Combat Indoor and Outdoor Ant Killing Gel, 27 Gram

Product Information

Ant killers should be handled directly as little as possible – they routinely contain chemicals that, while not always particularly harmful to people and pets, can cause allergies and irritation. Advion Ant Bait Gel is also very light in color, making it ideal for placements on lighter surfaces where darker baits would be noticeable. This powdered insecticide is very easy to use, coming in a bottle with small holes in the top – simply shake it out like talcum powder. It can be dusted along doorframes and windowsills, and any other crevices through which ants are gaining access to your home. I used the Home Defence Ant Stop! Bait Station in my kitchen, positioning two bait stations at two different entry/exit points that I’d seen ants use.

Maxforce FC Killer Ant Gel Bait is a carbohydrate-rich ant gel bait that capitalizes on a process called trophallaxis whereby ants consume the bait and then feed it to other members of their colony, creating a domino effect towards total colony elimination. Target Ant Species: Acrobat Ants, Argentine Ants, Big Headed Ants, Cornfield Ants, Field Ants, Honey Ants, Odorous House Ants, Pavement Ants, Pharaoh Ants, Thief Ants.Sweet vs. grease-eating ants: According to Wang, “Ants are omnivorous. Some may switch food preferences during different seasons.” Some species may be more likely to feed on sweet, protein or lipid materials, but most common urban ants eat both types of food. So if you find one type of bait is not working, it could be because it only contains one type of food source that the ants are not currently attracted to. Try a different type of bait and see if you have better results.
