What is Termite Baiting?

Termite baiting is the practice of laying out insecticide-loaded traps or bait stations for termites to come in contact with and spread to the rest of their colony. Termite baiting is widely considered one of the most reliable treatment options for termite control and prevention. Termite baiting works in the following ways as a leading termite control option:

1. Bait stations are installed in the ground around your home. It begins working immediately to destroy any active colonies.
2. The active ingredient in bait works to prevent termites from maturing. The active ingredient causes termites to be unable to molt, which leads to their death.
3. Ongoing monitoring by a Hometown Pest Control team member will ensure the Termite baiting system continues to work effectively.

Termite baiting works well and is our preferred treatment method, but in certain situations, we also recommend a chemical barrier solution to go with it.  Termite Spraying is a termite control and prevention solution applied around the exterior of your home. Since termites don’t always come in contact with bait stations, we offer this as another option.

1. Whenever a termite ingests or touches the treatment, it becomes a carrier, transferring it to other termites it contacts.
2. These termites will then become secondary carriers, behaving normally while they transfer the treatment to other termites they contact, spreading it like a virus throughout the colony.
3. Termites will come in contact with the solution and transfer it to other termites eliminating the entire colony
