Which rodent control method can also monitor insects?

• A. Exclusion
• B. Traps
• C. Glue Boards
• D. Baiting

Answer: (C)

Glue boards combine control with monitoring. They are sticky sheets placed where pest activity is seen, and they trap anything that walks across them. This makes them useful not just for catching rodents, but also for revealing which insects are present and how active they are in that space. The captured insects provide immediate, visible data you can use to gauge the level of insect activity and adjust management accordingly. Exclusion aims to keep pests out and doesn’t trap or reveal inside activity. Rodent traps and baiting focus on reducing rodent populations and don’t reliably provide insect presence data. So, glue boards uniquely offer the dual benefit of catching rodents and monitoring insects.
