ABSTRACT:
A system for termite detection and control is provided by a subterranean bait station having a perforated outer housing permanently implanted in the terrain below ground level, and a perforated cartridge removably received within the housing. In one aspect of the invention, first and second removable cartridges each include partitions for dividing the total volume of bait material in each of the cartridges into several different sections. In a further aspect of the invention, the openings in the housing and in the first and second removable bait cartridges are dimensioned and configured to exclude the passage therethrough of certain preselected insects. In a still further embodiment of the invention, guides are provided for guiding termite travel in a direction towards the bait cartridge. The guides can include an element for reversing the direction of travel of termites moving away from the bait back towards the bait.
