Termite control is a critical aspect of maintaining a pest-free home and protecting your investment. At Goldie’s Pest Control, we utilize the Trelona ATBS (Advance Termite Bait System) for both our Goldie’s Protection Plan Plus and Goldie’s Gold Plan. This advanced baiting system offers effective, long-lasting protection against termites. In this blog post, we’ll explain how Trelona termite bait works, why it’s a superior choice for termite control, and how we incorporate it into our comprehensive pest management plans.

Understanding Trelona ATBS

‍

What is Trelona ATBS?

Trelona ATBS is an advanced termite baiting system designed to protect structures from termite infestations. It uses Trelona compressed termite bait cartridges, which are highly attractive to termites. Once termites feed on the bait, they share it with the colony, leading to its elimination.

‍

Key Features of Trelona ATBS

  • High Attractiveness: The bait is formulated to be highly attractive to termites, ensuring they consume it quickly.
  • Colony Elimination: Termites share the bait with their colony, leading to widespread elimination.
  • Long-Lasting Protection: The system provides continuous protection, with bait stations inspected and replenished regularly.
  • Eco-Friendly: Trelona ATBS minimizes environmental impact by targeting termites specifically, without affecting other insects or wildlife.

How We Use Trelona in Our Plans

Goldie’s Protection Plan Plus

Our Goldie’s Protection Plan Plus includes the installation and maintenance of Trelona ATBS to provide year-round protection against termites. Here’s how it works:

Installation

  1. Initial Inspection: We conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify termite activity and determine the best locations for bait stations.
  2. Station Placement: Bait stations are strategically placed around the perimeter of your home, focusing on areas where termite activity is likely or has been detected.
  3. Documentation: Each station is marked on a site diagram to ensure accurate placement and ease of future inspections.

Regular Inspections

  1. Scheduled Inspections: We inspect the bait stations at regular intervals, typically every 120 days, to ensure they remain effective.
  2. Activity Monitoring: During inspections, we check for signs of termite activity and feeding. If more than one-third of the bait in a cartridge has been consumed, we replace it.
  3. Maintenance: Stations are cleaned of debris, and any necessary adjustments to placement or additional stations are made based on ongoing monitoring results.

Goldie’s Gold Plan

Our Goldie’s Gold Plan offers enhanced protection with more frequent inspections and additional pest control services. The use of Trelona ATBS is a key component of this plan:

Enhanced Monitoring

  1. Frequent Inspections: In addition to the regular 120-day inspections, we conduct interim checks to ensure the bait stations are functioning optimally and there are no signs of new termite activity.
  2. Site Adjustments: Any changes to your property, such as new landscaping or construction, are documented and may prompt the relocation or addition of bait stations to maintain full protection.

‍

Comprehensive Pest Control

  1. Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Our Gold Plan incorporates IPM principles, combining Trelona ATBS with other eco-friendly pest control measures to address a broad range of pest issues.
  2. Customer Communication: We keep you informed about the status of your termite protection and any other pest concerns, ensuring you have peace of mind knowing your home is safeguarded.
