Details & Specifications

Kills a variety of common ants, including Carpenter, Argentine, Pharaoh, Pavement, Honey, Acrobat, Odorous House, Thief, Big-headed, Cornfield, and Field Ants. The active ingredient, Fipronil, works slowly, allowing the foraging ants to bring the bait back to the colony and feed the queen and larvae, resulting in a "domino effect" where infected ants die after being fed, groomed, or touched by the foragers. This slow-acting formula ensures complete colony elimination in as little as 3-5 days.

The thick gel bait formulation is effective even when applied to vertical surfaces, making it suitable for a wide range of application scenarios. Its slow-acting nature is a key advantage, as it allows the foraging ants to distribute the bait throughout the colony, leading to the demise of the entire nest rather than just the foragers.

The use of Fipronil as the active ingredient is a strategic choice, as it works slowly enough for the ants to transport the bait back to the colony, where it can be shared and distributed throughout the nest. This ensures that the queen, larvae, and other members of the colony are all exposed to the toxin, ultimately leading to the complete elimination of the entire ant population.

The fast-acting nature of this product, coupled with its effectiveness on a wide range of ant species, makes it a valuable tool for homeowners and pest control professionals alike. Whether dealing with a Carpenter Ant infestation, Argentine Ants, Pharaoh Ants, or any of the other common ant species listed, this bait can provide a comprehensive solution to the problem.

The versatility of the thick gel formulation, which can be applied to vertical surfaces, further enhances the product's utility, as it allows for targeted treatment of areas where ants are known to forage and nest. This ensures that the bait is accessible to the ants and increases the likelihood of successful colony elimination.

Overall, this ant bait represents a highly effective and efficient solution for controlling a wide range of ant species. Its slow-acting, Fipronil-based formula, combined with its fast-acting and versatile application capabilities, make it a valuable asset in the fight against these common household pests.
