Customer Reviews for Advion Ant Bait Gel

Jury is still out on this one. I thought it worked once but the same nest came back. Unfortunately they are in the insulation in my attic. Impossible to kill. I'm hoping bait will get the queen and end that problem. There are fewer ants coming in so it is working in that it is cutting the population down. In that sense it works. After 10 days I'm starting to wonder if I am just feeding them

My kids noticed some ants along the wall in one of our rooms. I followed it all the way to an electrical outlet. When I took off the wall plate, the ants poured out. It was crazy. I pulled the outlet covers off of every single one in my house and put a pea sized bead on the outside of each box, behind the wall plate. I added some to the corner baseboards in the room where they were the worst. Within a day most of the ants were dead and there were a few stray ants. I haven't had ants since I applied this product. I think they were fire ants.

Put the stuff down and watched several ants walk up to it , smell it and walk away. Maybe others are eating it ? who knows. In the Spring I'll be able to tell if ants are gone or not.

Everything arrived a bit later than expected, but all items looked fine. I have been ordering from DoMyOwn for years and will continue to do so. My only complaint, which was likely due to the shipping company, was that all items arrived extremely hot to the touch. No doubt, the package was left in some situation exposing it to heat. My concern is that heat does have the ability to alter the efficacy of active ingredients in many chemical products. I do hope this is not a problem

These tiny ants came right to the bait and appeared to take it back to the colony for a little while. Then soon just ignored it but would go to a fresh application placed nearby. The gel was not as expected (very lumpy, thick clear gelatin chunks blended in water) and dried out more quickly than expected. After a couple of weeks, I went back to the sugar/boric acid mixture and added two brands of dual ant baits in addition to the Advion. In about three more weeks the ants finally started to show up in lower numbers

After the first use, most of the ants are gone. I have just put two more drops in locations we have seen ants yesterday. So far so good.

I've used this product over a number of years. It works indoors or out. Takes a few days to get back to the nest an eliminate the ant problem. To me, a lot cheaper than hiring a pest service. jdw

I have historically bought this through Amazon but their system was glitching and wouldn't allow any shipping. What a nice surprise to find this company with great prices and prompt shipping. This product is the only solution I've found to keep the odorous house ants (sugar ants) under a modicum of control.

Advion is the answer to ant problems. Several applications and gone for good. Might have to treat new hatch.

Prompt use of this gel when you first see ants inside of your dwelling can help you track down their entry point, and will stop the incursion quickly if you catch it early enough. It's quick and easy to apply, so if you wake up at 2:00 AM to find a line of ants headed for your kitchen you can mount an effective response in a couple of minutes, then go back to bed and get some sleep before figuring out what to do next. Argentine ants are strongly attracted to the gel. They gather around it like tiny pigs at a miniature feeding trough within minutes of discovering it. Apply it as close as possible to where you suspect they are coming in, taking precautions to avoid having pets or children come into contact with the gel. Once you have accomplished that, go ahead and clean up all ants along the trail BEYOND where you applied Advion, and deal with any food that has been compromised. (They often go for my cat's dry food.) Very few will go past the gel after that if you clean up their trail with a household cleaner like 409 or ammonia. But it's important to allow them to come in from outdoors, suck up some gel, and go back out so they transport the poison to their nest. Indoor use of Advion won't stop ants from coming back over the long term, but it can stop an incursion within a few hours if you catch it early. Argentine ants are so pervasive in some areas that there is always another colony looking for a way into your home. Once they find a food source indoors, an incursion will escalate from dozens of ants to thousands in just a few hours. I'm hoping that more aggressive use of outdoor products like Amdro Ant Block and Termidor SC will provide longer term protection at my home. There is a lot to learn about controlling ants and other pests. Argentine ants are particularly vexing. They have completely displaced native species including California harvester ants here during my lifetime.

I've been trying to treat for ghost ants. They wouldn't go near Ant-Kil or Terro. Once I placed some of this on the kitchen counter, they were feeding within seconds. I have had to repeat treatments, but it works for sure.

I had small, black ants in the kitchen and bigger, brownish flying ants in the green house. After applying just a quarter of one tube in the effected areas, all ants are gone. I saw stink bugs dead as well so probably the product took care of the stink bugs also. Fist time I used DoMyOwn product on cockroach when I lived in the apartment building, it worked great, I lived cockroach free live for 5 years. Now I moved to a house and need to take care of local insects. Thank you DoMyOwn for your great products.

Solved my kitchen ant problem! Actually, my pest control company recommended this product. If I have any other "pest" issues I will certainly order from DoMyOwn!!

We had a very large infestation w/ Ants - nothing worked or if it did, it seemed like a reduction for a day or two, then they were back at it. Advion works and only took a few days - amazing, thanks so much.

I have used other Ant bait ovrr the years and none of them come close to Advion. You have to be patient and let the ants eat the bait and share with the colony, but this bait works!!

This stuff works great. We had some ants in our laundry room wall that chewed through some wires and burned out the light switch. While fixing the damage we removed the switch and placed this ant get in side the wall in little lines around the areas that had been damaged. Within 2 hours the gel was covered in ants all eating it so we left it all alone for several days. Came back not an ant in site and fixed all of the damaged wires and replaced the switches. Have not had any problems since. I keep an eye out and when I see little lines if ants on the outside of my house I'll add a little line of the bait here and there. Seems to be working great and I don't have to worry about my pets or animals getting in to it. Highly recommend!!!!!

Great food for ants. They absolutely love it and keep coming back for more, every moment of every day for over a month. Has not appeared to have killed any of them.

  Expert response:
We apologize you did not achieve the intended results. As long as the ants are eating they bait they will die, you just will not always see dead ants. If you are continuing to have activity you should continue to bait and may just have a larger population in the area than expected. We would welcome the opportunity to troubleshoot the application to help get you the results you need. Please contact us at your earliest convenience!

First time I bought it, it worked great. I would put the gel out, they would come and then never come again......This time it seems like they are having a feast, and they don't stop coming. Maybe it's not as strong as my first tube.
