The bait system does not kill termites, but attracts them, so the bait traps must be continually monitored. Without the monitoring, the termites will not be controlled. Also, I think the bait traps are owned by the termite company, so if you change your landscaping or move, the company can remove the bait traps. I recommend getting the entire house treated and getting a multi-year contract. If you cancel the contract, selling the house can be difficult if the inspection reveals a termite infestation. However, termites do not seem to be a significant problem in The Villages.

Who provides your service for $79?
