When we get heavy rain the ground next to one side of my house can be saturated and some standing water for an hour or 2.
If you mean can the Advance Termite Bait System Kit be in standing water (heavy rains for an hour or 2), the answer is yes. It will not harm the plastic station. However, the wood inside can get moldy and would probably need to be replaced. If the stations are full of water or the wood has too much mold on it, termites will not want to enter the stations. Typically the wood needs to be replaced at least once a year, but in your case, you may need to do it twice a year. Depending on where you live the climate and the amount of rain, you may need to replace the wood base more often. If the wood bases become very soggy and moldy then you should replace them. You also need at least a couple of inches under the station so that water doesn’t sit in the station as much, so be sure to dig a little extra.
