What Customers Are Saying

The Amdro fire ant killer appears to be an effective product for controlling ant infestations, with many customers reporting that it was able to quickly eliminate large ant populations. Several reviewers noted that it was the only product that successfully dealt with their ant problems after trying various other methods. However, some customers expressed disappointment, stating that the product no longer seemed as effective as it had been in the past, and that the granules were too large for the smallest ants to carry.

Amdro did it.

Would Recommend

I didn't care that ants were outside my home, but when they came up in the bathroom, I entered the ant wars. Over the period of two months I spread and watered in Bug-B-Gone granules (and videoed the ants walking through them the next day), soak-sprayed trails of ants and saturated all the ant nests I could find in my yard with well over 60 gallons from Bug-B-Gone and Spectracide concentrates, and put out over 30 Terro ant bait stations, as well as my own borax bait mix. The result? THE ANTS NEV...

Strange Occurrence

I have been using Amdro Fire Ant Bait for years with great success...until today. My wife treated three mounds in our yard in eastern NC and as she was working in the yard she noticed the ants were carrying the granules away from the mound about 18-24 inches, dropping the granules and returning to the mound to repeat the process. I'm stumped, any explanations?

Carpenter Ants are no Dead!

They must have been hungry cause they took it all back to the nest.

Ants Ignore This "Bait"

Would Not Recommend

I have used this product and the Amdro fire ant killer. Neither is effective at all. The ants take the granules and pile them up like other sand granules. They don't take it into the mound at all.

This used to work, but not anymore.

Would Not Recommend

I dony know if they changed the formula when they changed the packaging or what, but I have sugar ants and odorous house ants. They used to come pick up these little pieces as soon as I'd lay it out, now they just walk straight past and over it and it doesn't keep them out of the house at all. I'm so disappointed as this was the only stuff that ever seemed to actually work and now it doesn't. :(

This stuff is amazing!

Would Recommend

Over the past 6 months our yard has been over run with ants. They were building mounds all over the place, especially around our outdoor furniture and the strip of rocks we have next to our sidewalk. We first tried Terro granules and it appeared to help for maybe 2 weeks and then the ants came back with a vengeance. We found out it was only killing the ones on the surface that came in contact with it and the other ones were just moving the mounds. It was a nightmare. So we decided to give Amdro ...

Used it for fire ants in Florida, ants in CA and WI and now we are using it for giant ant hills etc. at our home in Baja Mexico. There is nothing more effective than this product -carpenter ants, fire ants, big huge red ants, black ants, sugar ants. All take a hike when we use Amdro

Works well

Would Recommend

I have black ants around my windows and window sills outside. I have a pest control company but they spray the perimeter once a quarter and it never really gets rid of them. I like the way Amdro Fire Ant killer works so I gave Amdro Any Block a try. Within 48 hours of applying, dead ants start appearing and live ants are much less. I will keep using it.

Smart Carpenter Ants

Would Not Recommend

Carpenter ants have infested a dead spot in my tree. I cut off most of the area and sprinkled the bait around the base of the tree and also in the opening where they are living. The ants are not attracted to the bait. They actually are throwing it off the stump in disgust! Eventually the whole crew came out to clean house.

Most effective treatment I've tried

Would Recommend

Every year the house is invaded by tiny black ants; found this product a couple of years ago so tried it out. I've been astounded at how well it works. I probably have to apply it a little more often because I don't use much; have to be careful to place it where the cat can't walk through it. But for us, it honestly doesn't seem to take much. Had a major infestation a month ago, used about three tablespoons along the trail, and the ants were gone in less than a day. Only wish the stuff was groun...
