Combat Source Kill Max Ant Bait and Ant Gel Review and Giveaway - ends 9/19


We have battled ants most of this summer, they were coming in from the back and front door. They also seemed to be all over the front yard!  I was sure happy when Combat Source Kill Max Ant Gel and Bait came to my door. 



Combat Source Kill Ant Bait are little bait stations that contain an effective killing insecticide which kills most common household ants. The ants go inside and take the bait back to the colony to kill the entire colony. These little bait traps are great to have when you have pets and children running around the house so you don't have to worry about them touching the bait inside. We placed the Ant Baits along the Arcadia door where the ants come in to get to the dog's food, I haven't seen any ants in any areas by the dogs food or outside where they normally are since we placed these around the door.



The Combat Source Kill Max Ant Gel is formulated to kill ants with Fipronil. This fast-acting agent is slow enough to allow the foraging ants return to the colony and feed the bait to the larvae and queens, thus killing the entire colony through a domino effect. Just place the gel near ant trails, ant nests, or in suspected ant areas. Use it in spots, cracks, and crevices indoors or outdoors. The gel works within hours and will continue to kill them up to a month. I put this along the doorway of our front door and along some trails in our front yard. It has been a couple of weeks and I can honestly say I haven't seen any ants in the front yard. 

These ant baits and gel have done a very effective job of keeping the ants away from the house. I prefer using these types of ant poison around our house instead of sprays because, not only do I not want to inhale the spray but I don't want any over spray of poison to be touched by anyone or walked on by my pets, who lick their paws. Please remember these are poisons so care must be used when applying the gel and setting out the baits. We don't have young children at home and my dogs don't normally go around chewing items that are left out. If you do have dogs or young children please make sure you put these items in areas where they can't be reached by them.
