Didn't work for my ant problem
I had high hopes but the black ants we have did not take to it. I added a couple drops of syrup to draw them in and all they did was take the syrup and left the poison. I am pretty sure they are carpenters as some of them are over.5" and close to.75"

Get it!
I had carpenter ants galore inside my house and we have a well-kept home and nothing that would encourage a home for them here. I bought this product, a great seller of it too, and after distributing it then two days later we did not see a single carpenter ant. I love the product and I love the seller.

Good stuff
Would definitely recommend it, have used it many times in the past. If you use it right, you can locate the nest, and then drop the bait right by the nest, killing it without wasting a lot of the product.

Questions and Answers

  1. Q:any harmful affects to live oak trees? i have some oaks with hollow sections that are rampant with carpenter ants.
    6/26/23
    A:Carpenter Ants can damage the trees by creating tunnels in the healthy wood for a nest, often burrowing all the way into the heartwood. Advance Carpenter Ant Bait has been very effecative for me, as it does attract these ants. They carry it into their nest to feed to the queens. I have very successfully used it even in our house when the ants invaded a wall in one room. I recommend this product.

  6. Q:Does outdoor temperature affect the effectiveness of Advance Granular Carpenter Ant Bait?
    9/14/20
    A:Not at all. You can use Advance Granular Carpenter Ant Bait in any weather. As long as there are ants around, the bait will work. The only time you would not want to apply it is if it is raining or going to rain within 24 hours. This product is best applied when you are going to have a few days of dry weather.

  8. Q:How do I know if the Advance Granular Carpenter Ant bait is working?
    9/14/20
    A:Seeing the dead ants means that the Advance Granular Carpenter Ant Bait is working. Ants however change their nutritional needs frequently This means that one day they may only forage for proteins, like the Advance Carpenter Ant Bait you put out and another day they may forage for carbohydrates like bait gels or liquids. We recommend leaving the granules in place and allow the ants to continue their natural foraging.

  9. Q:Should I worry about pets being harmed by Advance Granular Carpenter Ant Bait when placed outdoors?
    9/14/20
    A:When applied correctly, Advance Granular Carpenter Ant Bait will not harm children or pets. Pets can be attracted to the granules but if they are applied correctly the pets should not be able to eat enough of them for it to be harmful. You should ideally broadcast this product outside, meaning you will be placing very small amounts in grass, mulch, etc. A pet would have to consume a large quantity of this product for it to effect them.

  10. Q:What is the difference between Advance Carpenter Ant Bait and Advance 375A?
    9/14/20
    A:Advance Granular Carpenter Ant Bait is specifically designed to be more attractive to carpenter ants as it has larger granules which smaller ants are not as interested in. Advance 375A has granules of all sizes so that more types are attracted to it
