1. Presence of Termite Activity in the Bait
The most important thing experts look for is whether termites have discovered and are feeding on the bait.
This includes checking for signs like mud tubes, bite marks, and live termites.
Early detection allows pest controllers to switch to toxic bait, which termites bring back to their colony.
2. Bait Consumption Level
Experts inspect how much of the bait has been eaten since the last visit.
If termites are actively feeding, it shows the system is intercepting the colony.
The consumed bait is then replenished or replaced to maintain continuous treatment.
3. Signs of Colony Elimination or Decline
Professionals track the change in termite activity over time.
Fewer termites or slower feeding can indicate that the colony is weakening or collapsing.
This helps determine when to continue baiting, switch to preventive mode, or remove inactive stations.
4. Environmental Conditions Around the Station
Moisture, plant growth, or human disturbance can affect station effectiveness.
Experts make sure the stations remain undisturbed, covered, and free from flooding, soil erosion, or debris.
Proper ground contact is key to attracting termites in the soil.
5. Structural Risks or Nearby Wood Sources
During monitoring, pest experts often check for wooden structures or debris near the bait stations.
Items like old logs, garden beds, or wooden fences may attract termites away from the bait.
They’ll advise homeowners on risk reduction and potential adjustments to bait placement.

A termite baiting system is only as good as its monitoring process. That’s why Pesco Pest Control offers scheduled inspections and expert intervention to ensure full colony elimination and long-term termite prevention.
