Max Ant Killing Gel Bait Station, Indoor and Outdoor Use, 4 Count

The price is awesome. I can't find this product in any of our local stores. It can take up to two weeks to work. It works great and that's why we buy it every spring.

This product has some good qualities like ease of use, however I still see ants after a week of use.

In the same house for 30 years. Always had some sort of ant problem like most people. Last year...the worst. 40 plus ants at a second floor window sill, and the window was closed. They were entering through a small gap in the window trim. I tried the syringe type of applicator of this that I picked up at the local big box hardware store. Too messy. Sure, the ants came out of the woodwork, literally. But squeezing this gel everywhere and with pets around, well, it was NG-No Good. Noticed this next gimmick, test bate station on Amazon. Read some reviews and figured why not. We need more why not types in the world so I bought a supply. NO REGRETS! I place four outside around the house last year where I knew the ants traveled, that's the key. You have to follow them to see where they are going to and coming from regardless of any means used to get rid of them. My mother-in-law moved into an apartment earlier this year, at a retirement home. Few weeks later she asked if I could help her with the ants that she has there. I gave her a box of 4 bate traps from my stash. Taught her how to use them and her problem disappeared! I ordered more and this spring, instead of reacting, I made a preemptive strike and placed four around the home again. Same locations i used last year. No issues upstairs. No issues down stairs. We did see two or three ants sporadically on the kitchen counter. Popped a cap on a bate trap. Placed it by the kitchen sink. Problem solved. Spend a couple of dollars and try it.

I NEVER leave negative feedback, but if giving zero stars was an option, that would be my rating. I noticed a couple of ants in my kitchen pantry, called my exterminator to schedule a treatment to learn that they were 2 1/2 weeks out, so I scheduled and also asked to be placed on a cancellation list. In the meantime, my husband tested positive for Covid so I ordered these as a "bandaid" until it is safe for an exterminator to come inside our house. I read the instructions (multiple times) and pushed down the little syrup pouch; nothing happened. After many attempts and many minutes, they didn't puncture, the liquid didn't dispense...nothing. I tried another one and another one. Same results. I finally stuck a skewer inside the plastic dome thing to puncture the bottom. End of long story, I punctured all four, squeezed them flat, pried open the plastic holders to make sure the goop was released and placed them all in my pantry. THE RESULT: The many, many ants continue their march inside my pantry, taking periodic pauses to admire the four picturesque plastic pyramids I've placed in their path. Sometimes, they even take a 360 tour around the base and one even climbed to the top, but ultimately NOT ONE ANT has gone into the cone and enjoyed the poisonous nectar. What a joke. I will have my son pick up something at a home improvement store and leave it on my doorstep as we continue to quarantine and isolate through Covid. Totally worthless product.

I've been battling ants for months and sweet bait traps usually work really well. I was using the Terro liquid baits with great success until the ants started ignoring the baits so I bought these. I like the saucer design of these but the gel pack that you have to push into the center to activate was dried out and wasn't in gel form any longer. I couldn't get all of the gel to squeeze out of the package and it was hard after leaving it out overnight. I assume the package I got was old. What I realized was that the ants weren't attracted to sugar. I found a few groups of them carrying seeds from under the toaster and a group was carrying parts of a dead beetle across my rug, (Gross!) so I switched to protein bait. I recycled the saucer trap that came with this bait by ripping the bait bit out of the center. I filled it with a mix of peanut butter and borax and within 30 minutes half the colony came out of a teeny hole in the windowsill to get the bait. Within 24 hours they cleaned the peanut butter completely and left the dried ant bait. I'll save the saucer part of the trap and reuse for the protein bait mixture. I recommend trying different bait sources if your ants aren't using the sugar bait traps. It might not be the bait that isn't working, it might not be the food source they're looking for at the moment.

I don't usually leave reviews, but these are a must have if you have ants, especially since they are so low priced! I must have ended up with an ant nest in my car over the long weekend after they sprayed our apartments for bugs. I got rid of few the ants I saw with homemade spray with borax, but they must have built a nest in the hood as many more came back, even though I deep cleaned the car. I then tried liquid ant traps I already had to no avail. I was about to use a bug bomb in my car because I was desperate, but I saw these and the reviews and knew I had to try them. I put one of these in over night and the next day I found only a few stragglers (which I sprayed with my homemade spray)! The day after, I had more ants again. I assume they built a second nest or the larvae they had hatched. Since I also was killing any I saw with my spray, I figured not enough got back to the best. So on that second day, I just let them be to do their thing. I put another trap in as well just in case, and it's now the third day and I haven't seen a single ant! I'm going to leave them for the full month just in case, but I couldn't be happier! Definitely try not to kill any ants you see so they can bring the bait back to the nest. It was very hard to leave them alone, but I definitely think it helped. 100/10 for sure

Several years ago, this was recommended to me by an exterminator that had a contract with the community I lived in. I quickly ran out and found it, and fell in love with the shockingly fast results. After putting these out, I typically see a significant decrease in ants about 2 to 3 days later. Within an additional two days after that, I typically don’t see ants in that area anymore. Absolutely love this product, and don’t ever want to have to use anything else!!
