Advion Ant Gel Bait

Advion Ant Gel Bait, manufactured by Syngenta, is an effective ant killer designed to be desirable to all major species of ants. The active ingredient, indoxacarb, is a non-repellant insecticide.

The gel is consumed by the workers and returned to the colony for sharing. It provides a high kill rate, eliminating the colony quickly. The gel bait leaves no residue and carries no odor.

Tools Needed

No tools are needed to apply this product as it comes ready to use right out of the package. However, if you choose to, you can optionally apply the product with the help of a bait gun (sold separately).

How To Use 

• Step 1: Thoroughly inspect the infested area to determine which areas you need to apply the bait.
• Step 2: Sanitize areas, removing all potential food sources. Use only a rag with warm water and mild soap, as household cleaners can deter ants from the bait.
• Step 3: Advion Ant Gel can be applied as dots or small lines of gel. Apply 0.1 to 1 gram spots of Advion Ant Gel or approximately a fourth of an inch in diameter spots. Apply lines of this product approximately an eighth of an inch wide and 2 inches long, up to 3 inches long for highly active foraging trails.
• Step 4: Apply as many placements of Advion Ant Gel as possible to active foraging areas without disrupting the ants' natural foraging behavior. Check the bait at least once a month and repeat the process as needed.
