    Not worth it

    Not spill proof at all

    I threw these away immediately after I opened one so I can’t say anything about the effectiveness but they are not spill proof at all. There is small amounts of loose liquid that can spill out of the huge vents on the side. The white part inside is like a wet sponge. Obviously most of the liquid is in the sponge but it still leaks a little and it would be dangerous for a child or pet to be playing with it. I walked around with it and it dripped all over the floor. I can only imagine how much you can get out by shaking it.

    Ants cant get in

    Literally put the trap in a pile of ants and they couldn’t figure how to get in the trap. Left it overnight and nothing.
    1 reply from stem Team team - 3 months ago
    We're sorry to hear that STEM Liquid Ant Baits didn’t keep those pesky ants away. Once the activation film is peeled and the baits are placed near areas of high activity, we expect them to start working quickly. Since that wasn’t your experience, we’d love the chance to learn more and help out. Feel free to give us a call at 877-869-7546 (weekdays, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CT) and mention reference number: 22915706.

    SUGAR ANTS

    Within 12hrs no ants. Put the trap near their path (in spare bathroom that has an exterior wall). In a few hrs there was A LOT of ant activity near the trap, A LOT. A few hours later nothing. Not a single any in sight. Its now 48hrs after and still no ants.

    Worse than not working!!

    The ants went away for 1-2 days, then came back twice as bad! I bought to be more environmentally friendly but soooo frustrated because twice as a expensive as raid traps, which always worked!
    1 reply from stem Team team - 3 months ago
    Thank you for letting us know. Typically once the ants locate the bait, more may show up to help carry the solution back to the colony where it will kill the ants, including the queen. Complete elimination can take up to 10 days. That said, your satisfaction is important to us so we'd like to chat further.

    Easy, odorless, effective!

    Odorless and works well! I was finding an ant here and there in my kitchen and decided to buy these traps. I put one next to my kitchen trash can and within 5 hours, the trap was filled with ants to my surprise since I never saw more than one or two maybe once a week. 12 hours after putting the trap out, the ants are gone. It’s been 2 days and they haven’t come back. Will be putting more of these around!

    The ants ignore it. Going to have to buy a different ant bait.
    1 reply from stem Team team - 3 months ago
    We're sorry to hear the ants were ignoring these baits. It's important to ensure this is the only food source for the ants so they locate it and begin carrying it back to the colony. It takes up to 10 days to completely eliminate the colony as the ants begin to feed off the solution. We'd like to chat further and make this right.

    10/10 recomend

    I somehow got a crazy ant infestation within the span of 2 days. My kitchen was COVERED. I was disgusted and needed them gone ASAP. These traps had the best reviews so I got them. I put all 4 traps down last night. They didn’t go near it at first but awhile after I went to check and they were going in and out of them. I have not seen one ant at all today, thank God! I would 10/10 recommend these!

    One trap worked in 24 hours

    I have been trying to find an effective way to eliminate or significantly reduce the over abundance of smaller “sugar” or “pavement” ants this season. Several other low toxic pet friendly methods have not been working. The ants change the trail or move the nest outdoor by a few feet. We had a pretty busy steady stream of busy ants the past day or two so I gave the STEM trap a try. We had used another not so pet friendly similar trap last year which was not effective at all. The ants are usually after water, protein or sugar. They have been zeroing in on any crumb of food our kitties leave behind. I rotate and clean their bowls and mat throughout the day so there not an exactly a big bowl or kibble or wet food sitting around. Yesterday the ants were swarming in as our cats were trying to have thier last kibble feeding for the day. I figured the ants might still prefer the food protein over the trap. I grabbed a low wide yogurt container then made two small edge holes and taped it closed with the trap, and covered kibble. I also placed it where the ant trail established was the strongest. Hope fully I will not need the other 3 traps right away but one did the trick with the added protein enclosed with the trap.

    Empty Box

    Can’t tell if I even like this product because I got an empty box. I couldn’t believe it when I opened the box, but there were no baits at all inside the package. Paid almost $8 for an empty box. Hopefully Target will believe me and not think I used them and give me a refund.

    Ants don't care

    Ants are indifferent to it. I put it right in their path and watched for a while. Climbed over and around but they never went in for the 'bait'.

    Thanks for reaching out! I'm sorry to hear this was your experience. STEM Liquid Ant Baits are designed to kill the queen and colony where they breed. If you haven't done so already, be sure to peel off and dispose of activation film on each bait station before placement. If this is not removed the ants will not be able to access the bait.

    Don't believe the promo reviews!

    Hese bait stations don't seem to work at all. I have seen the ants walk directly by them or even away from them. The plastic lip seems like its too thick for them to just casually walk into and be tricked into tasting the liquid. Such a bummer!!

    Try again

    I’d be hesitant to trust the promotion reviews. I bought these to help with ants in the kitchen. I have had two out for several days near the opening in the wall where they were entering. No ants have visited the trap, but they are definitely walking all around it and then off to explore other areas of the counter. Totally useless

    Does the job with no mess!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I was very pleased with this ant bait. The other liquid ones I have gotten were messy so I appreciate how this one is encased in plastic so it doesn't make a mess. This is way above the other brands, I'm so thankful I don't have to deal with the mess anymore.
