TERRO Liquid Ant Baits: An Effective Solution for Ant Infestations
Ants can be a nuisance anywhere, whether it's in your home, workplace, or any other location. To combat common household ants, simply place TERRO Liquid Ant Killer in areas where ant activity is observed. As the bait spreads throughout the ant colony, it eliminates both the visible ants and those that remain hidden. Within a few days, a noticeable reduction in ant numbers should be apparent. Each 2 oz bottle of TERRO Liquid Ant Killer is potent enough to tackle your infestation effectively. Remember, the more bait placements you use, the more effective the treatment will be.
How Does Liquid Ant Bait Work?
Despite initially attracting more ants, TERRO Liquid Ant Bait serves a crucial purpose. As ants search for food, they are drawn to the sweet, sugary liquid bait. Worker ants consume the bait, leaving behind a pheromone trail that guides other worker ants to the food source. This phenomenon explains why there may be an increase in ant activity at first. The active ingredient in the bait, Borax, disrupts the ant's digestive system gradually, causing its eventual demise. However, this slow-acting process allows foraging ants to carry the bait back to the colony multiple times, effectively spreading the poison within the entire population.
How to Use Liquid Ant Baits
Using TERRO Liquid Ant Killer is simple and straightforward. Prior to applying the ant killer, ensure that other food sources like crumbs, sugar, and grease spots are removed to prevent diversion of ant activity. Avoid placing the bait where insecticides have previously been sprayed, as it may deter the pests from encountering the ant killer. Tear apart the cardboard tiles along the perforated lines and apply drops of the liquid ant killer on the smooth side of the tile. Alternatively, use small pieces of paper, cardboard, or foil as substitutes. Position the tiles on flat surfaces near ant sightings, and add additional placements at potential entry points in your home. Regularly monitor the bait placements without disrupting the ants or the bait itself. If the liquid dries up, replenish it, or add more tiles to ensure a fresh supply for the ants. Depending on the extent of the ant invasion, complete control may take up to 2-4 weeks. To prevent ants from returning, replace the bait every 3 months.
