Home / Termites / Termite Monitoring & Baiting
There are a few methods of treating a termite infestation, some of which will be discussed below. The tactics that we will discuss here, at our disposal, are baiting systems and monitoring.
How it works
After a thorough inspection, your Radar Pest Control technician will go over each option with you and make sure that you understand how it all works.
We use Exterra, which is a chemical free system that was created to protect your home or business on a regular basis. It’s safe around your home, your kids, and your pets. These bait stations are placed around your property where termites are likely to travel.
An above-ground station after the colony has moved through the bait: this is what winning looks like.
This might be placing them in the ground or drilling through concrete, depending on the specifics of your property. The concept is to intercept the termites before they ever get close to the home.
If termites are already inside your home, above-ground stations are the preferred way to quickly get rid of the termites. Termite bait is placed in the stations and will help to eliminate termites in a quick manner. Once termites are gone, the above-ground stations are removed.
The mechanism
Inside one of our in-ground stations: live termites working the bait. From a Sunshine Coast job, not a stock library.
Termites are attracted to these stations and encounter the bait, which they take with them back to the colony.
The termites have regular contact with each other, spreading around the bait and effectively eliminating the entire termite colony.
Once the magic happens and the termites are gone, it’s important that that the monitoring continues into the future. There are surely other colonies in the area that would love to take a bite out of your house.
This is why we push a regular system of monitoring around your home. We’ll replace the interception points with fresh bait and make sure that new termites are not present.
