    Are ants smarter than us?

    By Doug on 08/18/2015

    I have used both this protein bait and the sweet bait (Bayer MaxForce), and in both cases, the odorous ants loved it for the first day. Then they somehow figured out it was bad for them and carefully avoided them. I guess the word gets out!! Any ideas?

    It works

    By Tom on 08/19/2015

    This product does the job. I sprinkle the bait around the perimeter of the house. It acts as a barrier. No ants. I also use a liquid bait for ants. Both products were effective.

    Good Stuff - I Guess

    By Steve on 09/04/2015

    Put this stuff down with gel as recommended. So far the ants only want the gel so I don't know if this stuff works or not.

    Great bait my ants loved it.

    By Chris on 09/11/2015

    Great bait and the ants are in a frenzy over it. Not sure how well its working because more and more hills keep popping up... so more ants? Or same ants different location?

    Good stuff

    By Sonia on 09/15/2015

    It works, especially as a "bait band" around the house in spring before they set up housekeeping. Because it's in granules I don't worry about breathing it. Decent price too.

    Crazy Ants

    By Bens on 11/29/2015

    They came to the stations once, then avoided it, but did appear to significantly reduce the population. Still have the crazy ant problem.

    Love this

    By Gail on 03/25/2017

    I use sparingly in my yard and garden. Then toss over across my neighbors yards. No fire ants for 3 years now.

    Proven Ant Bait

    By Rich on 03/31/2017

    I have used Advance 375A Ant bait for three years, and it is very effective against small and medium-size brown ants and carpenter ants. I sprinkle it around ant hills as they emerge and under plants and along paths where ants travel. Two cautions: Do not use near dogs (who love the smell) and buy a new container each year to maintain peak effectiveness.

    Fast and effective

    By Eric on 04/12/2017

    Purchased the gel and granules due to carpenter ants on a porch. The ants were going up and down a post and I didn't want to start removing soffit to find the nest. I put some gel and granules on the handrail and the ants immediately began taking the bait. Two weeks later and there is no sign of the ants.

    It's the best!!!

    By Barb on 08/21/2017

    I found that the type of ants I have love this stuff. I just put a little bit in a medicine bottle cap & it draws them in, they take it back & ants no more.

    bye bye harvester ants!

    By Monique on 08/30/2017

    I wanted to use something to kill the harvester ants in my backyard that was as benign environmentally as possible. I only placed bait by ant mound opening and placed a large garden pot over it , lifted on one side with a brick. This was to keep birds and my new puppy from seeing bait and eating the bait. Well, after 1 treatment I have seen ZERO harvester ants. How satisfying is that!

    This works for me!

    By Dave on 09/03/2017

    I had really good luck with the Advance Carpenter Ant bait for those ants last year, so I should have gone with this one for my new problem with smaller ants, but I tried and failed with something else first. The Advance 375A came through, once I finally offered it! (The Carpenter Ant bait was too large and not attractive to these smaller ants.)

    this is good stuff

    By Doug on 10/02/2018

    I have been in the pest control biz for 30 years. Baiting for ants will give you a pretty good chance at eliminating ant colonies. Now, things vary, type of ant, time of year, weather, time of day. Are there other critters that will steal the bait etc. Ants are after either protein or sweet things, again depending on time of year. If they are in your candy , use a sweet bait, if in the pet food THIS is the ticket. It works most every time. Now the beauty of these little granules is that you will actually see the ants move off with a piece. In this way with a flashlight with a red lens or just using slight light of a normal lens (don't freak them out) track them back to the nest. Is it outside? in the roof? You will , with this product be able to find out. Some baits kill too fast, you don't want that. With this product you have two ways to get them, a tainted food supply, and or finding and then attacking the nest direct. I have found THIS product to be the most successful one.

    Advance 375A Granular Ant Bait

    By Jan on 09/04/2019

    After reading other reviews I ordered this in conjunction with Advion Ant Bait Gel. I pulled back the pine straw on the outside of my home and started to shake the Advance 385A on the ground. Almost immediately it was like a feeding frenzy! I literally watched the ants carry the granules back into the ground. Several days later I did not see one ant in my kitchen. It's now been three weeks with no ants. I highly recommend this product along with the Advion Gel for indoors

    Best Product

    By Kathy on 11/15/2019

    Most ant varieties love this bait, especially carpenter ants. I wish I had found this product several years before the ants could multiply. They are gone now.

    Advance 375A Ant Bait

    By Mark on 07/04/2020

    The bait attracted very small ants, but the carpenter ants did not show any interest in the bait at all.

    It Worked!

    By Johanna on 08/18/2020

    In the past, I had used a sugar based ant gel bait. In my previous home, the sugar based gel always worked. But in my new home, the ants avoided it. After searching the Internet to find answers about why the ant bait wasn't working, I came on this website and read about how ants forage for what they need and if they don't need sugar - they won't take the bait. So I bought this ant bait because it is protein based. The ant problem was so bad that I decided to take a chance and give the granular bait a try. I am happy to say that within 5 seconds of putting this bait down, the ants were already taking the bait and then they swarmed within an hour. Within 3 to 5 days the number of ants dwindled and disappeared. It's been almost a month and I have had no problems since. I highly recommend this product and would gladly buy it again. It was just what I needed for my situation.

    Ants be gone!!!

    By Chris on 09/27/2009

    I had a trail of ants attacking my dog's food after a heavy rainstorm pushed the ants inside my home. I contacted Do My Own Pest Control and they assessed the situation and recommended Advance 375A Select. The ants were gone in a matter of hours. I now plan to look through their other products. Thanks Guys!

    Verified Purchase

    Used this product when I was a professional pest tech with a major pest control company. Had great results with it then and now, around my own home. Both pavement and carpenter ants scoop this stuff up like crazy. I used it on and around our front walk and a couple days after using it...bingo, no pavement ants.

    This is a great product.  Does the trick on carpenter ants.  Small amounts placed along the ant trail and in a few days all are gone.  Also a great price from the people at DoMyOwnPestControl.

    Granular ant bait

    By Jill on 05/23/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I was all excited to use this and the ants didn't touch it at all. I had read that it depends on what they are looking for, that sometimes the gel works better. I had bought both. The gel worked great. I only rated it 1 star because I had to put something in. Would rather write N/A since I haven't been able to use it yet.

    Advance 375A Ant Bait

    By Otto on 06/12/2011

    I've had great success using Advance 375A Ant Bait to get rid of carpenter ants as well as other ants outside the house. I place small piles of bait outside where I see ants congregate, renewing the piles daily as necessary. Within a few days they are gone. I've found this also keeps ants from returning inside where I sometimes see them in the kitchen.

    They couldn't get enough!

    By Kenny on 07/18/2011

    As soon as I put it down the ant's were all over it. I actually saw them fighting over it. This stuff was by far the best ant bait I've found. Money well spent.

    Carpenter Ant eliminator

    By Jim on 08/01/2011

    Have had a problem with carpenter ants for several years. A lot of solutions just don't work. Tried the Advance 375A within the past few weeks and have noticed that in some places(which were infested) there are no ants. Can't give it five stars because I have to wait until Fall to see how well things turned out.

    This product works great in conjunction with the gel. My only complaint is that they don't sell it in a smaller package. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

    Advance 375A

    By Jeff on 05/10/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Purchased this for an ant infestation in my back yard. Not being familiar with species of ants other than carpenter ants (Advance carpenter ant bait is quite effective, so I tried some of this for other species) I can only say that I used some of this on large black ants about 1/2" long. These nasty creatures often try to take a piece of your leg home for lunch. They wolfed the 375a down. A week later the nest was still active but the active ants were busy carrying the dead ones out by the dozens. They seem to have stopped foraging. It indicates to me that at the very least, this product has done some severe damage to the colony. If they begin to forage again, I'll feed them some more. Out of town right now so couldn't make any recent observations.
