Termitesin Marrakech
In Arabicالنمل الأبيض (الأرضة)Reticulitermes lucifugus
Subterranean termites attack timber from the inside and travel up through the ground: by the time the damage is visible, the beam is already largely hollow. Medina riads — old timber ceilings and doors in direct contact with the earth — are the most exposed properties in Marrakech.

How to recognise an infestation
- Mud tubes a few millimetres wide running up walls, plinths or pillars.
- Timber that sounds hollow when tapped although the surface looks intact.
- Paint or plaster blistering in lines, with no sign of damp.
- Discarded wings near windows in spring, after a swarm.
Why waiting costs more
Unlike other pests, termites attack the fabric of the building: roof timbers, beams, frames. The cost of treatment bears no comparison to rebuilding a roof structure, and the attack progresses silently for years.
Our treatment protocol
Structural survey
We sound the timber, trace the mud tubes and identify the contact points between the ground and the structure, where termites travel up.Perimeter soil barrier
A termiticide is injected into the soil around the foundations and beneath slabs, cutting the link between the underground colony and the building.Injection into the timber
Affected timbers are treated by pressure injection and surface application, reaching the internal galleries and protecting the sound sections.Monitoring
Monitoring stations around the perimeter plus verification visits, to catch renewed activity before it reaches the structure again.
