This product is for outdoor use only. If ants are present indoors, we recommend using our TERRO T300-2 2-Pack Liquid Ant BaitsOnce the ants have been eliminated indoors, this product can be used outdoors to kill other ants before they find their way in.

I just opened the package and then drew back the cover of the little square so that it was a little bit exposed. Not even a quarter of an inch, just a tiny bit. I set it out by the back door. The other ones I set around the house. It worked, the ants were drawn to them and then died. I picked them up (full of dead ants).

Use full strength. Just put in an empty plastic spray bottle. It kills the ants on contact but put along trail areas even if you don't see any ants. If it's inside, you may want to wipe off some of the excess after about 5 minutes.

I don't know the answer, but my gut would tell me to use the one that sprays the furthest distance - toward nightfall when it is cooler, so most of the group is inside the nest and less active. You might want to look at this reference and see if this brand has a stunning agent to prevent them from coming out and stinging before you can take cover! Also take care not to crush any as they release alarm pheromones that bring the rest of the colony to their rescue. http://www.wvu.edu/~exten/infores/pubs/pest/hpm7002.pdf I would also try to figure out what attracted them there in the first place - spilled drink, etc. to prevent future infestations!

Put in cabinets , or within the sofa , necessarily not near the heater because the heat will melt the gel bait an make it useless. One thing I love about the gel bait is that when the "roaches" eat the bait they take it back to their colony and infect everyone else. After that they don't die in hidden places they tend to come out in the open and just die anywhere in the kitchen. From my experience that's what happened to me I come home and they are all just laying dead on the kitchen floor. Also put in places where you won't mop the floor. This product is highly effective and can last up to 1 - 2 years without reusing it.

I used it in my kitchen under the lower cupboards. You obviously wouldn't want to place it in or on anything that you will eat or eat off of. It is in granual form, almost like breading crumbs, not a powder, so there is little concern of it becoming airborne. We just sold the house but we lived in a 200 year old log home And used this to rid it of carpenter ants. Never seen them again after the 1st application. Worked very well for us.

Some question. Where are you putting it? They went crazy for it when i put it out! You have to put it where the ants are coming out of and i doubt it will work if you are putting it outside. Your question comes with many other questions. For me, it was super effective because i followed the directions

I'd mix it at least double strength and make sure you spray when it is dry. Rain within a day or two makes huge difference. Also, you can try spraying inside but don't breathe it in and ventilate the rooms well. Once it's dry its fine. If you're problem is termites or carpenter ants they could be coming back from a neighbor's house and if you spray regularly outside any that get in will die in 48-72 hours. If its a current house infestation it may take a couple thorough treatments to knock out the nest. Good luck, try not to get discouraged - my dad owns a pest control company and this is the most powerful stuff they use. I'd mix it at least double strength and make sure you spray when it is dry.

I suggest leaving and doing the whole house.Even if you could be sure that the chemical did not get to the rest of the house it is not a good plan... The insects will simply move to fresh air and then you have the problem in the rest of the house.

It's possible, this poison, dries them out from the inside. If the ants eat it or get it on them, it should kill them. If you spread it around their nest that should help but keep it away from animals and children. I spread it in the backs of cupboards and underneath drawers.

Only wood destroying ants in wall void. You need to read label on application of product. We use it for wall voids and it works very well.

Did you clip the end of the plastic container where the instructions indicate it should be cut? Did you place it close to a known ant trail? If you did those things, then ants should be visiting the container and taking poison home to the queen and her pupa...which will severely reduce ant numbers near your home. It works very well so long as the liquid is not spilled out, and so long as the container is in a sheltered area where rain cannot get to it. I hope this helps. :-)

I had ants marching from behind a kitchen cabinet. They were heading in two different directions. I located where they were coming out from behind the cabinet. I ran a bead of Terro so they could not come out without walking thru it. The ants walked thru it, and about 2 hours later they were all over the wall. The next day they were all gone. Have not seen another one in over 43 months.

I'd say it's very effective indoors. I had an indoor ant problem a few months ago. The ants are completely gone. I only used two of those in my kitchen and there were trails of ants to them for 3 or 4 days and then dead ants all over my floor in the kitchen and even downstairs in the bathroom for several days. Since then, around 2 months ago, I have not seen even a single ant in my house! No sprays ever killed them all, this killed the colony!

Mine was a granite counter. It had a little sticky debris surrounding the plastic trap. I'm guessing this was what the ants took with them as they left the trap. I just used the normal granite cleaner and some Sprayway, which is a foam glass cleaner.

I had the same problem, but I left it alone and after a couple of days the ants were gone. I wrote a negative review based on first impression, and I feel bad about that. Good luck.

You can put this anywhere, just DON'T pour it out on the floor! It's designed for ants to go into the trap and get the food. It is very sticky and hard to remove if it spills out of the trap. Just be careful putting it on carpet so none of it spills on to it. You will have a hard time removing it if you do spill it.
