Two termite species cost Malaysian homeowners more than every other pest combined: Coptotermes (subterranean) and Cryptotermes (dry-wood). Dawnplex installs proven non-repellent soil treatments, runs in-ground bait stations, and replaces compromised flooring sections with the colony already neutralised — never just the symptom.
The mistake most homeowners make is buying a uniform “termite treatment.” Termite work in Malaysia splits into three jobs — and they cost differently because they look different on day one.
Soil treatment laid before the concrete slab pour. This is the cheapest moment to stop termites in a Malaysian home.
Drill-and-inject soil barrier — the standard treatment when termites are already active or you want preventive cover on an existing house.
You already have mud tubes or swarming. We isolate the colony, dust it, then close the soil barrier so the next colony can’t walk in.
2-hour inspection — soil moisture, mud tubes, void cavities, sub-floor access. Photo log + drilling map signed off with you before quote.
10 mm holes every 30 cm around the slab perimeter. Dust-controlled drill collars to keep your house liveable through the day.
Termiticide injected to soil at label rate (typically 5 L/m). Holes patched flush with cement repair plug — colour-matched where exposed.
Re-inspection at day 14 and follow-up audits at month 6, 12, year 3 and year 6. Warranty paperwork emailed within 48 hours of Day 1.
Older repellent termiticides drove termites away from the soil barrier — meaning the colony lived to scout another route. Modern non-repellent actives (fipronil, chlorantraniliprole) are odour-free to the termite; workers walk through the treated zone, carry it back to the colony, and the entire population collapses over 60–90 days.
Dawnplex follows the Department of Agriculture protocol on every soil barrier — label dose, no above-label “for good measure” additions, and full chemical disclosure in your treatment certificate.

Most homeowners spray something on a mud tube and create a panicked colony that splits. Let a Dawnplex technician audit before any chemical touches your house — survey is free in Klang Valley.
