Advanced Termite Bait
One of the best ways to diminish and possibly eliminate a termite colony is with baiting. Termite baiting Salem homes means getting the greatest benefit from professionals. There are different types of bait stations for use, and utilizing them correctly is crucial. As a part of a larger termite extermination campaign, it can be an excellent way to severely weaken or destroy a colony. At The Killers we specialize in using a variety of methods to get the strongest results.
What is termite baiting?
Salem termite baiting involves placing bait stations in-structure and below ground. These are effective against subterranean termites, the Northwest’s most common variety. Bait stations come in different varieties, and we’ll make recommendations based on your infestation level. Stations are either baited with inspection cartridges/wood or bait treated with a toxicant.
- Wood/Inspection cartridge: These are checked regularly and can determine if termites are active in the area.
- Toxicant bait: Termites take the treated bait back to the colony. This poisons the colony from the inside.
Stations are useful for discouraging the rooting of termite colonies. When one hasn’t yet established, this method may deter it before it gets a hold.
Get professional termite baiting for the best results.
Our termite baiting process begins with a complete inspection. Termite baiting Salem homeowners find the most advantageous must be carried out by professionals. We know how to locate potential termite nests using on-site experience and training. Determining where termites are active allows us to place the bait stations where they will likely be found. This is absolutely necessary.
There is no substance that actively attracts termites. This makes bait station placement so important. Without correct placement and spacing near suspected active areas and beyond, the chance termites will locate the stations will be compromised. If they don’t identify the station as a food source, it won’t be effective.
