Product Description
This is a carton of 6 TermiteTraps and a carton of Termite Bait. Usually enough Traps for a suburban block up to 600 sqm. How many traps do you need? The more you have, the sooner or more likely you are to intercept foraging termites, but usually, set them in gardens about 3-8 metres apart. Look at each garden bed and think whether you need 2, 3 or 4 in it then add the total of beds.
The carton of Termite Bait contains 10 tubs of powder to which you add water before putting the tub into a Trap containing live, feeding termites. Multiple doses is normal; the bigger the colony, the more doses (tubs) required. The 10 tubs or feeders is enough to feed and kill most big, established colonies or a couple of smaller colonies. What you don’t use will keep for many years. If you have live and feeding termites in a building, you should begin feeding Bait to them before you place your TermiteTraps. (You shouldn’t risk digging a hole for a Trap and accidentally cut the main tunnel between where you are feeding them and their nest.)
Dig holes about 250 mm (10”) deep in your garden, stand a Trap upright, replace the soil and stamp down — they are at work! Look at them at least once a month over the next 10+ years. Termite control is a long-term job — just as well we made the monitoring so easy.
For bigger blocks, we recommend the Home Kit - Medium Block

Waiting to Trap
Posted by Michael Kelly, NSW on 21st Jul 2011
After having a couple of experiences with termites, I fortunately came across Termite Trap DIY, I have set the traps and await capture. At the moment nothing, it is cold so they are a bit slower, no news is good news. The system was very easy to install and understand. Reading other reviews it gives me peace of mind knowing that I have an early warning device when or if they come back for desert.

Totally convinced this works
Posted by Dr T Ladyman on 11th May 2011
We knew we had termites but didn't want to surround our house with chemicals - so gave termite traps a go. The termites found the trap - helped themselves to the growth inhibitor bait for 2 months and we managed to kill a massive nest that may have gone undetected if we randomly put poison in the ground. I was very skeptical until we saw results. I've now recommended this system to family and friends.

Trusting it will be effective
Posted by Lynn on 9th May 2011
For a start I have only given this product 3 stars because I don't yet know if it will work. We have never had termites but were paying fairly large sums for annual inspections. I went looking for an alternative (more economical) solution and found these Termite Traps on the internet and decided to give them a go. Delivery was prompt (as promised), installation was easy, regular inspection is a "breeze", and the email reminders to check the traps and the house perimeter is a great system. No termites have found the traps so I can only assume there are none present as has been the case up until now anyway. I keep the poison bait tubs dry and ready to go should the need arise. Thanks for the great service

What a cheap alternate
Posted by Kevin on 5th May 2011
I saw this article in one of our Courier Mail papers. I believe it is a cheaper option of treating termites, and you get to see if it works. I have active termites in my fence. If they take the bait, they should disappear and you can see the results. It is safe to use, so I am going to give it a go and order a kit. Spoke with my Brother, and he is going to do the same.
