Calculate how many Venus Termite Traps you need
Positioning Options for the Venus Termite Traps:
General Notes: Place Venus Termite Traps no further apart than 4.6m. Each trap protects a circular area of 5m allowing an overlap of protection areas prevents termites reaching the house.
Easiest positioning is to place traps in garden beds or lawns. However they can be inserted in paving. Each trap is same size as a house brick style paver. Traps suitable for placement in concrete are also available. Concrete drilling is required.
Overlap can vary from 20cm up to 2.5m to aid in easy installation.
