    Q
    Do the ants pick up the Advance Carpenter Ant Bait and take it back to the colonies?
    A

    The Carpenter Ants will eat the Advance Carpenter Ant Bait and take it back to their nest.  They will then feed the bait to the queen and the other colony members, and in turn the product will kill all of the ants in the colony.  This is important because once the colony is eliminated, you will not have to battle them again.

    Q
    Hand spreader using Advance Carpenter Ant Bait?
    What setting would you use? I bought the granules bit the directions are such small print that I can't read them.
    A

    Advance Carpenter Ant Bait states on the product label for broadcasting the rate is 1 lb per acre, which equals out to 1.8 oz per 5000 sqft or 0.4 oz per 1000 sqft.  You would set your spreader to whatever that setting is.

    Q
    Effects of rain on Advance Carpenter Ant Bait?
    After the granules are broadcast, will rain diminish the effectiveness?
    A

    Advance Carpenter Ant Bait can become unattractive to ants once it gets wet.  It would be best to apply when you have several days of no rain.

    Q
    If I can smell this bait, should I be worried too much has been applied and I'm breathing in poison?
    We hired a pest control company when we saw ants in our home. The "professional" brought this container, held it out to me and told me to smell it before he applied it in our attic. That was 10 days ago. Everyday, the part of the house directly under the attic smells worse and worse. It is the same fishy smell from the container of Advance bait he put into our attic. Why could the smell be getting worse? Did he use too much if we can smell it days later? Are the granules now settling into the insulation instead of laying on top allowing us to smell it better? Most importantly, is this dangerous to us or to our 5 month old baby? I'm just not sure whether the fact that we can smell this means we are breathing in poison.
    A
    Since we do not make the Advance Carpenter Ant Bait Granules, we would recommend contacting the manufacturer Whitmire Micro-Gen directly for your situation. They can be reached at 1-800-777-8570.
