Customer Reviews for Maxforce Complete Granular Bait

This is amazing stuff, I have been trying for years with NO luck! I put just a small amount out because it was going to rain next day, I was so surprisec to find so many dead ants. I will put more out after the rain.

4 acres of land and is the only thing that keeps them away.

Applied in two week intervals for six weeks. The carpenter ants just walk all over it and never pick it up. The label lists carpenter ants as one of the target ants.

Product worked great, dispersed product around the mounds in lawn area. Ants are gone. Still have plenty of product left for future use.

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 had recently had some repairs done to my apartment roof and walls which required that portions of both had to be torn down and replaced. Unfortunately, this action allowed, what appeared to be millions of roaches to invade and inhabit my apartment. None of the sprays I bought seemed to make any significant reduction in the roach population (they could be seen everywhere at anytime). Thus, I had to up the ante and I ordered Maxforce. After being surprised that the package arrived the next day, I was even more astonished that within two days, the roach sighting were only sporadic. Now, it's been three weeks and the roaches are gone! While, I do still see an occasional straggler/survivor once or twice a day, it's clear that they are slowly dying too. I am absolutely satisfied!!

First time using this bait on small black ants that have trails all over my yard, sidewalks, and going up gutters. I sprinkled some in several places according to instructions. This stuff really works great! Within hours no ants were visible where I applied. Went through the remaining container and applied it to several other spots. About to order more!

I have been using BASF Advance 375A Granular Ant Bait (in combination with a sweet liquid) for several years with good success, except for 2 nests which got wise to the 375A ; it was no longer effective on these two colonies. And they both got massive (Argentine Ants). I bought this as it contains both a protein and a sweet carb in one bait. One application and both nests are dead, not one single ant nor fresh soil frass from the entry(s). I highly recommend this bait especially if your ants have figured out not to eat your current bait.

The ants walked around this bait. They did not touch it. They were small black ants, some had tiny wings and could not fly very well.

I started seeing ants around my apartment. They died within a few days. Seriously. Awesome stuff.

I've had problems with big headed ants making large dirt piles all over my lawn. In the past, I took a landscapers advice and bought Amdro from Home Depot. I used it for over 10 years and it always worked. This year it didn't work. So I know anything made by Bayer that's not sold in stores will work, and it did. Just use as directed. It's a small amount for the money, but you don't have to use much. I had many areas to do and I didn't finish the container.

This stuff is magic. I wasted so much money at the big box stores and their products and trying them multiple times. Randomly came across this and it was exactly what I'd been looking for. Sprinkled this down around my backyard which was a mess with all the little ant hills and within days everything had disappeared and even after they were gone nothing came back. Highly recommend and would definitely use again. Great product.

Works great on ordinary ants, fire ants but dies absolutely nothing to leaf cutter ants!

Excellent product! Does what it says! Very satisfied!

It was not very popular with the ants. I thought it would work better than the Terro liquid bait, which seemed to attract sweet seeking ants, and was not as effective as it was last season. The ants were even less interested in the granules. It is easy to apply, however.

This protein product was recommended but apparently it was not the right time to attract the ants attention. They showed no interest.

I have tried other products to no avail. So I decided to try this. I could not believe it. Overnight it got rid of all the big headed ants infesting inside and outside of my house without spending a fortune with an exterminator. I am so happy You have no idea. My pet foods were always full of ants. No more! The only problem is the pets seem to like it so when you apply the granules be aware they will lick it. Too tiny to cause harm, but it could. So I had to apply in sections with a barrier to let the ants carry it back to the hive. Overnight!!!! No more ants. I do not like using pesticides, but this can be applied to sections where you see the ants.

After talking to a knowledgeable customer service rep about which product to use (depending on the type of ant), we bought the protein based granules. They worked great. No ants after 2 days and so far none since.

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

I sprinkled the Maxforce on a path about one foot deep all around the outside perimeter of my back porch. Three days later, not an ant to be seen. Thank you MAXFORCE!

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

I used this on big ant "colonies" in our yard. Sprinkled this around the colony 3x in one week and they were gone! Super happy with this product and will keep it as a staples for our yard care.

I sprinkled some of this on the mound and all ant activity was gone the next day. They have not returned in 3 weeks. It worked for me. Pricey but worth it.

I reside in Southern Louisiana, where Fire Ants are a Nemis in this State, I tried a lot of products from Home Depot and Lowe's, didn't work !! Maxforce is the Truth, it may take multiple applications for about 2 to 4 weeks .. But my back yard and trees are free from those Aliens from South America!!

The only bait I have found that works as advertised on the smaller types of ants I have in my yard. I've watched those suckers immediately haul this into the nest and 24 -48 hours later the place is a ghost town. ..,zero activity. Very thankful to have Max force available.

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!
