When should a termite bait system be monitored for efficiency?

A termite bait system should be monitored for efficiency every 3 months to ensure optimal performance in controlling termite populations. This timeframe allows pest control professionals to assess the activity levels, check for the presence of termites, and determine whether the bait is being consumed effectively. Regular monitoring also helps in identifying any adjustments needed in bait placement or strategies for better efficacy. While monitoring too frequently may not yield significant changes and extended periods without inspection could allow termite populations to grow beyond control, the 3-month interval strikes a balance that ensures timely intervention if necessary and maintains effective termite management.
