He advised against the bait trap system. The chemical injection method protects the entire house against termites with no maintenance. But, the bait trap system requires regular monitoring and retreatment as needed.

Massey came every 3 months to check the traps (initial provider for our new build) when we built the pool, they had to remove the traps, after completion reinstall. Seems like a lot more work than the once a year. Switching to Deans, who gave us the option of direct treatment or traps. If we don’t notify Massey to remove, it was hinted there would be a change, for lost traps.
