We relate and discuss the application of a monitoring-baiting program with the IGR hexaflumuron to termite control in Bagnacavallo (Ravenna, Northern Italy), where a massive Reticulitermes urbis infestation existed in the old town.

The treatment succeeded in eliminating termites from Bagnacavallo old town, using a total of 63 g of hexaflumuron
