foraging trails
- Dirt or debris mounds near walls: nest excavation material pushed outward, common with Fire ants and Crazy ants
How to Get Rid of Ants Permanently in Singapore
Spray kills workers, not the queen. The only way to eliminate ants permanently is to destroy the colony at the source. Here are the 5 methods that do exactly that.
- Gel Bait Stations Collapse the Entire Colony: Worker ants carry the bait back and feed it directly to the queen, wiping out the entire colony within 7–14 days. Place it on active trails, not near food or cleaning products
- Insecticidal Dust Reaches Nests Inside Walls: gel bait cannot reach deep inside wall cavities and roof beams. Insecticidal dust injected directly into wall voids through small drill points is the only method that eliminates these embedded colonies.
- Residual Spray For a Long-Lasting Barrier: Unlike contact spray, which kills on contact, a residual insecticide applied along skirting boards and door thresholds keeps working for 4–8 weeks after application.
- Granular Bait Destroys Outdoor Colonies: Granular bait scattered around nest mounds is carried underground by workers and fed directly to the Fire ants and Argentine ants queens.
- Ants inside sealed food packaging: the infestation is advanced, and the colony is large enough to send multiple foraging trails
- Sealing Entry Points Stops Re-Infestation: No treatment lasts if ants can walk straight back. Fix leaking pipes and clear air-con drip trays. A dry, sealed home gives any new colony no reason to stay.
