KILLER BAIT- Advance 375A
By Bill on 10/15/2010
Living in Northern Calif. at the snow line on 40 + acres we have a variety of critters, BIG and small. One of which are ANTS which can be a real nuisance inside as well as outside, close to the house. Since using Advance 375A for the past two years around the home, few if any ANTS have dared to come into the home. Keep them a reasonable distance away and they don't come close.

Advanced 375A Select Granular Ant Bait -2 lb
By Tom on 05/15/2011
We had carpenter ants 10 years ago. They did $20,000 of damage to my house, materials only. We started spotting them again in several rooms of the house. I could find no damage but I knew they were somewhere. I finally isolated them in a bedroom and knocked a hole in the wall, poured the ant bait into the hole and in a few days we started seeing fewer ants. In about two weeks the ants disappeared altogether. As a preventive measure, I put the ant bait in the attic and in the crawl space and every place I would go if I were an ant. So far, so good. I will continue to monitor the situation and place the bait where it seems appropriate. Excellent product. I feel like I just saved $20,000. Well worth the 49 bucks.

Its a miracle
By Tim on 06/05/2011
Finally, no more ants. I spread this around the outside of my house and apparently the ants liked it. I only have the occasional ant; before if I left anything out the ants were there within an hour. I would highly recommend this product.

Good granular bait
By Jesse on 02/11/2013
Used in Ant-b-gone bait stations. Nice granular bait with a broad label for a lot of different kinds of ants. I am a professional and I prefer Ascend granular bait over this as a broadcast treatment but the Advance is a nice rotational bait or spot treatment bait.

got ants
By Geoff on 02/20/2013
Jury still out
By House on 08/21/2015
I treated my house today with this granular ant bait and I watched the continuous line of ants March right by. So I don't know why they won't take it or if it works- I bought the advion ant bait gel and tried that and got a good response- ants that ate it

Very effective for some species
By Mort on 07/21/2016
Totally works
By Ep on 02/02/2024
Skeptical at first but this bait totally brought out the ants in droves. Placed a spoonful of this overnight in areas where there was high traffic. By next day, there were some dead ants and no sign of activity anywhere. Waited a couple of days and still no activity. Completely satisfied with this product.

Pretty effective!
By Ant-agonist on 05/01/2025
I’ve been only using sugar based and this was my first protein based product. They do love this stuff! And it doesn’t dry out / ants don’t bring debris into the bait stations. Though I believe it gets stale because ants start ignoring once it’s been out for a while (about a week or so). They would also prefer real protein like dead bugs even when I put fresh ones out. The number of ants I see has actually increased, but I’m trying to see this as part of the process.

No More Ants
By Annette on 05/04/2010
Love this product! You don't see the effects right away, but it definitely got rid of our problem of carpenter ants. We used to see trails of ants from different areas, and now every spring, we treat around our foundation and considering we have a lot of trees around our home, we usually sprinkle around most of those too. I haven't seen an ant on the inside of my home now for 2 years (since we've been using it). This stuff really works!

Ants Love It
By George on 07/02/2010
I bought the complete ant kit, but so far only have used the Advance bait. I wear leather garden gloves because of the cautions on the label. I sprinkle granules where I see the ants (Argentine, I think) entering the outside wall of the house. They really do rush to pick up the granules right away. Next day the granules are gone. Every few days I check whether ants are still coming in and sprinkle more if I see them. Now we see very few ants inside the house, when before they were all over the place around and under the edges of the carpet.

Not Working Well
By Samuel on 05/08/2011
I used this product as instructed. Carpenter ants just kept coming and coming. They did however carry down inside the nest but showed very little results? I have decided to change to another option that is working very well.

Ant Bait
By Ed on 05/30/2011
On the fence
By Kris on 05/31/2011
Being that I absolutely freak out when I see insects but primarily ANTS, I somehow found my way to this website. Based on the stellar reviews, I purchased the big $50 bottle and immediately began sprinkling around my house to get rid of the disgusting carpenter ants that have decided to hang out by my front steps. Now, while I have seen a decrease in the numbers, I still see enough of these pesky ants to drive me mad and they appear to step right on the bait or go around it. It seems like they know they need to avoid it and they are. I am so disappointed that they all didn't get wiped out. Not sure what to do and I am so bummed out. My neighbor also informed me that he has the same problem and that they have been a problem since he moved in about seven years ago. Do I need to get some dynamite and blast em????

Wow! I just saved $250.00!!!
By Diyguy on 07/04/2011
I was told by my professional pest control people two years ago that this product could only be purchased by a licensed pest controller. I called them this year and they had doubled their price to come out and treat our home. I'm trying to save money like everyone else while the oil companies take our money at the pump, so I looked on here for a solution. Having remembered the name of the key component made it a quick search. Was glad to see that Abamectin could be bought as of this time. Put out the recommend amount and was patient for 5-6 days until dead carpenter ants littered the corner of our living room like a battlefield. Still have more than enough to last for years if it will keep. Anyone know? Thanks, guys!

Used by Professionals
By D. on 07/07/2011
This is the product was used by the professional exterminator I called to address a carpenter ant problem. The ants were apparently coming from outside the house to the inside. The professional used this product in select areas around the house and yard and within days an immediate difference was noted and within three weeks the ants were virtually non-existent. I purchased the product to keep on hand so I can feed my ants before resorting to the professional.

advance 375A select granular bait- 2 LB
By Jeff on 04/09/2012
This product is excellent for getting rid of those pesky ants. Put a small amount of it down and they will come a running and take it back to the nest taking care of the whole colony. Stopped all of my ant problem on my place and I have three acres. Best product I have used to get rid of ants.

The Best Ever
By Mike on 06/07/2012
I bought a neglected house that was infested (unknowingly) with carpenter ants. I tried everything to get rid of them. Three years ago I used this product and there are STILL no ants on the property. I overused the product, but my entire neighborhood was infested. This stuff works like stink bait on catfish. You can dump it right on the ants and they will pick it up and carry it off.
