Sorry but I can’t really make out what you guys making. Is it a wall (or are you taking it down) or are you elevating your land area?

Have you also thought about termite control.

NSDS3: that’s the maid.

Israd, I’m elevating the yard. It was about a meter too low in the back there. Instead of filling the whole thing flat level with the house, I decided to make two levels. I’m building the wall to retain the upper level.

Do termites like to live under rocks?

That’s coming along very nicely. I appreciate your explanation to Israd, because I also couldn’t figure out what you were doing. Now it all makes sense. That soil is SO red! Have you begun a backyard compost area?

Thanks for the info. My friend is in the process of renovating his house and he mentioned that when you prepare land for constructing a house, you should put termite chemical (I dont know what they call it) into the soil. But this method is not eco-friendly. Alternatively, I’ve also heard of a termite bait that causes the worker termite not able to shed it’s skin. In the end, the whole community dies. By the way, my house has a very serious termite problem. I’ve had a Quran stored in an almari with all the pages eaten out, except for the outermost layer. The amazing this is, you would not know that it was gone unless you actually opened it. What was left was what looked like veins,, but the termites were gone.
