Terro 6pk Ant Killer Indoor Liquid Ant Baits: Easy-Use, Pre-Filled Bait Stations, Kills Colony

A: More than 3 months after its open. The liquid doesn’t evaporate out of the plastic. I had an infestation in February, used two gel packs. That ended, and I placed two more in the same corner. Its June and I arrived hime from vacation, the traps were attacked.

A: The effectiveness of the bait does not diminish over time. As long as it is still in liquid form, it can be used to eliminate the ants. While the product does not have an expiration date, we recommend replacing it if it is over two years old.

A: This product can be used on any indoor flat surface (as long as it is kept away from food prep areas). We recommend keeping the product close to where ant activity has been noticed.

A: You need to be very careful when placing it on a rug. The new design with the twist off end is awful. Very easy for liquid to come out.

A: The bait station will continue working as long as there is still liquid in it. This will depend on how many ants visit.

A: I noticed at some point the trap gets full with ants. The newcomers roam, rather than visit the trap. If i see a dozen roamers, I switch the trap out.

A: I never had to deal with the smell..and yes it does need to be placed on a flat surface

A: This product may have a slight sweet scent. It does need to be placed on a flat surface.

A: Hi, thank you for reaching out. The product needs to be placed in areas inaccessible to children and pets.

A: Thank you for contacting us. Regarding your question, We do not recommend placing it near food, as this prevents them from going to the food instead of the bait.

A: Yes, this is normal. With TERRO® Liquid Ant Bait, ants are attracted to the bait, feed on it, and then carry it back to the colony to share with others—including the queen. Because of this, you may not always see a large number of ants staying inside the bait station. It’s common to see ants gathering around the trap rather than inside it, especially in the early stages. Activity may even increase at first as more ants are drawn to the bait. For best results: Place the bait station along active ant trails Avoid spraying insecticides near the bait, as this can deter ants from feeding Allow several days for the bait to be carried back and eliminate the colony As long as ants are active around the bait, the product is working as intended.

A: Complete control may take up to two weeks, as more ants are initially attracted to the bait.

A: The bait attracts worker ants, who consume it and carry it back to the nest, killing the colony over time.

A: The active ingredient is Sodium Tetraborate Decahydrate, which helps disrupt the ants' digestive systems.
