Customer Reviews for Maxforce Complete Granular Bait

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.

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.

Not really sure what to rate it... I had large black ants under the carpet in the living room. Put some bait down, put the carpet back down.... check about a week later, no ants... but still plenty of bait... bait that I have laid outside around the home in various places show no activity, or diminished amounts... so I am not real sure what to think or what to rate it... small ants seem to ignore it... I am not sure if it is the bait, or just a change in the weather that drove them out... it is odd... I had also bought another brand from a local store...same story... so I just don't know what to attribute to the bait. But I am glad the ants don't seem to be around. After they were gone, I also laid down some Raid, just to keep them out of there... but they are probably somewhere else in the home too... but it is really hard for me to check everywhere...

Applied granules per instructions on the ant beds, with excellent results. I will have to observe for the longer term and will add to my review at that time.

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.

My ants love this stuff. They hauled it off and I haven't seen them since. I don't miss them at all. If they come back I will just offer them more to take home with them.

I had bull ants in the house. Since I used the Maxforce I have seen fewer. The product was as advertised and came within a week. I would by from DoMyOwn again.

Always wondered why sugar ants weren't eating my ant bait which they almost always did. The DoMyOwn told me they probably where pharo ants which it turns out they were. They were always in my dog's food. I sprinkled Maxforce around the perimeter and adios ants.

Maxforce works as advertised. Used this product on very active ant hills in my lawn and within a couple of days no more pests. Great product. A+

I originally purchased this based on the reviews and the many types of ants it would control. My yard is approximately 1 1/2 acres. Surrounding that yard is pasture (mesquites, some cactus and various types of grass). I've seen Carpenter, Crazy, Fire, Pharaoh, and Pyramid ants. Most of these I've had under control with the exception of the Pyramid ants. They were taking over most of my cactus garden and the east side of the edge of my yard (Bermuda and Buffalo grass). Probably at least 40 to 50 mounds. I used Maxforce Complete Granular Bait in all of those areas. It looked like the granules would be to large for the ants since they were so small, but I already made the purchase so I might as well give it a try. The next day I went to check the areas and there was no difference. It looked as though they had only taken some of the bait. Great, I wasted my money on one that didn't work. During the next week there was rain off and on with a total of about 3". I knew the Pyramid ants would be everywhere. After it had some time to dry, I checked the treated areas and I couldn't believe it. I saw maybe 3 or 4 Pyramid ants in the entire area. No mounds. Unbelievable, apparently the ants were killed and the mounds washed away. I'm very impressed with how well this worked and will certainly be purchasing more. Thanks!

If you are looking for a bait that works. Something instead of the stuff in all the big box stores that does not work. Then I would recommend this bait for all outdoor uses

Placed the Granular bait in areas around the homes perimeter in ant hill infested areas. By morning it was apparent that the ants had taken the bait. Had to treat one specific area a second time a week later and noticed a major drop in ant activity around the homes perimeter with 5 weeks.

Apparently ants love this bait. I put it on and around the hill and they carried away the bait each day... 3 days and the hill (42" in circumference) was vacated!

We tried several pest control companies to get rid of Palmetto bugs (big roaches). They would put out traps and spray inside the house, but we would still average seeing one or two dead Palmettos per week. Occasionally even a live one inside. I ordered Maxforce Complete, applied it around the perimeter of the house and literally overnight the Palmettos have disappeared. No dead ones, no live ones. Used to see them on our deck at night, no longer. I'm sold!!!

1) This product worked immediately. Less than 24 hours, I began to see dying cockroaches. It took care of the problem quick. 2) The only downside is you have to reapply it every 2-3 weeks. Not really a downside, but just wanted to throw that out there.

We live in the Mojave Desert, which is as good as it gets if you're an ant looking for a place to live. Large red ants had taken over the back yard and started appearing out front of the house as well. All previous attempts to eradicate them; burning, digging up and spraying, Borax, gasoline down the hole-failed. They would disappear for a bit then come back. I ordered some of this stuff and it arrived very quickly. Sprinkled some around each of the mounds in the backyard and placed a small amount out in front where i had seen them running around. Before all of the granules had hit the ground they started carrying them down the hole. Immediately. I came back to check on them about an hour later and was delighted to see a full-fledged supply train going down the holes. I had never used a dedicated ant poison on them before and couldn't help thinking the surprise was going to kill them! Next morning they were ALL GONE. Not a one was seen anywhere. Very impressed with this product.

I've used this on two fire ant mounds now, and it's been successful at eliminating any activity at those locations. Takes a few days, but seems to work well.

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.

Like many, I've tried all the home store solutions but nothing worked. Seriously, it did nothing. But Maxforce? Ants were dwindling by the next morning and totally gone by that evening. This stuff is phenomenal and does exactly what they say it does. Don't waste your money on anything else. I live in Phoenix and trust me, critters here can stand up to a lot of things. But they can't stand up to Maxforce.

Purchased this specifically for a few Harvester Ant mounds which are close to the house (within ~200 ft) so within their cover range. Applied a ring of this bait about a foot outside of the mound openings a day later all bait gone (assumed it was taken into the nest). About a week later no mound activity. Worked great. The shaker opening does not let a lot of bait drop so used the larger opening and it worked well. Only did 3 mounds. The remaining mounds far out in the pasture can stay as these are beneficial, just did not want them living in the house.

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.

I Ordered the granular bait which works great for any ant problems. Also, product arrived quickly, within a couple of days and no shipping fees. I would highly recommend business. I also get all my pest control productss from here, with the same quick service every time and great prices.

Pharaoh and carpenter ants in the yard may be well dealt with using this product. The lower cost from this supplier mad it a little better deal since it is effective but high cost item.
