I understand the importance of meat residues… the answer is: no residues.

However, it is pretty expensive cattle feed and hardly nutritious. Bored cattle in a yard would definitely investigate a Colony Killer Termite Bait on top of a TermiTrap but you might consider covering it with a heavy plant pot, or, if you have a termite bait on a post, I’m thinking you’d need to wrap it in gaffer tape, which of course makes it harder, though not impossible to check on. (You could slice the tape open and re-tape).

I hope this helps

Thank you for your comments, Mark. I gave a lot of thought to making the checking and the baiting of the Traps as easy as possible and I’m glad you are both knowledgeable and enabled!

Your observations re the active then inactive tubes is commendable and probably right, however they don’t always vacate them. Using just tubes to get them to altitude means they are not eating the tiber (it may be timber they don’t like or maybe preserved). If they were eating the timber as well as going height then they would be eating all year round. Anyway, you’ve done it!!!

Best wishes Ion
