This actually works

Works great to control ants.

It’s a similar formula to expensive ant baits (like Terro) and it works as effectively. It’s a borate poison that decimates insects but is not highly toxic to mammals. Let the ants spend a few days gathering the poison and they will take it to their nest to share. I use it in my vegetable garden to keep ants away (ants bring aphids into the garden). Using this has really helped keep them away.

When the product showed up at my house, the bottle was damaged and the contents of the bottle (which is a very sticky liquid) was all over the inside of the delivery package. I had to through it out.

This product is really good at attracting ants. The only problem is that the ants just keep eating it for over two weeks....

The key to success in getting rid of multiple sugar ant colonies is to keep putting ant bait out for weeks. My kitchen was invaded by multiple colonies, and each morning I would put out fresh bait onto a piece of tinfoil. The ants would swarm all over the bait, then disappear for a week. Then more ants would show up. This went on for weeks. But I kept putting out fresh bait daily, and now there are no more ants in my kitchen 6 weeks later. This bottle allows me to be proactive and put out fresh bait daily, every day of the year. This way, if ants ever show up again, they will head for this bait instead of swarming all over my kitchen.

The ants seem to LOVE this stuff!! They slurp it up willingly. Then day after day they keep coming back for more! Maybe our ants down here in SW Fla are more hardy, or perhaps there needs to be a stronger percentage of boric acid...I don't know which. I just know that I ended up having to use some ant spray I mixed up to at least try and slow them down. This is a good value compared to the mini ant cups that are sold everywhere, I just wish it had delivered more of a knockout punch!!

I like to put a bunch on aluminum foil where the ants have been and watch it get swarmed. But there's one important thing, the ants have eggs in different stages and you might think you've killed everything off and yet they come back.The fix to that is to keep out fresh bait for a month. You'll probably notice a second wave a week after you thought you killed everything.Also, do your best to place it where the ants are coming into the room so they don't explore other areas. You can even get natural ant killer spray and make a perimeter around it so they have nowhere to go but the bait and back to the hive.30 days minimum. Don't forget.
