What Customers Are Saying

The product had mixed results in controlling fire ants. Some customers reported it worked effectively, killing ant colonies and providing long-lasting yard protection. However, many others found it ineffective, with the ants simply relocating rather than being eliminated. The consensus is that the product works well for some users, but fails to provide consistent, long-term control of fire ants for others.

Good Fire Ant Killer

Would Recommend

I use the Over 'n Out Advanced Fire Ant Killer for my home. It is pet friendly and goes down easily with my push spreader from Weed Eater. One bag set at #2 setting will cover 13,000 square feet. I use one bag for the front yard and another for the back yard. You do need to wear a mask and glasses so you do not walk into the dust of this insecticide or else you may get a headache or stomach ache later on in the evening. I use this in conjunction with the powder insecticide. The bag I put on the ...

Not worth buying

Would Not Recommend

I am going back to Ortho fire ant killer. There is nothing advanced about this over and out product. I put extra granuals on the mounds, and then the entire spread of the yard. Gave it some water like the directions say and the next day the ants were laughing at me. What a waste of time. I had such good results last year with Ortho, I should have stayed with it. lesson learned.

Fast, thorough product

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this product several times on numerous stubborn ant hills all over my yard. Other products didn't seem to work very well, as the ants seemed to just move the hill. With this product, I see fewer and fewer hills over the last several months. It seems to kill the ants before they can move on.

Great product

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used GardenTech Over 'N Out Fire Ant Killer on 4 huge Fire Ant mounds in my front lawn where we practice soccer. 2 weeks later 3 out of the 4 mounds were gone. I am definitely happy with this product.

Bought this product may 25th, put it down the first part of June. There was a period of maybe 3weeks that it controlled ants, and since then they are everywhere worse than ever. Nowhere near the 6month control claimed. Waste of our time and money.

Great product.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Every time it rains ants get in my car. I used this treatment around my parking spot. It was fast and easy. The bag is a good size. It won't run out too fast but isn't too heavy for me to carry and pour out. I do like that the package has instruction for weight and cup amounts for different applications. I look forward to using it in my vegetable garden next spring.

Finally able to put out the fire

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first received the product, I currently didn't have any fire ants. I knew they would come though. Once they appeared, this product worked like a charm, at the first sign of a mound I applied the product as directed. In no time, they were gone! It was such a relief because not only do I react horribly, but we have a dog and multiple children running through our yard. I'm glad it only took a little of the product to do the trick so we will...

Killed some ants but they returned

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried GardenTech Over 'N Out Fire Ant Killer because we have several fire ant mounds in our front yard. After applying the product, I was hopeful that it had worked because The mounds no longer seemed active. After a day or two all the fire ants had returned making new mounds 6-10 inches away from the original. I tried this product three times on 7 mounds, each time with the same result. This may have been due to the daily thunderstorms we ar...

Got rid of the ants!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had about 8 very active nests running alongside our property line and street. The instructions were easy to understand. I had heard others complain about an odor, but I did not find this to be the case. Even though we had a rain, we did put some water on the ground before application. Application was very easy- spread it on each hole, and add some water. After about an hour, I did not see any activity on any of the nests, and 2 weeks later, ...

This stuff either controls fire ants or it doesn't. It doesn't. The more I put out the worse they get.

Easy application

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My house is really suffering from fire ant invasion this summer. Even though, I have a pest control service, I do apply additional "stuff" in between. Just to be on the safe side. What is important for me is that if a product can be applied with a spreader - it's a real convenience. And, as it can be seen from the picture, this one can. I am yet to see the results, will take a couple of days I think. What is good about this product is the granu...
