Product Overview

Ferti-Lome Come and Get It! Fire Ant Killer II is an ant bait that attracts fire ants and harvester ants that are actively foraging.  It is readily taken back to the nest and shared with the colony. After consuming the bait, fire ants will appear lethargic or sick after 12-24 hours, and dead ants can be seen near mounds wirhin 24-36 hours after application.  To treat mounds directly, apply 4 tablespoons per mound evenly over the mound and about 2 feet around the mound.   To broadcast, apply 1/3 – 2/3 cups per 1,000 square feet.  Apply when ants are active.  See label for complete application instructions.  For best results, do not disturb mounds before, during, or after treatment.

    Great Product

    By Gladys on 05/04/2024

    Come and Take It works very well on the ants. "Come and take it" is a very appropriate name because the ants do literally "come and take it. I recommend the product for fire ants.

Q
Can this be used with a drop spreader? Have almost 2 acres with mounds every few feet, how much do I need?

Mountains of SC, mostly red clay soil. Super rainy winter caused erosion that Fire Ant's have taken advantage of.

A

Yes, Ferti-Lome Come and Get It! Fire Ant Killer II can be applied via a spreader but does not list settings on the label as it usually just sprinkled in cups measurements. For broadcast application the product states: Use 1/3 to 2/3 cup for each 1000 sq ft, or 3 to 6 cups per 10,000 sq ft, or 2.5 to 5 lb per acre. Use higher rates for heavier infestations, faster activity, and greater overall control.

Q
Is Ferti-Lome Come and Get It! Fire Ant Killer II safe to use around honey bees?
A

Ferti-Lome Come and Get It! Fire Ant Killer II is a granule bait that should not harm bees. It contains an attractant that will only attract fire ants. However, if the bees were to land on the product there is a risk that could affect them but not likely. We would advise keeping it away from where they are pollinating if possible to reduce the risk
