When using the Trelona Compressed Termite Bait, is the wood monitoring base needed underneath them?

Answer:

Yes, the wood is the attractant and food source for the termites so it is important the wood monitoring base be in the station for the system to work. Once activity has been detected in the Trelona Inspection Cartridges, remove the inspection cartridge only and replace with a Trelona Compressed Termite Bait Cartridge.  
 
The wood monitoring bases should be replaced once a year however, depending on where you live and the climate and amount of rain, you may need to replace the wood base more often.  If the wood bases become very soggy and moldy then you should replace them.
