Much better to have found them than not to have found them. Are you still on schedule, Fb?

Oh yes, I'm glad the termites were found

They are indeed the same white ants that gobble up wood and leave it like dust And whilst I'm told they won't survive in this climate, I bet they'd have a good old munch before the winter killed them off.

Happily the fumigation is considered part of my relocation expenses - and therefore my employer foots the bill And because I had to put it all into storage with the removal company for 2 weeks before moving into the house, there is no delay for me

The fumigation starts tomorrow and will be complete (and everything aired) by Thursday. Two weeks tomorrow it will all be delivered to my new place

14 days (and counting) until I move in... and camp for a night.

Needless to say I'm impatient as hell and feel that the days are dragging unusually slowly

Hoorah!!

Got it in one WS

Hi fb.

Thank you for confirming that the termites were the the same creatures as white ants

Today is <onday the 1st of December 2008 I am now going to keep a daily diary of what I have to do and what has happened. After the mishap last week I certainly do not want another week like that. Hope I can ward any others off.
I intend to write about the experience......so wish me luck.

Good luck, Christiane What a great idea to write about your experience. It might not only clarify what happened for yourself, but help others understand. Good for you
