Product Overview
Maxforce FC Ant Bait Stations are all about fast control and secondary kill. Due to Fipronil and its accelerated Domino Effect kill, Maxforce Ant Bait Stations start to kill ants in just six hours. Tests show 90% population reductions in just four days for ants. This product is more of a protein based bait. We recommend using these bait stations along with a gel bait which is mostly a source of sugar, since ants could be in the mood for either protein or sugar. Gels and stations provide different dietary needs for ants. The ants may eat the gel, or bait stations, or both. And their diet may change frequently between gels and the bait stations. It is better to provide them with both for an optimum kill.

Maxforce Ant Bait Stations are all about fast control and secondary kill. Due to Fipronil and its accelerated Domino Effect kill, Maxforce Ant Bait Stations start to kill ants in just six hours. And tests show 90% population reductions in just four days for ants!
The bait formula is that irresistible, and works that fast.
Maxforce ant bait stations are also convenient and easy to use. The small ant bait station bags contain loose-packed single stations and are resealable to keep baits fresh and protected from contamination. Plus, the patented inspectable red station lids now have an additional feature: A debossed lid that's index welded to the base, creating even greater bait station integrity. And, the easy peel-and-stick adhesive makes application fast.
Tips for Use:
- Place Maxforce ant bait stations by ant trails and where ants have been seen.
- Three bait stations should control an average size room, or approximately one bait station per 100 square feet.
- Do not spray chemicals or disturb trails between ant nests and bait stations.
- Periodically, replace bait stations that are empty and relocate stations that show little or no ant activity.

We had ongoing ant problems in our home for years; our house is on a slab and they lived in the plumbing wall void in the center of the house. I tried many sessions of Terro Liquid Ant Killer, and tho…

Read Full Answer »The Maxforce FC Ant Bait stations are made so that you can see the bait faintly through the top plastic red covering. The stations should only be replaced if the bait inside is gone. Typically the stations are left out for at least 30 days or as long as needed until the bait is gone. Baiting is not an overnight process. Depending on colony size, baiting can take a few days to 3 to 4 weeks to kill an entire ant colony.QHow do I use Maxforce Ant Killer Bait Stations effectively?Received a shipment of MaxForce Ant Killer Bait Stations.

Read Full Answer »You are probably not doing anything wrong, but one thing to consider is that ants are very finicky eaters. They are either in the mood for protein/fats or sugar depending on what the colony needs. Maxforce FC Ant Stations are more of a protein/fat type of bait. The ants are probably looking for more of a sugar type bait right now. On our product description we do recommend using the stations along with the Maxforce FC Ant Bait Gel which is a sugar based bait. This way you have both to offer if they are in the mood for one over the other. If you would like to test this theory, you can place a spoonful of jelly on a piece of tin foil or paper next to one of the Maxforce FC Ant Stations. If they eat the jelly and not the station bait then they are in the mood for sugar, not protein.
