By Thomas in Huntsville, AL on 07/11/2015

By William in Prattville, Alabama on 09/29/2017

I have used extinguish with good results. The Extinguish Plus does not work as well. It only got rid of 50% of the fire ant colonies. I suspect the insecticide in the plus kills the workers before the…

Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait
1 of 5 stars
By Harvey in Plant City Fl on 12/31/2014

Product did kill some ants, but after second application, still had some ants. The ants moved to a new location instead of being killed. Would definitely try another product.

Expert Response  Expert response:

We would recommend testing to see if the target ants are actively foraging before you apply the bait. A great test if to use a potato chip to see if fire ants are attracted to it. The best times to bait will be usually in the early morning or late afternoon and when soil temperatures are above 60 degrees F. Also be sure to keep the bait dry; do not apply within 6 hours of a rain event as wet bait will not be attractive. If you have further questions, we are always happy to assist you over the phone as well at 866-581-7378 M-F 9a-5p EST.

Expert Response  Expert response:

Thank you for your comments. When using ant baits, we recommend reapplying the bait as long as the ants are accepting it. Sometimes this will be for a few days, sometimes a few weeks, depending on the size of the population. Be sure you are applying the bait when ants are actively foraging and soil temperatures are above 60 degrees. Also be sure the bait stays dry, since wet bait will be less attractive. You could also choose to treat individual mounds with an insecticide that is labeled for this use. Talstar P is a popular and economical choice: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/talstar-talstar-one-p-97.html. Per the product label: "Treat mounds by applying 1 oz Talstar Professional per mound in 1 to 2 gallons water by sprinkling the mound until it is wet and treat 3 feet out around the mound. Use the higher volume for mounds larger than 12
