Trelona Bait Stations Termite Control System

The new and advanced Trelona bait stations are everything a termite baiting system should be. Since the system’s launch in 2020, Pest-Ex has installed over 200 Trelona bait stations in Australian homes, and we are more than impressed with its performance. These Trelona bait stations offer reliable termite control for homes, preventing infestations and eliminating termite colonies effectively.

What sets Trelona apart from other baiting systems?

The Trelona bait stations are a significant improvement over older termite baiting systems. Unlike traditional systems that rely on timber bait, Trelona bait stations are pre-loaded with an active bait containing Novaluron, a chitin synthesis inhibitor that disrupts termites’ growth and reproduction. This ensures that termites feed on the bait, unknowingly consuming Novaluron, which results in colony elimination over time.


The Trelona bait stations work 24/7, intercepting termites immediately, and providing consistent feeding to termites whenever they access the bait station. This is faster and more efficient compared to older systems that required termites to locate the bait after it was added. By pre-loading the bait, the Trelona baiting system eliminates termites quickly and effectively.

The advanced bait matrix has proven to be irresistible to termites throughout Australia including Coptotermes and schedorhinotermes Australia’s most common home destroyers.

BASF the creators of termidor are the masterminds behind this unique system and have again created a world class product designed with safety for technicians and customers in mind and performance.

Trelona Baiting System: Active Ingredient

trelona-active-ingredient

The active ingredient in the Trelona bait stations is Novaluron, a chitin synthesis inhibitor. Novaluron prevents termites from growing and reproducing, eventually leading to the elimination of the entire colony. The Trelona bait stations contain clear cases with entry holes for termites to access the bait. Termites feed on the cellulose in the bait and ingest Novaluron, which leads to the colony’s collapse.

How is the Trelona Bait Station Used on a Home?

Pest-Ex has installed many Trelona bait stations around residential homes to control termite colonies in the ground and within homes. The bait stations are strategically placed around the perimeter of the property, tailored to the home’s design and construction. This ensures optimal termite interception and protection.

How Often Are Trelona Bait Stations Serviced?

Trelona bait stations are typically serviced every 2 months by Pest-Ex. While BASF recommends servicing every 2-6 months, we’ve observed that termites often consume the bait within 9 weeks during our trials on the Gold Coast and Brisbane. It’s important to ensure that termites always have a fresh supply of bait, so they continue feeding on the bait and passing it throughout the colony. This ensures successful colony elimination.

What is the Cost of Trelona Bait Stations for a Home?

All homes are different and have different perimeter sizing therefore it’s difficult to get an exact cost of termite treatment price without a free site visit. The average price guide for a trelona system for homes ranges from $2,000-$4,000 and includes a termite inspection of the home and servicing and bait replenishment as required.

Why Should Trelona Bait Stations Be Used by Professionals Only?

Trelona bait stations should only be installed and serviced by BASF-trained professionals. At Pest-Ex, our team is trained to handle complex termite control situations and ensure the precise installation of Trelona bait stations. We know exactly where core drilling may be required around the perimeter of the home for optimal protection.

By trusting Pest-Ex to install and maintain your Trelona bait stations, you’re ensuring the highest level of care and expertise to eliminate termites from your property.

This company actually investigates the problem instead of just spraying your place and leaving. Very HIGH knowledge and experience in what they...read more do. They took the time to investigate the cause, the source of the problem and elimnated it completely which included going through every cupboard, cracks hiding spots the lot. We had a cochroach problem in our apartment for 3 months and we had 4 different companies come out and NONE of them investigated they only sprayed. After we called PestEx, Mr. Phillips was very knowledgeable and experienced eliminating our problem entirely. We also use PestEx in our shop and both Mr Phillips and Marty are EXCELLENT in resolving and maintaining pest problems. HIGHLY RECOMMEND PEST EX. BEST I'VE SEEN IN QUEENSLAND.
