Customer Reviews for Advion Fire Ant Bait

We had fire ants popping up in our yard, and a week after applying they were gone. Highly recommend this stuff as a deterrent and control.

I used the Advion Fire Ant bait on 6 fire ant mounds and the colonies were completely destroyed within 2 days, very good product.

We've had European Fire Ants since we bought our house two years ago. They've gotten progressively worse, biting our children, eating our garden, invading every area of our outdoor life. We tried to stay away from chemicals, but nothing made a difference. One treatment and we've seen a massive reduction! WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Advion works every time - if you follow the instructions, Fire Ants are gone withing days. Extinguish works almost as well, but living in SC, I have found Advion to be the premier agent against Fire Ants. I have used both for over 5 years. Extinguish needs more care in application (sun, foraging, wet grass etc). But when applied appropriately works applied once in spring and once in fall. Advion needs application more often, usually 3 -4 times through the fire ant season. This is all my opinion, but I take fire ant infestation personally!

Definitely a good product. I was skeptical and a little put off by the price but after using it I'm a believer! It works and is cheaper in the long run because you don't have to keep reapplying.

This is the ant bait of all ant baits. Fire ants are all, well were all, over my property. Applied 4 tablespoons 3-4 ft around each mound, 2 days later dead ants. Only signs of activity were ants on their death bed. I even scratched the top back on a few mounds and saw the ant bait they had carried into the mound. I can not recommend this product enough. You want to control your ant problem? This is the solution!

Used Advion last year. Treated individual mounds as I found them. Rarely had to retreat a mound. Typically two or three light shakes of product distributed around an active mound, and no activity was noted after two days, often in only one day.

I have been spreading Advion for about 3 years for fire ants. This product kills fire ants as advertised . When used as directed it takes care of your fire ant problem. No more worrying about your children or pets being stung by these little critters. Great product !

The best ant bait I've ever used. Put it on the nest and then there gone. Most cases overnight. Best of all it has low toxicity for mammals, meaning cats and dogs.

I love this product. It is very effective and really does kill them, not just run them. It usually takes from 24 hrs to 2-3 days to see the result, but they do DIE! I was using Top Choice which is great also, but when I could no longer get it I decided to give this a try. This is my second purchase of Advion Fire Ant Bait and even though it is a bit on the spendy side, it is well worth it and when used correctly (it doesn't take much) it works great. Sometimes, I am too scotch with it and have to reapply, but that is my fault. I highly recomend this product.

We have used this before and we have huge mounds of fire ants. They take it in and that does it! Grandkids are ready to play. Thanks!

This product is the only one I've found that actually works. You must use it as recommended and check for ant activity after each rain. I wish all my neighbors would use it too.

Treated 20 ant hills, all but two were inactive within a week. Two larger ones will be working on. Get them when you first see them- don't wait like I did. Wonderful easy to use product. Clear instructions.

I have distributed this product twice around my entire yard and still there are tiny red ants and the big bowl ants. It has not rained nor have I put water on any of the areas. Not sure why it is not working for me. Unfortunately, it was a waste of money.

Good stuff but way too expensive. The price is absolutely ridiculous.

I've tried most of the Fire Ant products at Home Depot & Lowe's with partial success. Then I ordered Advion Fire Ant Bait from Do My Own Pest Control. So far, there are no mounds or evidence of Fire Ants. I can actually enjoy landscaping in my yard without constantly looking down for fire ants. What a relief. Advion really works. Death to all fire ants!!!

I have been using this for years. I tried a generic one, and it didn't work as well and took twice as much. I love the color of the granules and it makes me smile when I apply it, makes the task more enjoyable. I find that it works better if I spread it over the anthill in addition to the perimeter.

Product was recommended by our exterminator as effective and safer around pets and children. Had been buy locally but was great to find online, same price and free shipping. Accidentally ordered wrong version but company representative quickly remedied. Will continue to use their service!

This stuff really impressed me. For the first time in years my yard and nearly fire ant free. Very effective stuff!

I've never dealt with fire ants before until I moved to Florida. These things are vicious! I tried a few products earlier in the season. Not very effective. This product here... it's been about 4 weeks now. I havent seen or been bitten by one since the day after application. Definitely a great product.

I love that I can use this with watering it in. I used a little less than the instructions called for, and it worked great!

I applied this on my fire ant mounds when it warmed up enough for the ants to come out of the deep earth from winter. Very effective. Since that time (4 weeks ago) it isn't doing anything. Broadcast spread it in the yard. Don't use it as bait like you would AMDRO. I've got an unopened container and will use it up this weekend.
