Exterminex Termite Bait System: In-Ground Sleeve for Longer Timber Life and Faster Termite Interception
The Exterminex In-Ground (IG) Sleeve is a critical component of the Exterminex Termite Baiting System, designed to enhance station performance, improve bait longevity, and deliver consistent results across all soil and site conditions.
The IG Sleeve provides a protective interface between the soil environment and the timber bait matrix, maintaining optimal moisture balance while preventing premature decay.
This innovation ensures that your Exterminex bait station remains active and attractive to termites for extended periods, even in challenging environments such as clay, sandy, or high-moisture soils.
Three Core Functions of the Exterminex IG Sleeve
-
Extends Timber Bait Lifespan
The sleeve shields the timber from direct sand contact, roots, reducing microbial degradation and rot. This allows the bait to remain intact longer, ensuring continuous feeding activity and better data on colony progress. -
Prevents Soil Intrusion During the Settling Period
By stabilising the surrounding soil and preventing debris entry, the IG Sleeve keeps the station cavity open and accessible. This guarantees consistent termite access, even after heavy rain or soil movement. -
Acts as a Termite Attractant
The sleeve’s surface texture and micro-environment promote CO2 and moisture retention and temperature stability, both of which naturally attract termite foraging activity. This leads to faster interception and increased bait consumption.
Recommended for All Professional Installations
While the Exterminex IG Sleeve is available as a separate component, it is strongly recommended for every in-ground bait station installation to maximise long-term performance and consistency.
When used as part of a full Exterminex Termite Baiting System, the sleeve helps technicians achieve:
-
Faster termite discovery and feeding initiation
-
Improved bait stability and colony elimination rates
-
Reduced maintenance and station servicing frequency
Built for Professionals
Developed through years of field testing across Australia and Asia-Pacific, the Exterminex In-Ground Sleeve represents the next generation of professional termite management technology.
It combines scientific design with practical field performance, ensuring every installation delivers the reliability and durability expected by pest control professionals worldwide.
