Awesome Ant Baits; Not a Responsive Seller
These Terro Ant Baits are excellent. We live in an area beset by gazillions of ants, but for the first time in 50 years, I have none. I placed these on each side of the front and rear porches on my home and boy, did they stop the ants from coming in. I replace them every spring (they last a surprisingly long time) and no more issues. We used to try sprays, powders, hot water, vinegar, home remedies, peppermint oil, and all sorts of things to no avail. These are safe and very, very effective. I can remember putting Sevin on a huge anthill in the yard based on manufacturer's recommendations. After I researched the environmental costs and toxicity of Sevin, I stopped using it. It works, but at what cost down the line? The next time I had a large anthill in the yard, I staked one of these Terro traps on top of it (they come with little stakes to secure them to the ground if you so choose). Problem solved just as quickly, but with safe ingredients and no followup.The only problem I had ordering these baits was that I ordered two packs of six baits each, for a total of twelve. The company sent me two packs of four baits each. When I complained about the inaccuracy and sent the baits back, they sent me two more packs of four baits each. I paid for twelve but received only eight. This turned into an unsolvable issue and Amazon dinged me for the second set of baits even though I returned them. Lesson learned- use caution when dealing with the "Terro Store".

Ant bait that attracts the ants
I put one out by my Solar Panels to keep the ants out of the electronics. It worked like a charm.

SMILING ---no ants in my kitchen!
This is the first time I've used this particular bait( Terro Outdoor Liquid)to get ‘em & keep ants out of my home. I've fought ants every year foryears. At this point let me say I live in a 2nd. floor Condo. with an outsideentrance, with stairs and a deck leading to the front door. In years past,it was obvious they were coming in through the kitchen window and at theentry door but not this year.This summer has been particularly bad. Ants in the kitchen, ants in the bathroom,also a few ants in my bedroom. I usually only see the bedroom ones when they’recrawling across my notebook screen and I;ve seen a couple on top of my conforter.They’re probably coming up the cord because I usually use it plugged in rather thanrunning off the battery. I don’t see them anywhere else. A few years ago, I saw themon the window sill, but not this year. … ???These are small ants. Some are small black ants (sugar ants) and others are so smallthey're hard to see. In the bathroom, I just look for movement on the floor because they'reso small and light colored. I don’t know what kind they are, I just know they’re there everyday and night. Kill ‘em and the next time you go in, there will be more. There's no problemseeing themwhen they've crawled up onto the commode and when you're in a hurry, havingto get rid of them before taking care of your business… well … I don’t care if there’s one,two or three… they gotta go so I can!I know in the bathroom they're coming in from the wall between my unit and another unit.The kitchen and my bedroom, who knows. There is no distinct trail of them. They're just thereon the counter in one location or multiple. Sometimes I see some on the floor, or along baseboards-- those I think come in from the entry door crawl along the baseboards either on top or behind them.Only one time this year have I seen a distinct trail. They came in from under the front door and traileddirectly to a partial bag of dog food that wouldn’t fit into the airtight container I use to store the dog’s food.I thought I'd sealed it sufficiently. I guess not! That bag was so infested with ants, the food was thrown out.The entry under the door and the wall they trailed up were washed with bleach. hopefully, to kill the trail.I haven't seen any there since so I have to assume it worked. It's probably been a month now since I'drefilled the dog food and had some left over that attracted the ants to it.In the kitchen it’s a couple at a time or 8,10,12 …maybe more. I've been spraying them and thecounters with bleach water to kill them and the smell or pheromones they follow, not wanting to put anypoisons in the kitchen. But.. they keep coming —almost every time you walk into the kitchen, day ornight, there were ants somewhere on the counters. Grrrrr 😡I never saw an obvious trail outside either, neither before or after placing the liquid baits. I put a fewof these liquid bait containers on each of my two decks. The second deck is off the living room. I’ve onlyseen a few ants up there on the rail and never seen any by my sliding glass door. Of course, that doesn’tmean anything, they could sneak in and hide in the carpet en route to the kitchen.I did see a few ants go in or out of the baits the day after placing them outside, but that's it. I used 3 on a23 ft long front deck. One on the decking by the landing and corner of my unit, one on the rail at the oppositeend with a little duck tape underneath holding it in place and one in the middle tucked under a chair.On the small deck, again, I placed one on the rail and one tucked between a planter and the building where Icould be sure the dogs wouldn’t be able to get into it.After two days, on the third day, suddenly there weren't any ants on the kitchen counter or anywhere I’velooked in the kitchen since. I'm holding my breath they don't return. That’s all it took and they appear to begone from my kitchen and entry hall.They're still coming in the bathroom but... I'll get them there too! I bought some indoorTerro liquid baits to use in the kitchen and bathroom but it appears I won't need any in the kitchen.I haven’t placed one in the bathroom yet because I want to wash the bathroom floor before placing there.I’m confident just one will do the trick but, I might use two… one on each end of the wall where I knowthey’re coming in.If you have persistent ant problems like I've had, give these a try. I should warn you, the name says it all.They are liquid. I'd recommend placing where you want them, then push down and make your one-quarterturn as the instructions say to do.I can't be more impressed with the results so far. Everyday, every time, I walk into my kitchen and don’t seeany ants, I smile.

Purchased this and it helped keep our ant problem at bay. We had a ton of ants coming in our house. Our solution was to purchase these, as well as the Terro indoor ones. This slowed the flow of ants, and after they had slowed down, we sealed up all the holes the ants were coming in from with silicone caulk. We tried just Terro for weeks, and without sealing up the holes, the ants always came back, so keep that in mind. I would have given it 5 stars had it stopped the problem altogether. I will say, we also tried a mixture of borax, sugar and water and it worked almost as well as the Terro.
