ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and methods for monitoring and/or controlling pests, particularly termites. The apparatus employ one or more extractor means for selectively moving termite monitoring and/or termite baiting devices. Stations used for the monitoring or control of termites are comprised of a housing that contains combinations of stacked termite monitoring and/or termite baiting devices and one or more extractor means for selectively moving the monitoring and/or baiting devices. Another embodiment optionally includes a cup for holding the termite monitoring or termite baiting devices.
