Abstract

A bait station for the control of insects, especially roaches, that has a reservoir portion for holding a liquid bait-toxicant formulation which fits into a base structure. The base structure has around its circumference a ramped structure that defines a central well area. Rising from the ramped structure are a plurality of support walls which both support the reservoir portion and define access openings to the central well area. The bait-toxicant formulation is controllably released from the reservoir into the central well area.
