The stakes are designed for quick installation around foundations, decks and other termite-prone microclimates. Each stake includes a pop-up indicator that alerts you to termite presence and a treated interior that stops foraging termites when encountered. The kit also contains locator shields, an instruction booklet and a digging tool so you can begin monitoring immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do the stakes detect termite activity?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stakes have an internal pop-up indicator that becomes visible when termites are actively feeding inside the unit. Regular visual checks let you know where termites are foraging before they reach the structure.

While the stakes reduce foraging termite numbers encountered at the point of contact, they are not a guaranteed whole-structure treatment for large or established infestations. For active or widespread infestations, pair monitoring with professional services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-action design: detect and treat in one unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBest used as perimeter protection and early intervention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplace stakes annually to maintain effectiveness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I install and position the 15-stake kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is quick and requires minimal tools: use the included digging tool to set stakes in soil 2–3 feet from the building and no more than 10 feet apart along the perimeter.
