    Great product

    By Glendon on 04/12/2019

    Great product, it's a little pricey but you only apply twice a year. It doesn't take much and you want to make sure ants are forging and won't get rain for a couple days.

    Good product and works well

    By Anthony on 05/10/2019

    Good product and works well. Residual that fire ants do carry away does not seem to decompose after colony has been eliminated and should be cleaned up. Follow the label for best results!

    Efficacy of Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait

    By John on 08/02/2019

    The Extinguish fire ant bait is very attractive to the fire ants, they readily pick it up in their foraging. If they pick it up, that's most of the game. I don't believe they make sidewalks or snow cones with it down in their mounds. It takes awhile for the poison to be effective, but that's all to the good; it will allow a larger dispersal. If, as it is believed, there are multiple queen, "super mounds", this should allow it to be even more advantageous in the elimination of them.

    Tired of ants ..

    By Tim on 10/04/2019

    Found DoMyOwn on line and was highly impressed with their line of products and complete information layout of such. I have sprayed a few times for ant control wich would limit activity for a while but always came back soon after. Thought I'd give Extinguish plus a try and it's been about 3 weeks now and it seems to be working well... The main thing with this bait is killing the egg cycle and thinning these ants out... we'll see. Will be dealing again with this company.. Thanks !!

    Didn't work for me

    By Deborah on 10/24/2019

    I started using the 5 lb product in August. For awhile it looked like it was really helping but now fire ants are multiplying. Large mounds. The customer service dept does not offer a money back guarantee and recommended that I use it for at least 2 years. This stuff is not cheap. I think I will go back to Amdro

    Not fast but does work

    By John on 02/11/2020

    It will kill 100% in the treated area, but it will not be over night. I treated the front half of my property last spring. Did a broadcast over the area and spot treatment on known mounds. Saw most mounds dead in days but still has some survivors that would show after rains. Mid summer I realized I was not seeing any more mounds. Doing it again this year over all my cleared property and only doing broadcast to maintain.

    Great product

    By Phillip on 05/17/2020

    I sprinkled a bit on and around a harvester ant pile and the next day, their were ant bodies all over around the opening. The second day they were all dead. I kicked the top off a fire ant nest and sprinkled a small amount on the nest. The next day, they were dead! This product works great. I highly recommend it for ant control.

    Utterly fantastic!

    By Diana on 05/22/2020

    This stuff is just fantastic! I place it in all my pastures and the next day the ants are gone. Plus they'll stay gone! I can't tell you what a relief this as I've inadvertently stepped in ant hills in the past. DoMyOwn quickly ships and has great customer service!

    Lifetime supply

    By Stan on 05/29/2020

    Mu sister got me to try this stuff thee or four years ago. The only knock is the price. Local farm stores get around $22.50 per 1.5, $60 for 4.5#. Not much better here but some. I shoulda waited for the other source to restock. That said, OA i'm a satisfied customer.

    True Ant Control

    By Jamie on 08/12/2020

    I purchased this product after my pest guy suggested it. I was being overrun by fire ants on our property this year. I followed instruction to a tee including the potato chip test. I used a hand spreader set on the lowest setting and covered the entire acre with a brisk walk. This product eliminated more than half the ants and continues to stay steady. I will be purchasing this again in spring through domyown.com.

    Magic In A Jug

    By Mary on 09/28/2020

    I was tired of products that I call "movers". Products that kill some fire ants and the others move 5 ft. over and start a new mound. So I called Clemson's Ag. Department looking for answers. My lawn is Centipede (turf grass), so I am always concerned when using any product on my lawn. I call Extinguish Plus magic in a jug, as it will take out a whole colony, including the queen (some mounds may have a dozen queens) in around 3 to 4 days. It does not kill ants like a pesticide, it works more like borax acid that we use in the house on those tiny little piss ants that somehow always finds their way into the house. It wreaks havoc within their digestive systems and gradually kills them from the inside out. I get better results if applied 24 hours or more before rain is expected. I have never treated my whole lawn, but I treat in areas where they tend to show up and spot treat as needed (colonies search for food, water, and cooler temperatures). I have a little over an acre and 4.5 lbs has lasted for over two years. Don't over apply, because you are wasting product. For the average mound, a hand full is too much. I have on occasion had to treat a mound twice. In those cases it was due to a deep depth of the mound or unexpected rain. You can control fire ants if you have the right products. Extinguish Plus is always in my arsenal and it is worth the price.

    Disappointed

    By Bill on 10/09/2020

    It did not kill every hill. I'd say it got around 70%.

    Fire Ants Be Gone

    By Brooke on 10/23/2020

    This is the one and only product I recommend for fire ants. It is expensive, but you will not be disappointed no matter how many or few you may have. They will take over do I say keep this on hand and any time you notice a mound take care of it. I also put this out over my yard in very small amounts to keep them from moving to another area once I notice. I cannot day enough wonderful things about this product! Also, it's safe for at animal they may eat it.

    Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait 4.5 lbs.

    By Sharon on 11/14/2020

    This ant bait does kill or reduce mounds quickly. Some bigger mounds may have to have a repeat application. DoMyOwn did a Great job of getting my order sent quickly to me. I would definitely buy from them again.

    Disappointed in North Florida

    By Alan on 11/20/2020

    This product was recommended to me by DoMyOwn and I have had very poor results. I followed the directions but not much luck. One time when I put it out it did rain soon after and I really didn't factor that in with my results. The other mounds have been, at best, similar to other less expensive baits where the ants just relocated very close to where they were before the treatment. Disappointed in North Florida.

    Works well

    By Ryan on 10/10/2021

    The product works very well but you will likely have to repeat treatment every 3-4 months based on my experience.

    Works as advertised

    By John on 10/23/2021

    We moved to South Carolina from Pennsylvania 1 year ago so this is our first experience with fire ants. I always thought that they were really big. After working around the landscaping I soon found out they are tiny and have a big painful sting. We get mounds of colony's throughout the yard and landscaping. Our pest control people charge over $150.00 to treat the property, about 1/3 acre. I have used DO MY OWN back in Pennsylvania for bee and wasp control and loved how effective it was so I decided to try their product on the fire ants. I have been using the EXTINGUISH PLUS FIRE ANT BAIT now for a couple of weeks following the instructions and it works as advertised and for a lot less than professional exterminators.

    FINALLY! Ant Poison that WORKS!! BEST EVER!

    By Joshua on 10/27/2021

    I have been fighting fire ants for years with no success! I would get rid of a dozen mounds just for a few dozen to pop up. I finally got extinguish plus fire ant bait, and followed the instructions on this website. I waited till a warm day in the Spring, and put out a potato chip in the yard to see if the ants were forging-- They were. I then spread this poison across my 5 acre yard. I monitored the ants for the next couple of days. The same day I put the bait out, they were carrying it back to their beds. I went out the next day and poked some of the beds, sure and behold their tunnels were filled with the poison they collected. A few days after I noticed that there were many dead ants the mound had gathered outside of the bed as well as the bait that they realized was killing them. It was too late at that point. Every single mound was gone and then for the rest of the summer I didnt have any mound appear. Not till it was almost fall. I now got more and placed it out and once again, no ants. I will use this bait from now on!!
