Description

Ant bait offers slow but effective pest control. Bait stations are filled with poisonous ant bait (usually disguised amongst high-sugar substances).

Whether you are a seasoned pest professional or an aspiring do-it-yourself pest controller, dealing with ants can be ever-challenging. Fortunately, proper use of ant gel baits can simplify the ant control process. It is important to note that not all ant gel bait products work equally well for all ant species, and some ants respond best to a very specific treatment regimen incorporating certain specific products. Professor Pest particularly recommends Optigard for newly introduced or established interior concentrations of Ghost Ants or Odorous House Ants, and is best utilized as thin strip placements on inaccessible vertical or horizontal surfaces in direct proximity to ant harborage, away from direct sunlight. Like other gel baits, exposure to high temperatures has a tendency to liquify the bait, making it runnier and more difficult to effectively apply. The bait can be applied using applicator gun, you can add bait stations above to keep bait protected from weather, animals etc. The active ingredient in the gel, fipronil, is one of the insecticides that work the fastest and can be used to kill all the ants in a few hours. Fipronil, like bifenthrin, kills insects by interfering with their central nervous systems. However, it's important to use it only in areas that are out of reach of children and pets. In my case, I wasn’t sure where the nest was; however, there were a few places where the ant activity was more prolific, so I just poured a little pile of the granules in each of these places.

Product Details

Ants make for small but unwelcome houseguests, trailing into kitchens and bathrooms in search of food and moisture during spring and summer. There are hundreds of species, and most are completely harmless, if a little smelly. “In all of the country, the most common house-invading ant is the odorous house ant,” says Dr. Jody Gangloff-Kaufmann of Cornell University’s New York State Integrated Pest Management Program. “And it is odorous — they’re pungent if you crush them.” These stations attract ants, enticing them with bait, and then transfer an ant-killer product onto them. The worker ants take this to the nest and it slowly kills the entire colony. Do not use bait in the same areas as residual repellent sprays or where there may be residue from harsh cleaning products. For absolute peace of mind, we recommend a blend of bait stations and powders or sprays, just to make absolutely sure that you get every last ant, egg, larvae and pupae in one fell swoop, saving you having to repeat the process in the not too distant future. Ants are lured to the granules because of their food-like odor and are killed after returning with the granules to the colony. According to the manufacturer, a single application can eliminate carpenter ants, fire ants, and over 20 other ant species for up to three months. A 24-ounce container of the bait covers 1,080 linear feet, which should be enough to cover the perimeter of an average-sized home six times.

Apply as many placements as possible to active trails or foraging areas without disrupting the natural behavior of the ants. Carpenter ants are most often found in forests, on logs and fallen trees. They tend to build their nests in these pieces of wood, excavating tunnels to live in.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.

This ant product: Perhaps the most despised of the ant species in the UK is the fire ant. Red fire ants are distinctive to look at, and known to sting. Advion Ant Bait Gel is also very light in color, making it ideal for placements on lighter surfaces where darker baits would be noticeable. Professor Pest recommends Maxforce FC when the specific ant species is known to be one of the specific species identified on the label, other than Big-Headed Ants. For Big Headed Ants, Professor Pest recommends a granular bait product such as Maxforce Complete. Research and experience confirm that the gel bait’s carbohydrate-based formulation is particularly attractive to ants.

It's recommended to place the baits on horizontal surfaces touching corners and walls. According to the brand, you can expect a reduction of ants within days, and the baits will work for up to three months, after that they should be replaced. The following tips will help you find the best ant killer to combat ant infestations around your property: The Different Types of Ant Killer Today's pest control products contain various natural ingredients that smell good while controlling ants. Most rely on botanical oils, which adhere to ants' exoskeletons and prevent their ability to perform gas exchange, essentially suffocating them. For this reason, they work best when applied directly to the ant. The residue can act as a repellent, as most insects are not fans of strong-smelling herbal oils.
