TERRO Liquid Ant Killer ll

I've used this on everything from big carpenter ants to little sugar ants. So far I am ant free everywhere I've used it. In some cases it takes a little while for the ants to go for the bait so some patience may be required.

You kind of want it to stay a little sticky as the ants are more interested in it when it’s wet. It does dry out after 4 or 5 days. We saw a remarkable reduction in the very small ants but it didn’t seem to work as well for larger ants. It is ABSOLUTELY NOT pet safe. It is a good value. A little goes a long way.

This bottle is a lifetime supply and it's magic! I only use single drops. The ants are attracted to it, they disappear and you never see them again.

Quick and easy. The ants love it. Then they don't.

Best stuff I've ever used!!!!!! I knew where the tiny ants were coming in so I put the bait there and within a few days they were scarce. Now that they are completely gone inside I've been treating the outside of my house with it and haven't seen any ants indoors. Once you set the bait out, don't kill them, let them eat the stuff up and the colony will die. I drip it straight onto the concrete outside. A bunch will collect to eat it then you won't see them. The bottle is big for the amount you actually use each time and my last bottle had lasted me over a year of treating my house and friends houses when they got invaded. It's very runny, syrupy, clear liquid that dries into a sticky goo. Liquid gold!!!!! Works every time!!

When I used this as directed the ants completely ignored the Terro. I tried mixing it with a little honey, banana, or orange sauce from orange chicken, and this also had zero success. In desperation I applied Terro to the floor of the room on top of the entry hole used by the ants. That got ants to eat it. Their numbers have been decreasing. The War of the Ants is underway and the winner is yet to be determined. I tried small plastic houses of ant bait of various brands. A Terro brand worked well but had been discontinued and is no longer available. I tried other brands with a small amount of success in battles but not for the overall war. So far I am not satisfied with any ant bait, but time will tell. Added later: Under specific circumstances this works very well, specifically all these: 1) little black ants that seek sweet, 2) you put this on bright colored thin material, not black and not thick, 3) you locate it in or adjacent to a main ant trail that already exists and you see, 4) you make plenty available. 5) Replace after 24 to 30 hours because the surface dries and it becomes ineffective. When fresh it is super sticky. After a day it skins over. When ants walk on top of it, it needs replacement . Note, that sometimes what looks like the main ant trail is not, the main trail is somewhere else. Until you interrupt the main trail the ants will quickly return if they stop. One advantage is you don't need to find the main nest, the ants will bring this poison to the nest. I also use Terro liquid traps, but these aren't as good because ants die inside these traps and so do not bring the poison back to the nest. I've also tried ant bait traps of other brands, but they don't work as often or as persistently. So I raised my rating from 3 stars to 4 stars, and I ordered another bottle. So far as I can tell I've killed off at least 3 ant nests with the first bottle and there's still some left.

This stuff is great. I have used the little Terro traps before but this is a clear liquid version that is great for squirting into doorway crevices, cracks or spaces along the foundation of the house, or any other tight place where you've seen ants. Like the other Terro products it is relatively safe to use if you have animals around. This is a nice option for outside areas.

The ultimate solution for ants! Every home should have this. I’ve been using it for years, and after putting a few drops on the floor, the ants are completely gone. I highly recommend it!
