Customer Reviews for Maxforce Complete Granular Bait

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.

Great long term control of ants. I use this bait everywhere and within a few days ants are gone. In AZ with a pool, irrigation, and lots of backyard BBQs ants are prevalent and this stuff does the trick. Seems to be safe for pets and children too when applied appropriately.

We have had a prolonged period of Spring rains and the ants came marching into the kitchen and began to swarm. I used the Max Force Complete granular bait along the edge of the counter where there was the small opening they used to get into the kitchen. They took the bait and I could see where it had been taken, as he amount got smaller. They must be dead now since the amount of bait left remains the same. I have not seen any more ants in my kitchen. This works! I plan to keep this on hand and use it if another wave of ants decides to come inside. I know now that I can use this bait outside, as well. I like doing business with this company. My husband and I have used this company before.

I bought the Maxforce Complete granular as an all purpose, but based on reading reviews, etc. I also bought the Ant Base gel and the Advance 375 because, to be honest, I feared the MaxforceComplete might not do the job. I tracked the ants to locate the dens and then sprinkled a bit of the Maxforce Complete around the three ant dens that were hidden beneath the layer of rocks in my AZ landscaping. Next day, no ants anywhere. It's been two weeks and still no ants, so the Maxforce Complete did the job. My gel bait and Advance 375 still sit in my garage, unopened. For my problem, Maxfoce Complete did the job. If only it could take out pesky 13 stripe ground squirrels that quickly.

Great price, quick shipping, and a great product. This stuff works great on the fire ant mounds on my property and it only takes a little (1 or 2 tbsp per mound). This 4 lb. jug will last me years.

So far I am impressed. I sprinkle a little of this over new ant beds and a few days later there are no ants. I hope to rid all of the ants from my lawn. So far 3 ant beds are gone. Note: I don't know what kind of ants I have but it has killed them. Well worth the money spent.

I have used other products but nothing matches this. The nice thing is they take it back to their nest and it kills others. I have used it for the past couple of year's and it really works

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.

I have used this product for several years to control ants in the Florida sand. When I spot a new hill, I sprinkle on some MAXFORCE and they are gone the following day.

I live in central FL and have had ghost ant problems off and on for some time now. In the past I have used bait gels(388b advance and advion). 388b did a okay job but ants come back, Advion ants loved. I feed them every day for about a mouth, they would swarm this bait and come every day for more.so I got Maxforce Ants ignored it.so i mixed it with Advion. Seemed to work a little bit. I know the theory of get the queen and the colony dies. I have also read how ghost ants can and will split the colony and come up with another queen when necessary. It was time to get serious.I got a spray, PT Phantom. Used it where ever they were trailing and into the cracks I found them going into. Killed them dead on contact. As I would spray they would come out some other crack. I continued chasing them around for several days.Would also find them dead the next day. Thought I had all of them gone. I guess the eggs hatched 3 or 4 days later so went after them again. I think i have finely have won the war after many battles.

This is great stuff and a little goes a long way.

The granules seem to be large for the ants that are attacking our home... Back to the drawing board.

  Expert response:
Maxforce Complete Granules do a variety of sized granules in each container. The ants you are treating may be seeking sweets, so it is always a good idea to have a liquid or gel bait on hand. The items in our Indoor Ant Kit are great choices for most common ants indoors: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/indoor-ant-kit-p-14501.html

Had a bad infestation around trees and flower bed. Set bait out and ants were on it the next day. Would highly recommend this product for control. Had a heavy infestation and I applied it every week(Is like honey to them). Easy to apply. Would purchase again.

Works pretty good on smaller nests. Have a huge nest in the back yard that I am applying the bait for a third time.

I had a serious ant problem in my home that I was battling unsuccessfully with Terro liquid. After some research I decided to try Maxforce Complete Granular Bait. Within a few days of application 100% of the ants were gone! As of today (approximately 6 weeks later) there is no sign of any ants returning. Highly recommended!

Had used this product once before and it rid the house (mostly) of camel and regular black crickets. Then I ran out and had a hard time finding a new source. Very happy to get it at domyownpestcontrol.com. Expensive stuff, but a little goes a long way and it does the job.

The product works wonderfully. I must say that I was impressed that the company went above and beyond to ensure I received the product in good condition, after the USPS semi-destroyed the first shipment. Very satisfied.

My pest control guy has refused to do baiting for our roach problem, insisting that sprays were the best solution. Not so according to most of the university extension services. So I bought this bait after researching other products. After putting this bait in some trouble areas and around the home, we have seen zero roaches in the house - after averaging two-three a day. Excellent product, and we fired out pest guy.

This really works. Good results within 12 hours. Some beds, when large, needed second treatment, but these were really large beds. Will order more soon for next year.

I've used Maxforce Complete to combat our Odorous ant problem. As any experienced ant hunter can attest, initial results can be misleading, but after about a month of baiting I can say the population does seem to have suffered a setback, however careful placement of bait is essential. Areas of our house that are baited see only a few scouts, unbaited areas continue to struggle with pest ants. I'm hoping over time the entire house will be clear, but cautious optimism is prudent at this stage. In closing, Maxforce Complete didn't turn out to be the "ant napalm" I was hoping it would be, but it's definitely having a greater impact than any other poison I've tried, and I've tried them all.

I don't generally leave reviews, least of all for ant baits, but I felt I had to for this. We bought a house last winter, and as it got closer to summer and the weather started heating up, the ants started multiplying. Pretty soon we were under attack. They were everywhere, inside the house and out. We tried all the sprays and syrup poisons, but it just seemed to make the problem worse. Then I bought a container of this stuff and sprinkled it outside wherever I saw lines of ants. I checked it out 12 hours later, and it didn't seem like anything was happening. I couldn't even tell if the ants were taking it. Then 24 hours later... all of the ants were gone! It's been a month, now, and we went from spraying gallons of ant poison all over the place for months and still having ants on every surface of our entire house, to just sprinkling a bit of these granules in key places and just one day later, not seeing a single ant anywhere. This stuff is amazing and I highly recommend it.

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 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.

This stuff worked great on getting rid of the big headed ants that nothing else worked on--we had bought some ant killer from Home Depot and it did nothing--but in two weeks we were finding piles of dead ants along the baseboards--we found a few dead roaches as well--we got several uses out of it as well.

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 bought this before in the small jar. I was so happy with how it worked I ordered it again. This larger jug was a better value or so I thought. We have applied to several areas for treatment of ants and it has not even slowed them down. Won't purchase it again.
