Claim:
1. A method of assembling a pest control device, the method comprising: inserting a sensor assembly through a proximal end of a cylindrical body to position the sensor assembly in an interior space of the cylindrical body, threading a closure onto the proximal end of the cylindrical body to create an airtight seal, inserting bait pellets through a distal end of the cylindrical body to at least partially fill the interior space around the sensor assembly, engaging a first moisture barrier with a seat of the cylindrical body positioned near the distal end, the first moisture barrier being formed from a termite palatable material, and threading a pest access arrangement into the distal end to capture the first moisture barrier between the seat and a partition of the pest access arrangement, the pest access arrangement including a plug formed from a termite palatable material that defines a second moisture barrier distal of the partition.
