It is not airtight and if I didn't remember wrongly, it has holes. I bought it for bread storage but it doesn't work.

I purchased this and I actually live in Florida, and have had no ant issues! But it's definitely not air tight, so those little ants could definitely crawl their way in

Randy,I sometimes have the same ant problem but this bread box has never been infested. I have found it to be a great bread. bagel, muffin keeper.

We love ours...no problems with nsu's or gnats...we use a tarp for flooring especially in grassy areas to keep ant and other bug populations low...we have used it a lot for camping and tailgating in some dusty areas and have had no problems with the telescoping...my wife gave it 5 stars and that just doesn't happen!

In Georgia, I have applied Termidor in early April due to the amount of rain we have received this year. It has worked quite well for our Fire Ants even though they still spread because the rain has a tendency to drive them from their nests and make them seek other places, such as hollow trees and some man-made places such as car ports, etc.I will re-apply when the rain ceases for a week or so straight in a stretch.Great stuff, though. I wish you well.

I've had some problems, mainly ants, and resorted to a Trap-It ant trap (in red) which hold about 3/4 cup water, as the ant moat installed in the feeder is so small it dries out too quickly. There's times there's been wasps but - they get a drink and leave. Really, it may be that I got some of the solution on the outside or the like, but it's not a big problems. It's those ants.

Not sure cause i sent it back , while i was spraying i saw a big ant, and for 20 minutes i would spray him , he would swim around then start to run away , till finally he just swam then ran away, so it did not work for me.....

Hi Neal, I have had mine for over two years (purchase 1-28-2012) and it seems to be going strong and continues to work great. I keep mine in the basement where it is not too cold and not too hot. This is something I may scrap after five years if not within the given temperature limits. I am down to a single tube, so this will get the house through another year. I found a tube I had accidentally found in the garage through the winter and summer would become a little watery instead of gel form as if it was becoming separated, so keep it in a good location. Here is a link to Bayer's website for MSDS information: http://www.backedbybayer.com/pest-management/baits/maxforce-fc-professional-insect-control-ant-killer-bait-gel/msds Nothing is listed for a shelf life for that link, but there is a contact link that they may be able to answer most accurately.

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.

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.

In addition to keeping the moat filled with fresh water, remember to empty, thoroughly clean, and re-fill the feeder with fresh nectar according to the product instructions. I've found this does not allow the time for too many ant invasions. :-)

I'm confused by the gel. The gel that came with mine is soft and sticky. The ants just get stuck in it and die. I seem to remember having one of these before and the gel was solid. What I have is so soft that it's impossible to tunnel and my ants get stuck in the goop and die.

What I can tell you is that this is the best selling ant gel out there. We have an extremely successful feedback history for it also. There is no current recalls or issues with its performance according to the manufacturer

? I see only one product picture, light cardboard wrapper around single round red ant cup with top & bottom hooks. I rate it 5 stars, works very well. There are 3 very minor drawbacks: it's hot here in SW Okla so cups have to be refilled daily; there's hardly a day that passes without one or more dead bees in each ant cup; drowned (sp?) ants pile up in the bottom of the cups and it gets pretty cruddy so the cups have to be washed out at least once a week.

Visit the Seal Spray website and/or give them a call. They were super helpful.

It seals tightly, so I can't imagine that ants would likely find their way into it, but I know that those little tiny ants can be wily. But, it seems to seal really well. Also, the little terra cotta disc keeps the sugar from clumping up. It really works, too. I live in a high humidity area, so it's been tested. : )
