Advion Ant Bait Arena, 12-Count Bag, Effective Bait in A Small Plastic Arena for Easy Placement, Formulated with 0.1% Indoxacarb, Indoor and Outdoor Use, for Control of Most Major Ant Species (3)

ABSOLUTELY. LOVE THIS PRODUCT. I came across it along with maxforce. I use them together . I just squirt some of the maxforce in the Bait discs this product affects their neurological system and the roaches start walking crooked staggering YOU MUST KEEP IT OUT of reach of any DOG'S CATS or CHILDREN. I open the bag and some of the bait discs fell on the floor and all 4 dogs were on top of the products immediately wanting to eat it. So whatever it is, it is highly attractive, so use the double face tape and stick them up high to where they cannot get them. One dog did manage to get it from between the cabinet and refrigerator and it made her vomit and foam at the mouth. She was older dog but she didn't die We learned our lesson but maxforce also works extremelywell. They eats the bait goes to the nest. and the roaches that haven't eaten. the bait yet can still be killed by proximity So that's why I like both products. We inherited this older house from a relative and it was infested with roaches within a month we started seeingdead roaches everywhere. We after 2 months we haven't seen any roaches at all. We were about to have the house fogged, but this stuff is amazing I could not recommend this enough If you have a roach problem or you live in an apartment complex This is an absolute must have. Within one week of use You will notice a significant drop in roach activity My husband says that he has noticed the roaches will just Jump off of the cabinet into the floor and go around in circles. So in order to get more roaches we resist the urge to kill them because they can still go to their nest and kill more. There's no noticeable smell can be used outside or inside. If you uses the metal syringe it comes with will need a small wire to clean out because it's so thick. You really don't kneed the syringes tips. If you loose the plunger uses a 30ml syringe plunger. Also, the syringes are 3/4 filled that's just how they come. GET THIS PRODUCT AND NO MORE ROACHES!!!!

I live in San Diego County, California. We have always had an ant problem here. But I was able to handle it and keep the annual kitchen overrun at bay for years using those ant stakes around the perimeter of the house. But that stopped working in 2017/2018. I put tanglefoot on the poles of my hummingbird feeders. That worked, the moats dried up too quickly in the summer. Then I put tanglefoot on tape around the indoor trashcan in 2018. That worked. I put dog food dish in a tray of water. But I finally bought ant proof pet food dishes. Those worked beautifully. In the winter of 2018 the ants finally subsided pretty much. But of course they started up again in the spring 2019. I had an Airbnb guest get crawled on by ants in the summer! Yikes! I immediatly researched and made my own boric acid ant bait and placed them around the perimeter of the house. Every night I patrolled outside and placed more bait on the gigantic ant trails marching four or more abreast toward the house in 12 locations. This kept them pretty well out of the bedrooms but they found their way around the Tanglefood on the trashcans this year. So I ended up putting the trashcans in water in trays used for puppy pads. Both in the kitchen and upstairs for guests.But the dogs kept drinking that water, I would lose track and ants attacked the minute the water was dry. So I replace the water with diatamaceous earth. That worked and had worked for several years for outside cat food on a tray the DE. But as winter arrived the ants kept coming into the kitchen, bathrooms and elsewhere! Arrrrggggghhhh.....! There were no trails outside! They must have set up shop in the walls and under the house! Then on Christmas my son told me he used Advion and it really worked. I ordered it the next day. I bought both the protein stations and the gel. After two days I did not seeing ants near any of the 6 bait stations I set up. I dated the bait stations and placed the gel on top of them. But I am not done. NO! I am not trusting this yet! I ordered these outside Kness bait stations for outdoors that can hold two different baits and are rain proof. I also ordered Advance375a b/c it is a protein bait I can put in these bait stations along with the Advion gel. According to my research, at different times ants are after protein for the babies and at other times the same ant species will be after sugar. I will put them out now and replenish in the spring to get ready for the summer onslaught, that I hope will not happen, at least in the house.1/1/2010

We have always seen little ghost ants in our house, sometimes from new houseplants and sometimes from things we can't figure out... but at a certain point in time, they were OUT OF CONTROL in our kitchen and were spreading to other places in our home. They weren't in our pantry or anything, but we would see them all over our counter and it was driving us insane. No ant bait that we bought at our local hardware store and Home Depot would work, unfortunately, so we turned to Amazon and found this. We ended up buying this in conjunction with the Advion gel bait, which in my opinion, is necessary. According to the company we use for pest control, ants go through a "sugar" phase and they go through a "protein" phase, and what they forage for is based on whatever cycle they are in. So, if they are in the sugar phase, you'll find them going after sweets. Or, if they are in the protein phase, you'll find them going after things more savory. For example, we had a plate in the sink with a little bit of pork left on it and we noticed the ants were going crazy over it, but at other times we'd see them near the peanut butter. When we first put these out we thought it wasn't working, because, unlike other ant baits/poisons, we would never see the ghost ants around the bait arenas. But, before we knew it, we no longer had them! Upon further inspection of the arena, we could see that they actually had been eating the bait. Every time we see ants, we put one of these baits in the area that we see them and they are always gone within a day or two. This stuff is pricey, compared to other ant baits and poisons, but this stuff works wonders and is well worth every penny and more. Absolutely recommend, you will NOT be disappointed.

Springtime is the perfect time to deploy this product, when the ants are out foraging and the queen needs food to produce eggs. This is a far better option than spray poison because spray poison kills wanted insects. I am pleased with the fact that it appears to be working most the time. Just one problem - I have to protect it from the dog by putting a wire barrier around it. The dog thinks he found a treat when his nose finds a trap. Enough feeders in the bag to last all summer!

Advion Ant 30 ct ant bait stations I pulled a smoke alarm from the front room ceiling to replace its battery, and a swarm of ants came out of the attic fixture. I didn't have them identified professionally, but they seemed to be carpenter ants; non-aggressive, jet black, about half-inch long. The nest was not in the fixture, so probably nearby in the attic. Based on reviews of Advion, I ordered these bait stations. I put one of these pucks up into the fixture (more ants swarmed out), then replaced the smoke alarm. Four days later, I pulled down the alarm and... nothing. No ants, no sign ants had ever been there. Note that the bag clearly says "excluding carpenter ants". I used them anyway, with excellent results. Perhaps my ants weren't true carpenter ants, who knows? I just know these bait stations wiped out the ants in a few days. I also placed bait stations all around the outside perimeter of the house and near a couple of old tree stumps in the back yard. Hopefully, this is the end of the ant problem. Good product, strongly recommended.

I have a superhighway of small brown ants going back and forth along the metal strip between the carpet of the TV room and the kitchen linoleum, running from my deck door to my pantry closet. They seem to have found some syrup that had spilled months ago and had been cleaned up, but for what seeped under the linoleum in the pantry. I have had lesser ant invasions in past years for which I purchased baits containing the same active ingredient as these (indoxacarb), and they worked very well, with no ants seen after just 3 days. I had this product placed at 3 points in the ant trail only to be completely ignored. After ten days, there has not been the slightest effect on the ants. Other reviewers said that these seem to be effective only on grease-eating ants, not sweet-eating ants which I seem to have. The package mentions no such limitation, only that it's not effective against carpenter ants. If that's the case, the labeling should be changed.

I have bought the gel previously and it worked good, but wasn’t always practical to apply. Bought these to try out and they are much better. Had a couple of ant problems, which these traps cleared up in a matter of days. I also placed a few in other spots to prevent a future issue. One I forgot about in my garage, I just recently remembered I placed. Noticed it had a small pile of ants inside it (placed on a wall) under it was the rest of the colony, in a nice pile that I thought was dust and lint initially. I left that trap up for about 5 months when I forgot it. Highly recommend if you have an ant problem. These also work outside but slightly less effective depending on weather conditions.

Does nothing to stop Argentine ants. But it does make a good starting point. I pop the top off, mix in some crumbled dog treats (Nudges, chick/duck which we have unintentionally "proven" that the ants love), along with a small squirt of the Advion gel, stir it up carefully and leave it kind of lumpy in the center cup, then squirt a few blobs of the gel around the edge of the center cup with a little bit of it leading them up into the cup. It's a lot of work, but here are the results: Gel-only: kills workers but not queens or larvae. You get a few days respite, then they are back. Bait stations only: no interest what-so-ever by the ants. Bait stations setup the way I do it: 100% kill of workers, queens, and larvae within 24 hours. This is based on my experience that the column stops and does not come back for weeks or months.

Worth the comparative expense of others on the market. You get a substantial bag of them. We have had huge amounts of flying ants and worker ant swarming, on and off over years, into a downstairs bathroom and reception room. Pest control ok for 1 year but expensive and didn't deal with problem completely. House has been repointed. Holes sealed where possible. Finally got this product after research on internet. Worker ants swarmed towards it and were seen to be in a more controlled small area. Flying ants reduced to odd 1 or 2 looking weak. It's now Day 6 and we may have got rid of them! Will be interesting to see what happens next summer!

Bought to finish off a nest of small ants which it did well. As a bonus, and much to my surprise, it also caught a dozen weevils which I didn't know I had. Eventually found a compromised pack of old sushi rice at the back of a cupboard!

Live in desert climate. Ants a major problem. New nests popping up all the time. No other product has controlled them. Advion Ant Station really does the trick. Pricey but highly recommended

Not as good as the gel but safe to have with children around. Moderately effective I would say, as still have many ants nests despite months of trying to get them under control

Despite not seeing any ants entering the cups, within about 3 days the infestation seems to have gone! There are 30 cups in the pack. I put 2 in each room close to where the ants were running.
