We relate and discuss the application of a monitoring-baiting program
with the IGR hexafl umuron to termite control in Bagnacavallo (Ravenna, Northern
Italy), where a massive Reticulitermes urbis infestation existed in the old town.
Termite control was carried out in different zones over a period of 15 years, starting
from the centre of the infested area and extending towards the peripheral areas.
The treatment succeeded in eliminating termites from Bagnacavallo old town, using
a total of 63 g of hexafl umuron
