BASF Termite Bait & Monitoring System Home Kit | 10 Stations, 6 Bait Cartridges & Access Tool

Overview

The BASF Advanced Termite Bait System Home Kit combines professional-grade monitoring with a practical DIY design. Widely used by pest control professionals, this 10-station setup is built for perimeter protection and ongoing surveillance around typical homes. The system emphasizes wood-to-soil contact through larger vertical slots, increasing the likelihood of termite interaction with the monitoring materials while preserving a discreet exterior footprint.

Key benefits at a glance

• Dual-action monitoring: Each station features a wood base and a Termite Inspection Cartridge with a cellulose matrix that termites naturally target, helping you monitor for signs of activity.
• Colony elimination option: When activity is detected, the inspection cartridge is swapped for bait cartridges to target entire colonies. The kit includes six bait cartridges for extended on-site presence.
• DIY-friendly setup: Install stations 10–20 feet apart around your home’s perimeter. For larger homes, more stations may be needed; a drilling auger is recommended for easier installations (not included).
• Active ingredient and bait longevity: Bait cartridges contain 0.5% Novaluron and now offer 33% more bait per cartridge for longer-lasting monitoring and potential control where activity is present.
• Professional-grade protection: A trusted choice for perimeter coverage and ongoing surveillance, designed to integrate with a homeowner’s maintenance routine.

Inside the kit

What you get: 10 pre-loaded termite monitoring stations, each with a wood base and a termite inspection cartridge; 6 Trelona Termite Bait Cartridges containing 0.5% Novaluron; and 1 Spider Access Tool for easy access to the stations.

Installation and usage tips

• Place stations 10–20 feet apart around the exterior perimeter of your home for broad coverage.
• Use a drilling auger (not included) to simplify installation, especially on hard-packed soil.
• Scale the setup for larger homes by increasing the number of stations to maintain consistent monitoring.
• Ensure stations remain accessible and avoid wiring or buried utilities during placement.

How it works

During monitoring, termites are drawn to the enticing cellulose matrix in the inspection cartridge. If activity is detected, replace the TIC with a bait cartridge to target the colony. The newer bait cartridges carry 33% more bait, providing sustained presence where activity persists.

Who should consider it

Homeowners seeking proactive termite monitoring, property managers overseeing multiple residences, or DIY enthusiasts looking for a professional-grade perimeter protection solution.
