structure ants - Immediate results
By Robert on 09/19/2023
This bait performed perfectly! We had ants along an interior beam line. I put bait on the beam line bracketing the infestation and in two perpendicular locations. All baits were injected through 5/32" drilled holes. It was like a bomb went off, ants everywhere for three days an then never to be seen. This is a good, effective product and when it returns to stock it should be of fresh manufacture with maximum effect.
Fast acting ant-magnet

I got this and Invict Blitz for crazy ants. The Invict Blitz is supposed to be an all-in-one granule, really I think its more of a protein bait. Optigard is a sugar bait. The ants are usually interested in the Invict, but not always; but they take Optigard every single time. If you have to choose just one, get Optigard. If you spot a stray ant or two on your countertop, leave a small line and you'll have a swarm in 20 minutes. Then at the end of the day the ants are gone. A little goes a long way so the high cost is worth it.
This ant bait really does work!!

I had from 2 to 12 ghost ants in my pillbox, daily. I thought they were after fish gel caps. I removed the gel caps, but the ants remained. That is when I bought Optigard Ant Gel Bait. As I live and breath, the ants were gone in two days! I put the gel caps back in the pillbox and two weeks later - NO ANTS. I have left the Optigard on guard around the pillbox just in case they try again. Optigard really does work!
Still seeing ants after 3 weeks

Best stuff on the market for DRAs
By Garth on 05/03/2024
I use this almost exclusively on Dark Rover Ants ( Brachymyrmex patagonicus Mayr, vile little b@stards...). On advise from an old flame who got her Ph'd in Entomology I use this chemical mixed with a strong simple syrup to create a bait that will wipe them out in a day or two. It has about an 90-95% acceptance and kill rate. Not even Termidor has that high a percentage. The baits from other companies don't even come close and I have personally observed the ants picking up the wounded and dying to rip open later for brunch. Highly recommended.
I thought it was going to be to good to be true

Ant party starts when this is served
By Darren on 06/28/2024
I have been using this for 4 years now and most of the ants around my SW FL homes love it! Ghost ants and crazy ants are always invading homes here. So any time I see an active trail of ants I run for my tube of Optigard and serve them a feast along their trail in multiple locations. Within minutes they horde around it to feed and bring it back to the nest. Usually they are gone within a day or two. If not, I treat the area again. The tubes are convenient for dispensing and they don't leak if you keep the cap on. The product is colorless and just thick enough to stay put on most surfaces. I have used it outside and inside with success. It can be washed away in rain or cleaning, but the price is reasonable for a 4 pack of tubes and it doesn't take much to treat an ant problem. Great product!
Best for ghost ants
By Anthony on 10/18/2024
I worked for a pest control company here in South Florida and I have found this to be the absolute best option for getting rid of ghost ants. We all know while living in Florida we'll never fully get rid of pests, but when using this stuff they're gone within hours. This product feeds the ants to take back and feed the queen which once she's dead the whole colony disappears.
Fantastic

Works perfectly!

During some really high temperatures ants kept finding trails into the house....especially in the kitchen. A building inspector I know from work gave me a tube. I had tried everything but they always came back. I put some gel on the baseboards and near places i saw them. I swear i looked down the next day and they were gone. Then out the corner of my eye i saw one stray near the ceiling. I look up and ants were either at the top of the wall or on the ceiling...! The gel scared them and they wouldn't come anywhere near it. After we got rid of the few strays...placed gel around the entire door sill...I have not seen a single ant. Not even in the kitchen. Amazing stuff!

Ants, ants, go away.....
By Johannus on 08/03/2018
This stuff is great! I don't know the species of ant that caused my issue but they constantly came up through slab foundations of my properties. They persisted through treatments with products from the big box home improvement stores and even through a professional exterminator treatment. I finally spoke to a super helpful exterminator who was to busy to treat my place BUT suggested this stuff. He said it's the same product he uses so I gave it a try. The ant population was reduced dramatically within a few days. After a second treatment, there were just a few here and my tenant was happy again. All of the buildings in this neighborhood are on slab so I think ants are endemic. Most recently, I used it at my house on a colony that was destroying my slate patio and beginning to enter the house. I squirted a strip near their nest entrance and they were gone the next day. I haven't seen one on the patio or in the house since.

Taking care of Ants in the house
By Gary on 07/12/2019
These nests were probably in the wall. Within an hour the gatherers were on the small dab of gel. The next morning not a trace. Even the few dead that overdosed had been removed from the bait area. In my case all 3 areas were a 24 hour kill. One was under the kitchen sink area, another under the sink in the master bath area and the last in a garage cabinet. I used the gel outside at he base on an Oleander tree that was covered in Ants. Re applied the gel on the second day and that finished off what appeared to be a vast nest. Used it outdoors a second time and no trace of Ants 24 hours later. I have yet to use the 4 pack I purchased from you. The original syringe was given to me by a generous owner of our local pest control business to hold off my invasion till his technician could do a light exterior treatment with Termador. He also said those two products reshaped the pest control business Nationwide regarding Ants and Sub Termites. Double Thumbs Up.
Buy It!

Keep up with it!
By Beth on 10/04/2019
This has worked very well for me both in door and out door. The ants do like it fresh rather than dried out so I put a small amount often as I had a huge number of ants. When I had exterminators come to the house they used something that killed all living things which really wasn't necessary. This does appear to target the ants only. Just keep up with small amounts consistently.
Great product

Really really good stuff !!
By Trevor on 04/22/2020
Every Spring we get these little black ants in our kitchen. We've tried damn near everything to get rid of them and nothing was effective. At night after supper I put three small, approx .5 inch, strips around my sink. The next morning they were all gone and we haven't seen an ant since. Yes It's a little pricey but it works!!
The ants "ant" got a chance with Optigard
By David on 05/29/2020
Optigard is the best treatment for ants I've ever used. I have gotten rid of them strolling around my pool deck and even after they found a way to enter my house. Takes a few days for them to disappear once they've transferred the Gel to one another, but works and easy to apply.
Ants EVERYWHERE!!!

a friend recommended this after she had a pest company use it at her house. This Optigard product is very easy to use and works VERY WELL. NO messy sprays, mixing, measuring. Just apply a dots where ants are going about their business and the next day they are NOT there any more. LOVE IT!!!!
Ants are gone
