To enhance the efficiency of glue traps in dusty environments, what should you do?

Placing glue traps in rodent bait stations can significantly enhance their efficiency in dusty environments. This method helps to protect the traps from excess dust and debris that could interfere with their adhesive properties. In dusty conditions, particles can settle on the traps and hinder their ability to capture rodents effectively. Rodent bait stations provide a controlled space where the traps can remain clean and functional, maximizing their effectiveness in capturing pests.

While other strategies may seem reasonable, such as keeping traps in the open air for better airflow or using them only indoors, those options do not address the specific issue of maintaining the traps' adhesive quality in a dusty environment. Covering the traps with plastic could reduce their visibility and may hinder their functionality, as glue traps are designed to be exposed to capture rodents effectively. Thus, using bait stations not only shelters the traps but also keeps them more appealing and usable for rodent capture.
