A: The TERRO® Ant Killer Plus Shaker Bag should be applied in areas that pets cannot easily access to help reduce curiosity and contact. To help with this: - Apply the granules directly into cracks, along the perimeter, or in areas where ants are active rather than open spaces. - Lightly water the treated area after application to help the product settle into the soil. - Keep pets away from the treated area until it has been watered in and is dry. - Avoid placing the product in areas where your dogs frequently walk, play, or dig. When used as directed on the label, it can be used in outdoor areas, but keeping pets away during and right after application helps ensure proper use and effectiveness.

A: TERRO® Ant Killer Plus is designed to kill a variety of insects on contact, including ants and other crawling pests. Because it is a broad-spectrum insecticide, it can also affect other insects if they come into direct contact with the treated area. Pollinators like bees are not a target, but they can be impacted if they land on or contact treated surfaces, this is true for most insecticides. To help reduce any risk, it’s best to apply the product only to ground areas (like lawns or around foundations) and avoid using it near flowers or areas where pollinators are actively foraging.
