There is a lot of termite activity in the woods. I've had my house inspected for termites and there is no signs of any activity. Though my swimming pool a few years back had a bunch of tiny holes chewed thru the liner from what I was told was caused by termites. Should I place your bait stations in the rear of the back yard near the woods line. I have a stone wall that separates my lawn from the woods and was thinking of setting the bait stations along this stone wall. Just wondering what you would recommend? Before I replaced the pool liner I had the soil below the pool treated by an exterminator. They are the ones that inspected my house for termite activity Thank you
Termite baiting stations such as the Advance Termite Baiting Kits are designed only to protect structures and cannot be used farther than about 6 feet from a structure such as your home. Since termites are going to be found all over in a wooded area, especially, it would be neither desirable nor reasonable to try to control termites in a natural area. You can definitely use these stations as directed to protect your home or another structure from termite activity. You have also done the right thing in treating the soil before installing a new pool liner.
