Spectracide Terminate Termite Detection & Killing Stakes, Kills Foraging Termites, Detects Termite Activity, 15 Count

Works great, I do not need to pay for companies that quoted me 1500$ for termite treatments, I can install this kit myself and get testaments myself

We have a house plus other out buildings that all have wooden entryways. We bought 2 boxes of these little wonders, based on not the perimeter measurements, but about 10' more on each side. The screw that comes with the install kit worked well in all the different soil types around our property (sandy to clay)! With all the rain we've had (flooding), the units still seem to be working to bait the termites. In pulling to check them, several are chewed but also cloudy from being very wet. Several of them have "popped" during the first month. They seem to all be working to attract termites and take the bait back home. Dead wood all around may keep us buying these for some time. However, compared to the cost of a professional company installing very similar bait stations and coming out to check on them each month, these are a great deal! No issue with the dog digging them up (after his initial interest). Mud covering them doesn't seem to decrease their effectiveness. Suggestion: if you are having termite issues, buy more than you need for the initial install. We will be putting in about 6 new stations in the first month, and buying a new supply to be ready for replacing others showing great activity in month two!

Works well. Dabbed me money from professionals

Great product and great service!!!

This is my second box of these. I use them around a mower shed in Louisiana where termites are a real issue. Very visible when the bugs eat the poison and it's easy to put another in the same hole or use the included drill to make a new hole. I'll keep buying them.

I purchased three boxes (a total of 45 stakes). Too early to determine if they do the job. I installed these for peace of mind as a preventative measure. I’ve never had any termite issues in the past. I installed all 45 stakes. It was easy and simple to do. I used the little auger tool provided along with my battery powered hand drill. Works great. My only complaint is that out of the 45 stakes, 2 immediately malfunctioned when within 48 hours the red signal rod popped up. It definitely isn’t because of any termite or ant activity or because of excess moisture, etc. I pulled the stakes and they look as new and pristine as when they came out of the box. I called customer support and was told I’d have to remove a box full of stakes (15) of them and return the whole box in order to receive a replacement for the 2 malfunctioning stakes. It just wasn’t worth the effort to remove that many stakes. I would have thought they’d let me return just the 2. They would have easily concurred that it wasn’t and activity issue. I’ll continue to recommend this product as long as I don’t have more malfunctioning stakes.

easy to use.. put the auger in a brushless drill for making the holes in the dirt..

This was a perfect solution for me. My pet control company wanted to do the same thing for much more money. I discussed with them to come out and test for termites and if there were any then we will discuss what needs to be done. That didn't fly so with the installation (simple) of these it proved I didn't have any termites and therefore didn't need to do anything more.
