Customer Reviews for Maxforce Complete Granular Bait

I used this product in the dual-compartment bait stations along with the gel bait. "My" ants went more for the gel bait, but in any case the ants are gone and the bait is supposed to be good for up to 2 years in its sealed container. This bait does "jump" onto the plastic bait station lids due to static electricity, making it difficult to close the bait stations.

Did not work for our carpenter ants that made huge nests from insulation between logs in our cabin. Liquid Tetra worked great and much much cheaper. Lesson learned not to buy huge quantities like this until you know it will work but we were panicked and desperate.

I had the earlier version of Max Force ant bait. It looked somewhat like finely ground coffee grounds. It worked great. One small teaspoon or the bait and the ants would take it back to the nest and poof the nest would die. This new ant bait is too large for the ants to pick up and doesn't do anything. Thanks for nothing!

Didn't work for me? I wish it did seeing such great reviews from so many people and the wholesaler recommended this and the three things to kill ants. I didn't even get 5% kill rate and I waited 1-2+ to say that

At first the application brought thousands more ants than we were already having, but I expected this. Now, it is two weeks later, and after two more applications, we are still having the ant problem. I placed them inside and outside the house. I know there is improvement, but now I've used up all the bait. My next move will be to go ahead and call the professionals in.

The ant infestation is now gone. I don't know if this is thanks to the Demand CS treatment or a half teaspoonful of Maxforce Bait. The granules seem too large for the treatment of sugar ants. A strategic 1/4 teaspoon application goes a long way.

Got this for large ants and saw many march by this bait without slowing down. Boron sugar still helps with ants. Have seen fewer silverfish, so it may be helping with them.

Purchased this based on previous reviews regarding large tree roaches. We live in Austin and our home is surrounded by a lot of trees AND a neighbor who has a dilapidated rotting shed right behind our fence (rodent heaven). We were using a professional pest control, have inside and outside and full yard spray and they were still coming in. I don't know if it's a combination of spray (also purchased from domyown) and using this bait, all I know is that we've had a streak of 100+ Austin days and (knock on wood) haven't seen a large roach in the house. Strangely, haven't seen any dead ones- maybe they die outside where I can't see them, which is a bonus. We follow the directions and have 2 dogs and it seems to be great.

Maxforce Complete Granular Bait is very good bait kill roaches and to get rid of the roach infestation. I really recommend this to anybody that is has roach infestation in their homes or business. Its a very effective product that does work. It's been a couple of weeks since I used this product and there hasn't been more roaches thanks to to this wonderful bait. Buy this product if you need it and I promise you won't regret it. I'm planning on buying more to have it on stock at home just in case I ever need it.

I bought Maxforce FC Ant Bait Gel and Maxforce Complete Granula Bait and tied them side by side in one of the plastic receptacles that they sell. I have two types of ants, small sugar ants and medium size black ants, not carpenter ants. The ants were not at all interested in the bait. I refreshed the bait to make sure it was fresh but no ants. I took some unused plastic bait traps and poured liquid Advance Liquid Ant Bait that I bought from DoMYOwn and it worked great. Both type ants were attracted to it and it wiped them out. My recommendation is to skip the Gel and Granula Bait and use their liquid Bait.

I received my order within two days, which is awesome. The product itself cleared out my Argentine ants within three days. It's been over a week and still no ants. I highly recommend this for Argentine ants.

In the past I used the Maxforce product that was replaced with this new formula. Being as I was completely satisfied with the old product, I was hoping the replacement would be equally as effective. AND it is! Have shared this product with several of my friends. All (including myself)are now ant free!

I have used this product for many years, it is the best of type I have found. It is easy to use by sprinkling a small amount over an ant bed r around the foundation of your home. I use to buy it in the small shakers but found this quantity at a better price value. It will kill the ants in just a few days. They feed on it and it gets them all. Great product and great price here. I usually use less than about 8 oz. a year per 1/2 acre of land.

Threw some up in the attic 2 weeks ago and haven't seen a single live ant in 10 days. I tested to see if the ant's will take it with a single carpenter ant I found outside. He was on my wood fence..I dropped 1 piece of granule in his path...he stopped at it...smelt it and picked it up and turned back around!!! Lol. So I know this stuff tastes good to them. If it worked I didn't know then, but now I know IT DOES. It had to because I keep finding them dead around the house and on my window sills. Thank god for this stuff I couldn't sleep, I had anxiety and all I did was be on the look out for ant's. Now I can relax and enjoy our new home

So far not very impressed with this stuff. I've sprinkled it around and over active nests and it's not doing much. Ants are still coming and going. some are even carrying the stuff with them. Maybe they are taking it down into the nest and it will kill all of them over time but so far not much is happening.

It does work, but so far I've experienced incomplete eradication. The ants that were in my fig and orange tree seem to be gone. The ants that were walking around the bathroom on the first floor of my house seem to be gone too. However, I still have ants in the kitchen on the second floor. Yesterday I set out some more of these granules. Only time will tell if the bait gets rid of my upstairs ants.

I have put this out for about two weeks now. Small black ants. I have watched the ants just walk over and around this stuff. It has done nothing except waste my money. The only creatures to consume this stuff are the raccoons. Not even sure it made them sick. Very disappointing.

Love the Quantum Ant Bait gel but the granules do not seem to work at all.

Argentine ants that will eat anything and everything don't show much interest in this bait.

Carpenter ants ignored it and I even tested it up with protein-like food so that I could tell if ants are looking for protein and they went for the food instead of this bait. Not sure if this bait works for other ants but surely didn't work for me.

I don't use the product as a barrier around my house, because I currently use Bifen IT as my barrier product, so I only use this to control outside ants at their mound. But, Maxforce complete works great on other ants that are not even on the label!!! I had one or two fire ant mounds, but my biggest problem in my part of Florida is pyramid ants. Although pyramid ants are not listed on the label, Maxforce Complete knocked them all dead in a day or two! I have only one regret. I should have ordered 2-8 oz bottles to save money!

Like the title claims. After years of battling these little pests my issue was nuked in 24 hours. I simply allowed them to eat, eat, eat. A sprinkle did it, I then went outside and did the same. Just one question, however, any products for ex-wives? It is not cheap so I was expecting instant success. It will surely outlast Amdro, which ants eat and crap it out.

I moved my mom in a place and found out later on it had bugs. Then I got bugs to. But this stuff got rid of all the bugs. Bow thats nice. No more morning bugs. I would had to pay $100.00's to get rid of them but this stuff got rid of me and my mom's bugs for $18.00 now thats a savings..

I have Maxforce Complete Granular for about 3-years. Primary target pest is southern and red imported fire ants. I also use it for American cockroach control outdoors. It has performed to my expectations as have other Maxforce products.

This stuff is great. I put it around the anthill and at first it looked as if they were ignoring it. Within the he next few days the bait was all gone and so were the ants. unbelievable. I love it.

I live in Central Florida and had a problem with Big Headed ants in the house. They congregated around the cat food and we have tried multiple things to get rid of them, even Terro 1% Ant Bait Stations. Nothing worked for these stubborn ants. I tried Maxforce Complete and it worked. I even sprinkled this stuff on ant mounds in the yard and the ants immediately started bringing the bait into the mound. Inside the house I put the Maxforce in the Bait Plate Stations and placed the stations near where the ants were congregating. After a few days, the ants were all gone. It has been almost 2 months now and we are still ant free. I would recommend this product to any one. After ordering through DoMyOwnPest control, my product arrived so fast that I suprised to receive it that quickly. At about $27 my ant problem is totally controlled :)

I have using Max Force for years. I just purchased another bottle and sprinkled it around the exterior of my house on sunday.This morning I had a thousand legged spider and he wasn't moving. My married children ask me to go to their homes and put the powder around their homes. I mentioned it to a few friends and they purchased the product also. Love the product.

I had a stream of carpenter ants every night crawling on my cement driveway and up my foundation. I sprinkled some Maxforce Complete (it's important to do it before they appear at dusk), and after a few days I saw only a random ant or two. I also had a problem with palmetto bugs (basically super sized roaches) in my garage. I've been sprinkling some Complete on my work bench every night and they're showing up on their backs in the morning.

By the time I realized what was going on I had carpenter ants infesting my roof and were now entering the house. I tried spraying, killed some but were back the next day. I bought the granular and the gel. It looked like they did not eat too much, but the very next day all the ants I saw were either dead or punch drunk. 5 days later not an ant to be seen. The shipping was very fast also.

I used this in addition to Bug be gone granular. Still a few mounds but I believe this helped. Thanks Do my own.
