Do you know how long this will take to kill an ant colony?

Jennifer, It will vary from species to species but in general, 4-7 days for an average nests. Now if the nest is unusually large or networked with lots of satellite colonies, it could take 1-2 weeks. Cheers, Jonathan Customer Care U-Spray Bugspray

I'm glad you asked this question. I thought it would, but I had never tried it on ants. I learned something new when I checked the other 4 answers. I'm sorry I couldn't help you, but I'm glad you helped me. Thanx! Tim Drain.

The ant distributors say one to three months. Ours lasted at least seven weeks, but I bought twice the amount of ants. I wouldn't suggest that because they dug too fast. Stick with the recommended thirty ants and they'll probably last longer.

I think it can be applied anytime. If used properly, it supposedly lasts 5 years. I applied it mid summer when I saw the ants and it stopped them within a day.

yes it does kill carpenter ants. I used it for termites and it is a terrific product. The ants will carry the foam backto the nest where it will kill all that come in contact with it.

Carpenter ants are a pain!. I use a sugar and borax mixture to kill the whole lot of them works better than anything else I've tried.good luck!

Sure you can. Just sprinkle a little on top of the ant hill and in 2 or 3 days they just disappear. Work like a charm.

the information that comes with the bottle has instructions for this. DO NOT APPLY this chemical as it comes from the manufacturer, it is too concentrated. If I remember correctly for ant hills you make a 0.12 or 0.06 % solution and "inject" a lot of it directly into the colony or hill and then use a 0.03% solution to spray the area around the hill to kill all remaining ants that were out working.

I had to spray it twice one week apart. Then the Ants are gone for months now. I used it to spray outside around the house.

YES, it won't kill them fast, but in a week or two, all of them will be dead throughout the nests as thy spread it to one another.

I have been using it as a barrier. It stops the ant I have been using it on. I do not think it kills instantly, I think the ants need to take it back to the nest on their bodies. A professional told me to spray the foundation and up behind the siding.

Yes. If the DE comes in contact with an ant then it will eventually kill it.

The label does not specifically state the it kills Yellow jackets. It does say this: Treat bee, wasp and hornet nests late in the daywhen most insects will be present. Allow 2-3 days for the colony to die and repeat after 21 days, if necessary.

They claim 1-3 months, mine lasted more about 3 months...Once they started dying the ants would bury the dead in the corner or bring them up to the top! Pretty cool!

Not sure what type off ants you have.I have successfully used the product on carpenter ants, sugar ants, black ants.seems to kill most 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.
