Extginguish did not work for me
By Sheila in Klein, Texas on 01/18/2017
I used the Extinguish on a fire ant mound but it didn't kill any of them. When I checked it a few days later the entire colony was still there. No sign of dead ants. Will not buy this product again.
Expert response:
Thank you for your feedback! Fire Ants can be tricky to treat because baits will only be effective while they are foraging. If the ants are not foraging - which is likely during the winter months - then you will need to rely on insecticides until the ants are looking for food again. A good quick test is to drop a few potato chips near a mound (without disturbing the mound) and then checking back in a couple hours to see if the ants are foraging on the chips. If they are, then it is a good time to bait. You can view more information and videos in our Fire Ant Treatment Guide here: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-fire-ants-a-470.html We are also always happy to assist you over the phone at 866-581-7378, via Live Chat, or by email at [email protected].

Dead ants that don't come back, but use it quickly
By Anonymous in Austin, TX on 07/14/2013
Kills fire ants quickly, and they don't come back. The only down side is it goes bad in just a few months, even faster if exposed to moisture (like the heat and humidity here in Austin), so keep in in…

Amazing!
By Monica in Acton, CA on 07/30/2012
I dealt with ant problems many years ago and had your basic spraying exterminators come by, which didn't stop the problem at all. Then I found a great exterminator who used bait to sterilize the queen…

By John in Dunnellon, Florida on 10/06/2015
I used to have this product applied by a professional and this year, I decided to do it myself to save a little money. It works. There's nothing more to say about it. No fire ants on our ten acres.

Expert response:
We are sorry that you are not seeing the results you expected from the Extinguish Plus. It is possible that the fire ants in the area are not actively foraging and, therefore, not interested in any baits. I would take a few moments to review our Fire Ant Treatment Guide which includes tips for bait and also mound drenching with insecticide: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-fire-ants-a-470.html

Extinguish Plus for fire ants.
By Mark in Austin, TX on 11/15/2016
Been using 2x annually for several years. Makes a dramatic impact on ant populations. Remember it is a "food bait", once opened apply pretty quickly. Also do not use under wet weather conditions.
Pleased with results

By Mo in St. Martinville, LA on 10/01/2016
Gets rid of 90% of fire ants. Use two times a year for great results.
