Fire ant mounds were tested using this product with a 95% mortality rate. We are currently conducting more tests to add the word fire to the label/packaging.

Have not seen the traps attract anything but "normal" flies. Once you it get the trap filled with flies, however you may also find ants scavenging the dead flies. Fireflies are a completely different family of insects, so they should be fine.

I am sorry I cannot give you an absolute answer, I have only used it on fire ants, but I will try it on other ants and let you know!

No, says the pest control company that recommended this to me. This products works. Put a line in an ant path and they go after it. Used this for years.

While not an expert on ants, I do believe (based on the pictures) that I have some carpenter ants at my cabin. This Terro Ant Killer has greatly reduced my ant problem with all ants. There are still a few but nothing like before. For the price, it's definitely worth trying. I've got to order some more for my mother who has an infestation of thousands of small ants in her house. Wish I could answer your question with 100% certainty. I would, however, be surprised if it didn't work on carpenter ants. Terro has a website where they will answer any questions or concerns that you might have. http://www.terro.com/guide-ants.php

Yes... It works on Fire Blight! Been using this stuff for over 4 years. Great organic spray.

I rather doubt it, for it does not work on ants. I don't think insects and Arachnida are susceptible to high frequencies.

Yes, but there is an Advion fire ant bait specifically for use outdoors for fire ants. To quote Dupont's literature; ""DuPont ADVION ant gel is specifically formulated to be attractive to all major pest species of ants such as Acrobat, Argentine, Big-headed, Carpenter, Cornfield, Crazy, Field, Ghost, Harvester*, Honey, Little black, Odorous house, Pavement, Pharaoh*, Pyramid, Red Imported Fire Ant*, Rover, Thief, and White-footed. ADVION ant gel contains the active ingredient, indoxacarb, a non-repellent insecticide. Use of ADVION ant gel will help eliminate ants within days of applying the gel according to the use directions. *ADVION ant gel is effective at killing Pharoah ants, foraging red imported fire ants and harvester ants. For complete control of outdoor nests of these species, use additional treatments labeled for outdoor nest control of these species.""

When I lived in Florida I tried it with no luck. For the fire ants I used diazinon. The diazinon had to be repeatedly treated to control the population of fire ants.

Don't Know how effective it is with Fire Ant critters. We don't have them in Nevada where I live but Terro is the best for those we do have.

Fire Ants cannot be controlled with liquid insecticides. I tried for years. I now have them under control using AMDRO Fire Ant bait that is labled to kill the queen. It comes in a black 15 pound bag available at Lowe's. Sprinkle two tablespoons around each nest, or, if it is a small yard use as the lable directs. It takes a week or 10 days to kill the nest AND QUEEN. It must be slow kill to get the queen, for otherwise the nest's queens will just move over and begin other nests. Workers only live 34 days anyway. To kill fleas, you must both kill the active fleas and the flea larvae. Many insecticides will kill the adult fleas, but the larvae take a special insecticide like Precor. Just killing the adults will not solve the problem, for the larvae hatch to begin the cycle over again.

It works great on fire ants, when you top dress the ant mound. As for being garden-safe, if you are growing vegetables in the garden, be careful to not put it on the vegetable plants themselves. I am pretty sure it would not be good for you, and might leave residual on your vegetables. If you are growing a flowering garden, it has not seemed to damage any plants I put it near.

It is supposed to kill an ant mound when you release the CO2 capsule into the mound . I used several of the canisters in my garden, but did not get rid of fire ants. It might work on other types of ants.

No. This product is meant to be used outdoors. Fire Ants do not normally move inside. Ants found in homes are usually much less hurtful than fire ants. They can be controlled by the product offered in big box stores in tiny bottles. Pest control in tiny brown bottles. They are really very inexpensive.

This was used to kill fire ants in the mound. I believe the extra step was to use this a second time. I did not do this because I felt the item was too costly.
