Product Information

Finding the nest, and treating it directly, is the most effective way to cause problems caused by carpenter ants. These stations attract ants, enticing them with bait, and then transfer an ant-killer product onto them. The worker ants take this to the nest and it slowly kills the entire colony. Fleas are a common nuisance in the home, especially for pet owners. While fly killers can help reduce the number of fleas in your home, there are other steps you can take to prevent an infestation from occurring in the first place. The Home Defence Ant Stop Granules are for outdoor use only, and can help with getting rid of ants on patios or lawns.

It can be dusted along doorframes and windowsills, and any other crevices through which ants are gaining access to your home. I used the Home Defence Ant Stop! Bait Station in my kitchen, positioning two bait stations at two different entry/exit points that I’d seen ants use. Nippon Ant Killer Powder is one of the most well-known products for killing ants both inside the home and out.

While this is very easy to use and delivers fast results, the downside is that sprays have no effect on the ants that aren’t directly treated. As a result, this approach offers relatively limited pest control. It’s unlikely to kill all ants or get rid of the entire colony. Dealing with an ant infestation can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. A several-pronged approach is often required to really battle effectively against those insist ant armies. The design makes it easy to apply, taking the hassle out of using at-home treatments to fix an ant problem. It’s a good liquid alternative to using bait stations and granular bait without having to use an aerosol ant killer spray.

Red fire ants are distinctive to look at, and known to sting.
