Will this Product kill odorous Ants?

Is this product good to kill Small house hold ants. I purchased some and I have noticed it Kills some ants but the small I think they are Called odorous Ants it doesn't seem to be working on them?

Answer:

Suspend SC will kill odorous house ants that come into direct contact with treated areas. Suspend SC will not spread from ant to ant or go back to the nest to eradicate the colony which means you could have a constant influx of ants unless you find the nest and treat it directly or use a product that will be carrier back to the nest. Phantom Aerosol would be a good choice for ant control indoors. Phantom is a non-repellent insecticide that has a delayed reaction which allows ants time to get back to the colony and spread the product. In essence, the ants will not be able to tell that the product is in place and they will pick it up on the fine hairs all over their body and inadvertently carry it back to the colony where over a course of a few days it will knock out the entire colony. Phantom works really well because you don't have to worry about whether the ants will all take the bait, they just need to walk over the treated areas. Phantom should be applied around baseboards, door frames, window frames and places where utilities (cables, pipes and wires) enter through the wall as these are the most likely places for the ants to enter/exit.
