No, the Advance Termite Bait Stations are used to primarily to detect and treat for termites before they reach the home. These stations contain an inspection cartridge and wood monitoring base. When active termites are found in the inspection cartridge, you would remove the inspection cartridge and replace with a Trelona Compressed Bait Cartridge.Once termites have reached the home, termite bait systems will not be effective to treat the termite colony. Please view our How to Use the Advanced Termite Bait System video for a quick tutorial on how to use the bait stations. The most effective treatment for Subterranean Termites is by using Taurus SC as trench treatment around the exterior perimeter foundation of the home. The barrier treatment will eradicate a termite colony within 90 days and last for 10 years in the soil against future termites. Please view our How to Get Rid of Subterranean Termite Guide for step by step instructions on how to do this process.
