This publication studies three monitoring systems and eorts to eliminate termitesat San Cristobal and El Morro o the San Juan National Historical Site in Puerto Rico.Populations o
Coptotermes havilandi 
and
Heterotermes
sp. were detected andquantied using underground monitoring stations, aboveground monitoring stationsand an acoustic emission detector reading.This study tests hexafumuron baits such as those used to eliminate termite populationsin previous NCPTT-sponsored research on Liberty Island at the Statue o Liberty NationalMonument. This study evaluates these baiting systems over a much wider area.
