The present invention discloses devices and methods for a durable insect bait station. Such devices including a membrane for providing access to the bait station, the membrane adapted to be permeable to volatile components, the membrane configured to allow easy insect-probe penetration, and to be resistant to degradation caused by outdoor environmental conditions and/or harsh indoor environmental conditions. Preferably, the membrane has at least one inclusion. Preferably, the membrane has at least one perforation. Preferably, the device further includes a bait core for providing bait to the bait station, the bait core including a sugar-source bait, at least one oral and/or contact insect toxin, and a solvent, wherein the bait core is configured to be substantially in direct contact with the membrane. Most preferably, the bait core further includes an odorant. Most preferably, the bait core further includes a fibrous material as a support for the membrane. |
