The Maxforce Carpenter Ant Bait Gel can be refrigerated if it gets to thin (this will help get it back to a gel consistency) in transit especially in the hot summer months. It should be stored in a cool, dry place to maintain effectiveness.
Maxforce Carpenter Ant Bait Gel is specially formulated for carpenter ants. However, this product has been discontinued and replaced with a product called Maxforce Fleet, which is labeled for a variety of ants.
Carpenter ants will typically infest wood that has come into contact with excess moisture from a leak or sweating pipes. Please see our guide here for tips and information on how to inspect, treat and prevent these pests.
