We had ongoing ant problems in our home for years; our house is on a slab and they lived in the plumbing wall void in the center of the house. I tried many sessions of Terro Liquid Ant Killer, and tho…

Needs some help to work
By Maureen in Orlando, FL on 07/08/2010
From reading up about getting rid of Pharaoh ants, it seemed Maxforce was the way to go. I was rather disappointed when the ants were walking right by the stations I put in various places they concent…

Worked great with some modification
By Patti in Clever, Missouri on 08/31/2010
I tried a couple of other things before purchasing the Maxforce FC Ant Bait Stations. I believe we had thielf ants and they were more attracted to the grease than to these traps. However, I tried what…

The only thing that works
By Ryan in Springfield, VA on 07/02/2010
These are the only bait traps that work for us. Some of these were given to us for use in the house by a pest control company a couple of years ago. We quit paying for the expensive service when we re…

Fastest acting
By Mike on 11/29/2006
Our office had a major ant (small ants) invasion and we called the local pest control company. We didn't want them to spray so they placed these Maxforce FC Ant Bait Stations throughout our office. Wi…

Disappointed
By Dale in Oxnard,California on 09/28/2016
I can't get the ants to go within a mile of the bait stations.I tried everything inside and outside. No luck!! Never seen anything like it. I should have bought some ant stakes at the grocery store. T…

Expert response:
We apologize you did not receive the expected results when using this product. As noted on the page, this product is more of a protein based bait. We recommend using these bait stations along with a gel bait which is mostly a source of sugar, since ants could be in the mood for either protein or sugar. Gels and stations provide different dietary needs for ants. The ants may eat the gel, or bait stations, or both. And their diet may change frequently between gels and the bait stations. It is better to provide them with both for an optimum kill.
Ghost or Crazy Ants

Ants were not attracted to this bait. Advion Ant Gel seems to be the answer for this type of ant!
Maxforce FC Bait Stations
By Ms in Stuart, FL on 01/28/2013
I have been using these for about a month to battle a Pharoah/ Thief ant problem. So far NOTHING goes near these baits. I have tried activating them with water, also with oil as this seems to have wor…

Max Force Bait Stations
By Renee in Dunedin, Florida on 07/22/2017
I do not think these bait stations are a good value. I placed them directly in the path of the pharaoh ants that were invading my kitchen and bathroom and the ants just avoided them taking little noti…

Not so good
By Dave in Albuquerque, New Mexico on 09/03/2017
These contain a dense material that is just not attractive to the ants I have. Stated to be for protein-seeking ants, which I have. Usually on baits like these, if the ants won't take it, I can open t…

I have been using max force bait traps for over 5 years and actually have come to depend on them. I wouldn't hesitate to pass this product along to any of my friends.

Bait stations
By Sandra in Venice Fl on 03/08/2016
Did not work at all. No ants came to them. Bought some Terro liquid ant baits and we had lots of ants coming and eating it. A lot of dead ones also. Would not buy again.

What you saw was normal for ants since their nutritional needs change and baits are a food source. We suggest hanging on to the bait and using them if you see ants in the future.

ULTRA SMALL CRAZY ANTS
By John in Cape Coral, FL on 12/05/2016
Maxforce worked on a large group of small crazy ants outdoors but not on the ultra small group indoors. They may be too small or smart to get into the bait box. They are about one forth the size of a …

Thank you for your comments! You should not open Maxforce or other similar ant bait stations. We sell many other baits in different formulations that can be used for crazy ants. These ants can be very aggressive and prolific, so it is usually necessary to use multiple products in conjunction to control them. We sell a great Crazy Ant Kit that contains Termidor SC, Invict Blitz bait granules, and CimeXa Dust. Maxforce Quantum is an excellent sweet bait that can be used inside or outside, as well. Please let us know if we can further assist you. http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/rasberry-carribean-crazy-ant-kit-p-3486.html http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/maxforce-quantum-ant-bait-p-1884.html
Not effective

Useless
By John in Miami, FL on 04/10/2010
These might work better with other ants, but the sugar ants ran by them as if they were not there. I don't doubt these things work well in some applications, but we cleaned the hell out of the kitchen…

My Ants from Hell

Bad taste?
By Anonymous in San Diego, CA on 06/10/2013
I'm in San Diego and the Argentine ants love the residue they find around the kitchen, but have zero interest in this bait.
Didn't work
By Jason in Cupertino, CA on 10/05/2015
The ants won't use these baits. They go right past them for the Terro baits. The real bad news is that they seem to thrive of the Terro baits worth no ill affect. It's been this way for about a month.…

Expert response:
We are sorry to hear the this product did not work up to your expectations. These stations are protein based and will not work with ants that are foraging for liquids or sugar based food items. As you have noticed, they are going to the sugar based bait at this time. We would highly recommend that you consider using the Maxforce FC Ant Bait Gel in conjunction with the stations so you can get complete control as the ants nutritional needs may change at any time. Please take a few moments to read over our Ant Treatment Guide to learn more about implementing a successful ant control program: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-ants-a-462.html

Did not work for me
By Heather in scituate ma on 03/27/2020
Unfortunately, this did not work for me. The ants aren't interested in the bait. So frustrating. I wish there was a product that gave multiple types to bait stations so you'd be sure lure them.
Absolutely USELESS!

Ants dont go near them. Three mths and nothing. My review must be longer than 50 characters it states? OK- useless useless useless useless
Doesn't State It Works on Carpenter Ants

The website states it kills Carpenter ants. The package doesn't list it will kill Carpenter ants.
