What pest control method uses bait systems?

The method that employs bait systems for pest control is known as baiting. This technique is particularly effective because it uses attractive substances designed to lure pests. Once the target pests consume the bait, it can lead to their control or elimination. Baiting can be especially useful for handling specific infestations such as rodents or certain insects, as it allows for targeted intervention.

In contrast, trapping generally involves capturing pests using devices without the use of ingestible substances. Spraying utilizes pesticide solutions to directly kill pests on contact rather than offering them a bait to consume. Fumigation is a much broader and more intensive approach, where gaseous pesticides are released to eliminate pests in an enclosed area. Each of these methods has its applications, but baiting specifically leverages the appeal of bait to attract and manage pest populations effectively.
