(1) Monitoring of
				  termite bait system stations shall be used to detect the presence of
				  subterranean termites. Both baited and non-baited termite baiting system
				  stations shall be monitored according to the manufacturer's label. If the
				  manufacturer's label does not address monitoring of baited and non-baited
				  termite baiting system stations, they shall be monitored no less than once per
				  month during the entire length of the contract.

				  placed according to manufacturer's label. Where the manufacturer's label does
				  not address termite baiting system station placement, they shall be placed no
				  more than twenty (20) feet apart around the perimeter of the structure as
				  practicable. If bait system stations cannot be installed according to the
				  manufacturer's label or at a maximum of twenty (20) feet apart due to concrete
				  or other obstructions, stations may be placed outside of the obstructions so
				  long as the span between structure and station does not exceed twenty (20)
				  feet. If the span between structure and station exceeds twenty (20) feet, an
				  alternate method of treatment shall be utilized for that section of the
