Pro Tips & Quick Tricks
For more reliable termite monitoring, place stations near areas where subterranean termites are likely to forage, such as locations with wood-to-soil contact or consistently moist soil. These stations are monitoring devices, not a complete treatment by themselves. When termite activity is detected, the inspection cartridge must be replaced with a compatible termite bait cartridge to begin baiting.
Product Information
Advance Termite Bait Stations
Advance Termite Bait Stations by BASF provide an in-ground monitoring solution designed to help detect subterranean termite activity around homes and commercial buildings. Installed in the soil around a structure, these stations create designated monitoring points where termite activity can be checked during routine inspections. They are an important part of a proactive termite management program, helping property owners and pest management professionals identify activity that might otherwise remain hidden underground.
A Practical Approach to Termite Monitoring
Subterranean termites typically forage through the soil in search of cellulose-based materials, often remaining out of sight until their activity reaches a structure. Advance stations use a wood monitoring base to attract foraging termites into a contained inspection point. This allows the station to be checked for signs of activity without relying solely on visible evidence of termites inside a building.
By establishing monitoring points around the perimeter, the system helps make termite inspections more systematic. Stations can be checked over time to determine where activity is occurring and whether additional attention is needed. Regular monitoring is particularly valuable because the absence of visible termite damage does not necessarily mean that termites are absent from the surrounding soil.
Monitoring Components and Baiting Capability
Each standard Advance Termite Bait Station includes a wood monitoring base and an inspection cartridge. These components are designed to help reveal termite activity during inspections. The standard station does not contain insecticidal bait, so it should not be mistaken for a ready-to-use termite-killing treatment.
When termite activity is detected, the inspection cartridge can be replaced with a compatible Advance termite bait cartridge. The baiting stage uses a separate product containing an active ingredient intended for termite control. This two-stage approach allows the system to be used for monitoring first, with baiting introduced when activity is found. Always use compatible components and follow the applicable bait product label and system instructions.
Advance Termite Bait Stations - Monitor Station (TBS)
Advance termite bait station provides maximum wood-to-soil contact due to its termite monitoring base, designed with easy-access wood slots to invite termites into the station. The slots allow the soil to penetrate the interior and create the ultimate termite-friendly environment. Termites then explore upward into the termite inspection cartridge, where they feed until the cartridge is replaced with the termite bait cartridge, providing ultra-low disturbance functionality for termites.
