Safe and easy to use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bottle is easy to open and use. The concentration is good. I like that it’s safe for the environment. I didn’t notice any residue. But the smell is very off putting. Fire ants don’t stand a chance.

Great product for stopping pesky ants!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked really well to stop the ants from coming into my home. The small container makes it easy to store. The thin powder texture allows for deeper penetration of the ant hill. Definitely worth the price!
