Estimating the term…
Systems and methods for controlling one or more types of pests include the use of one or more freestanding pesticidal baits positioned at a location below and/or adjacent to one or more foundation elements of a building structure. In one form, the pesticidal baits are formed by a compressed mixture of a pesticide and a bait material that is palatable to one or more types of pests. In another form however, the pesticidal baits are formed by an extruded mixture of a pesticide and a bait material that is palatable to one or more types of pests. In a further aspect of these forms, the bait material is palatable to one or more wood-destroying pest species such as termites. However, other embodiments, forms and applications are also envisioned.
