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

The gel is consumed by the workers and taken back to the colony to be shared, providing a high kill rate, eliminating the colony in a short period of time. The gel bait leaves no residue and carries no odor.

Tools Needed

There are no tools needed to apply Advion Ant Bait 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: Identify the ant to be sure it is one on the label, once determined that it is then you will need to thoroughly inspect the infested area to determine what 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 actually deter ants from the bait.
• Step 3: Advion Ant Gel can be applied either as dots of gel or small lines of gel. Apply 0.1 to 1.0 gram spots of Advion Ant Gel or approximately 1/4 of an inch in diameter spots. Apply lines of Advion Ant Gel of approximately 1/8 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 natural foraging behavior of ants. Check the bait at least once a month and repeat process as needed.
