Customer Reviews for Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait

We live in Stuart, Fl. Our property is up high on a sand ridge. For 3 years we have dealt with bigheaded ants around the property. Whenever it would rain they would enter every crevice in the house. I believe they even had a nest in attic. I have tried every home depot and lowes product. I used the tiger dust from lowes for a while but that would simply scare them away and make them hide out until the active dust disappeared. I decided to try Bayer 375A. I sprinkled one small bottle of Bayer 375A around our whole property which is 0.17 acres, very small. The ants immediately grabbed the granules and took them below into their nests. One week later after a vacation we came home. There were piles of dead ants everywhere. Piles of dead ants everywhere! This is the only product that worked for us with bigheaded ants in Florida! Buy it, you wont regret it!

Have used on outdoor ant-hills, ants in tree roots, and for ants in a wood structure. They take the bait home, and the colony dies out. Does not seem to work on small ants, but the big black ones are what we tend to have in eastern Ohio, and this is the stuff for them! Just a few teaspoonfuls on the hill, or in ant pathways does the job, usually within a week or so.

I've used so many products but none worked until I used this product. Advance Select Granular Ant Bait is unbelievable. As I am trying to shake or spoon the bait on the ants are carrying it away. Literally the instant you put it they are taking it back to the nest. Gone, gone, gone.

This product does the job. I sprinkle the bait around the perimeter of the house. It acts as a barrier. No ants. I also use a liquid bait for ants. Both products were effective.

It works, especially as a "bait band" around the house in spring before they set up housekeeping. Because it's in granules I don't worry about breathing it. Decent price too.

I use sparingly in my yard and garden. Then toss over across my neighbors yards. No fire ants for 3 years now.

Purchased the gel and granules due to carpenter ants on a porch. The ants were going up and down a post and I didn't want to start removing soffit to find the nest. I put some gel and granules on the handrail and the ants immediately began taking the bait. Two weeks later and there is no sign of the ants.

I found that the type of ants I have love this stuff. I just put a little bit in a medicine bottle cap & it draws them in, they take it back & ants no more.

I wanted to use something to kill the harvester ants in my backyard that was as benign environmentally as possible. I only placed bait by ant mound opening and placed a large garden pot over it , lifted on one side with a brick. This was to keep birds and my new puppy from seeing bait and eating the bait. Well, after 1 treatment I have seen ZERO harvester ants. How satisfying is that!

I have been in the pest control biz for 30 years. Baiting for ants will give you a pretty good chance at eliminating ant colonies. Now, things vary, type of ant, time of year, weather, time of day. Are there other critters that will steal the bait etc. Ants are after either protein or sweet things, again depending on time of year. If they are in your candy , use a sweet bait, if in the pet food THIS is the ticket. It works most every time. Now the beauty of these little granules is that you will actually see the ants move off with a piece. In this way with a flashlight with a red lens or just using slight light of a normal lens (don't freak them out) track them back to the nest. Is it outside? in the roof? You will , with this product be able to find out. Some baits kill too fast, you don't want that. With this product you have two ways to get them, a tainted food supply, and or finding and then attacking the nest direct. I have found THIS product to be the most successful one.

After reading other reviews I ordered this in conjunction with Advion Ant Bait Gel. I pulled back the pine straw on the outside of my home and started to shake the Advance 385A on the ground. Almost immediately it was like a feeding frenzy! I literally watched the ants carry the granules back into the ground. Several days later I did not see one ant in my kitchen. It's now been three weeks with no ants. I highly recommend this product along with the Advion Gel for indoors

In the past, I had used a sugar based ant gel bait. In my previous home, the sugar based gel always worked. But in my new home, the ants avoided it. After searching the Internet to find answers about why the ant bait wasn't working, I came on this website and read about how ants forage for what they need and if they don't need sugar - they won't take the bait. So I bought this ant bait because it is protein based. The ant problem was so bad that I decided to take a chance and give the granular bait a try. I am happy to say that within 5 seconds of putting this bait down, the ants were already taking the bait and then they swarmed within an hour. Within 3 to 5 days the number of ants dwindled and disappeared. It's been almost a month and I have had no problems since. I highly recommend this product and would gladly buy it again. It was just what I needed for my situation.

This is the good stuff! I used this and Advion Ant Bait Gel and I couldn't be more pleased. My black ant problem has been obliterated. As soon as i sprinkled it on the ground, they swarmed it and started carrying it off. I couldn't be happier. I would recommend this to any and everyone.

this product really works... I use to see a lot of large carpenter ants ... inside and out. at first I put the granulars outside. and the next day I just sprinkled some in my kitchen where I saw them the most. within a week later I saw no ants walking around. maybe one or two ants every now and then . now after sweeping up the dead ants when I got in fewer and fewer now .... there are no ants to even sweep up. so I finished filling and placing the bait traps all around the house. behind the fridge and stove in closets corners and joust openings . surprised it worked so fast. . I do recommend this product

I purchased several items in the past that just seemed to never work. A friend suggested using 375A ant bait who claimed to have great results. I purchased Advance 375A and I have been using it ever since. Works great, and is easy to use. I would recommend this product .

Highly recommended protein based bait. Used in conjunction with liquid Terro borax bait. Worked like a charm. When they stopped going to the liquid they went for the advance pellet's. Wiped out the entire colony. Helpful to use both products as colonies require both protein and liquid.

I learned how effective this product was a few seasons ago however I am learning about the different times of year when ants need to feed on proteins or sugars. If you buy this product I do recommend you get the sugar bait kit as well. If ants are hungry for either one they will consume it all if they pick and go then you have your answer to switch to the other product

So far so good. Seemed to work where another product failed, or it was a combination of both. So far the ants have not been seen again.

I had a trail of ants attacking my dog's food after a heavy rainstorm pushed the ants inside my home. I contacted Do My Own Pest Control and they assessed the situation and recommended Advance 375A Select. The ants were gone in a matter of hours. I now plan to look through their other products. Thanks Guys!

Used this product when I was a professional pest tech with a major pest control company. Had great results with it then and now, around my own home. Both pavement and carpenter ants scoop this stuff up like crazy. I used it on and around our front walk and a couple days after using it...bingo, no pavement ants.

This is a great product.  Does the trick on carpenter ants.  Small amounts placed along the ant trail and in a few days all are gone.  Also a great price from the people at DoMyOwnPestControl.

As soon as I put it down the ant's were all over it. I actually saw them fighting over it. This stuff was by far the best ant bait I've found. Money well spent.
