Very good Product
By Frank on 07/04/2011
I would argue that, given the price, this product can't be beat. I put some outside in locations around my home. About half attracted ants within an hour or so; the other half never did. They must be placed where you see ants traveling so they will get discovered. Ther ants visited the stations for several days in high numbers. Then the numbers dwindled to almost nothing - and I wasn't seeing ants around at all anymore. I plan to move these around to other locations on my property and be agressive about getting rid of them all! A rain came up and the splattering muc really tends to clog up the bait stations - on and in the up/down tupe that allows the ants access to the bait. I used a can of compressed air (as used for cameras and computers) to blow away the mud and that cleand them up almost instantly and restored functionality. It doesn't take nearly as much ant bait as one initially thinks to use these. Filling them less than 1/4 full is more than adequate. Used with Maxforce Granules and Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait.

Versatile bait station
By Jesse on 02/11/2013
Easy to use and install. Put 8 of these around the perimeter of my home and in a week noticed a massive drop in the ant population in my landscaping & around my home perimeter. Used Advance granular bait & Liquid bait in all stations to appeal to many species of ants & it worked. I'm a professional & would recommend this product for someone with a consistent or annual ant issue.

Ant No More Bait Station
By Faldes on 06/15/2012
When you have a big ant problem this is the way to go. We started with the smaller kind and had to refill so many times. This holds a lot. Well made. Helpful to use something to attract the ants to the base of it to encourage the use of it.

Easy to use and works great!
By Ron on 08/26/2016
We have had horrible carpenter and sugar ant infestations around our yard/gardens/house this year. Lots of late spring rains into early summer drove these buggers into new areas every 3-4 days. Spraying with excellent ant killer from DMOPC helped a lot, but it wasn't enough. So after 3 months of waging war with them on a weekly basis I decided to take the battle to their nests. I placed 3 of these in their foraging paths with a sprinkle of protein bait and sugar liquid bait outside to entice investigation and in 3-4 days I don't see any ants. They're easy to fill, easy to place in semi-moist soil, and easy to refill. The snap on cap is nice and snug so it cuts down on liquid evaporation and it keeps rain and yard watering out as well. Next year when we see the little critters these will go out first followed up by a spraying around the perimeter of the house and that's it for 'em! Sometimes even a slow witted human can outsmart a devious ant once he sets his mind to it!

Good Idea But They Leak
By Jon on 10/28/2017
With the dual chambers this station is a good idea. You can place gel in one chamber and pellets in the other. The problem is that when it rains water gets into the stations and runs the bait. I've had these for three years and every one of them mildews ruing the bait. Also, they stick up high and you have to place them where you can mow around them, which prevents them from being placed in the best locations. For what they are, they are much too expensive.

Use a heavy gauge rail spike to make the hole
By Anonymous on 06/01/2013
have yet to determine their effectiveness. Heavy rains crossed the area after my placement. That and the bait has an influence. The appear durable, used a ant bait from Lowe's because the Termacide purchased was learned after the fact not for these. I placed 8 on the front and one of the sides - i have a heavy infestation. Its only a 1050sqft house. I still need to bait the back. I know not if its the bait or the traps but where both were placed I no longer see ants.

ANT NO MORE BAIT STATION
By Joyce on 03/20/2015
Still testing
By Rscott on 07/08/2022
The item is reasonably priced. The plastic could be a little thicker for added strength. Haven't had success with the ants taking the bait yet, but that may be the bait or the time of year they want the bait. Moisture from condensation may get inside which I don't think is avoidable. You may want to enclose this in thick gauge wire mesh if you have foxes or raccoons. These critters can easily tear this open to get the bait.

Argentine ants
By Mary on 12/02/2022
Long into my battle against Argentine ants - found these and installed a few weeks ago. Like the split design for two different baits and it's a clean, simple design that is very effectIve. Buying more for my citrus orchard.

Easy to use - durable for outside use
By Jim on 05/26/2023
Bought these for insecticide baits for an outdoor shed carpenter ant infestation - as a complement to other control attempts. The traps were in stock ( unlike other online sources), shipped as promised, and arrived in good condition. The traps open easily enough, and should keep racoons and other animals out. Traps install in the ground easily; however something ( I suspect racoons) pulled them out of the ground, but could not open them. I like having two bait compartments so that I can use more than one kind of bait. Would recommend.
