Does not work
By Christopher in MIAMI,Florida on 02/18/2019
I've been watching the ghost ants in my kitchen eat this stuff for the past three weeks and there is no sign of them slowing down. They eat the bait, I reapply but to no avail.
Expert response:
Thank you for your review. We apologize you have not received the expected results. It sounds like you may have a very large colony or multiple satellite colonies feeding off of the bait. If your ant trail to the bait has been consistent you want to continue to have fresh bait available to them as long as you see activity. If the nest location is unknown then the ants could be traveling as little as a few feet away from the bait to the nest, or up 30+ feet away from the bait. If you think part of the colony may be accessing food sources elsewhere as well as the bait this can play a part in how long it takes for them to be eliminated completely as well. If you haven't already, try placing a small dab of peanut butter on a piece of tin foil near the gel bait placement. If some of the colony starts going for it then that colony is also needing a protein source and not just a sugar source (the gel). A protein bait like Maxforce complete 8 oz would be a great option to pair with the gel. (https://www.domyown.com/maxforce-complete-granular-bait-p-1603.html)
Advion works well

Ants gone the next day. A few days later, more appeared. Did not return after second treatment. You don't need extra plungers as the bait is easily expressed from the tube with finger or anything el…

Almost *too* good
By Gregory on 07/24/2012
As I mentioned in the title of this review, this stuff REALLY attracts ants. I guess that's the point, but it was a little scary (at first). I had an infestation of the little brown ants in my master …

By Andrea in Sebastian,FL on 04/17/2016
This does not work with carpenter ants inside the home. I am not sure if it was meant for them or not but I was disappointed.

Advion Ant Bait Gel

This product worked right away. Ants were attracted to it and gobbled it up. Seeing less of them so it seems it is starting to wipe out the colony. Would order again.

By Annice in Phoenix, Arizona on 07/14/2016
I've used this Advion gel in the past and it seemed to work. I'm sure the effectiveness of the bait depends on the type of ant you have. This time it looked like I had more than one variety, so I comb…
