Product Overview

InTice 10 Perimeter Bait is a broad spectrum granular bait with 10% boric acid. The specialized bait matrix contains two oils, protein and a carbohydrate, for broad spectrum acceptance and control. The increased amount of boric acid cuts the application rate in half and makes InTice 10 the most economical bait on the market. It is ideal for turf uses because only one pound per 1,000 square feet is needed to control a wide variety of crawling pests. A single application will last up to 90 days outdoors. InTice 10 is perfect for treating perimeters for quarterly service. Unlike repellent insecticide granules, InTice 10 doesn’t just chase pests away - they eat it and die. Ants pick the bait up and take it back to the nest to feed to the colony, solving the problem at the source. Also, with its combination of boric acid and natural food ingredients, InTice 10 is an excellent green solution.

    minimal contamination, excellent control

    By Patricia on 04/05/2017

    This boric acid based bait is my standby for stopping incursions of a wide range of insects and arthropods into the house. It is water resistant, long lasting, works very well for cockroaches, wood lice, ants, and other crawling pests. The active ingredient, Orthoboric Acid, is as near harmless to mammals as it could get -- cats, dogs, or people would have to eat it by the spoonful to get any toxic reaction at all, and its half-life in humans is in range of 12-27 hours. Great for perimeter treatments two or three times a year.

    Works on Oriental roaches

    By Brooks on 10/06/2015

    Just bought a house. 2nd night we figured out our yard was infested with roaches. Got the 10 pound bag. Sprayed the bait using a hand held turf spreader. Noticed half of the roaches were dead in about 2 days. Then they would halve every day after that. Took about 3 weeks and roaches are gone. I've noticed some hold outs near the street where i did not spray bait. I have enough left over to spray hold outs and re apply near the house. Good stuff!

Q
Works on big headed ants?

I'm in South Florida and big headed ants are a huge problem. Will they be attracted to this bait? I've been using a bait with abamectin but it is getting very expensive. Is Intice an effective alternative?

A

InTice 10 Perimeter Bait can be used on big-headed ants as long as they are actively foraging.

Q
Is InTice 10 Perimeter Bait good for twig ants?
A

Elongate twig ants are considered beneficial insects so there is not a product that is specifically labeled for this insect species. They offer control of other pests on the property.  We do recommend trimming back bushes and trees, remove any decaying limbs etc. We also suggest checking any potted indoor plants also any plants brought indoors. This species is mainly found outdoors. You can check with your cooperative extension office  for effective product options.

Q
Can a residual insecticide (Avesta, Cyzmic CS, Demand CS) be applied to the perimeter of my home if InTice 10 Perimeter Bait was put down last week? Will spraying an insecticide contaminate the bait?
A

Spraying an insecticide over areas where you applied InTice 10 Perimeter Bait would contaminate the bait rendering it to be ineffective. 

You will need to wait atleast 7 days after the Intice 10 Perimeter Bait was applied to treat the exterior perimeter foundation of the home. If wanting to continue also using the bait, start the periemter band where your spray application stops out from the foundation.

Q
Will InTice 10 Perimeter Bait kill springtails?

Is there a rare but parasitic form of these hexapods?

A

InTice 10 Perimeter Bait is not labeled for springtails and would not be recommended due to their feeding habits. Springtails are not parasites and are not known to infest living human tissue. These insects are small arthropods that are beneficial and harmless to humans and pets. Springtails do not bite, sting, damage households and feed off organic matter, decaying plant material, fungi, molds, or algae. While they typically originate outdoors, they can be found in moist indoor areas such as kitchen sinks, bathtubs, and in the soil of houseplants

The key to eliminating springtails is finding their nesting site which will be somewhere damp and dark, they cannot tolerate dry conditions. Without locating the nest, the use of an insetcide or dust is going to be ineffective to eliminate Springtails. 

View our Springtail Control Products as well as our Springtail Inspection Guide and Treatment Guide for helpful step by step treatment information and product recommendations.
