Alpine Ant and Termite Foam - This stuff WORKS!
By Ross on October 22, 2011
Verified PurchaseThe beauty of this foaming crack & crevice product is the fact that ants do not avoid it, instead tracking through it and bringing it back to their nest... Proof is that we observed (and killed) several staggering ghost ant queens abandoning their nests - these ants had been plaguing us for a while, and no other product had managed to control the little buggers (pardon the pun). At first glance, product appears expensive, but the degree of expansion of the foam means that a little bit actually goes a long way. Highly recommended, without hesitation or reservation.

This stuff works!
By Shaun on March 1, 2012I had a palapa that was infested with termites. It was going to cost $400 to have it drilled and treated ($800 to have it tented and treated). So, needless to say, I tried it myself. I bought one can of the Alpine foam and drilled several holes in the palapa where i saw the termite holes and injected the foam. It's been over 3 weeks and i have yet to see any traces from the the termites. I still have half a can of left and i saved myself at least $375. I'm very happy

Worth reordering!
By Ross on November 23, 2011
Verified PurchaseProduct goes a long way - first can is (after numerous treatments) finally close to finished. Number of ants has dropped off to almost none. We liked this product so much that it was worth reordering to ensure that we had it in reserve... 'Nuf said.

QDoes the Alpine Ant and Termite Foam go into the wall as a foam and then turn to powder?
Does the Alpine Ant and Termite Foam go into the wall as a foam and then turn to powder? Is the main ingredient boric acid? I recently saw on TV someone using a spray for ants that goes into the wall and becomes a powder which is brought back to the nest and I thought they said it was Boric Acid powder, environmentally friendly.
AThe Alpine Ant and Termite Foam does go into wall voids but it does not turn into a powder, it actually becomes a clear residual product once it dries that can be picked up by ants and termites and taken back to the nest. The active ingredient is Dinotefuran .025%, not boric acid powder. Alpine is very environmentally friendly. We do carry a Boric Acid Powder dust called CB Borid Boric Acid Dust which would fit the description of what you are describing.

QCan Alpine Foam (or another Foam) be used in conjunction with Termidor to treat for termites?
Can Alpine Foam (or another Foam) be used in conjunction with Termidor to treat for termites (ie: Termidor outside and Alpine Foam indoors to treat a wall void where a swarm occurred)?
AYes, since Alpine Ant and Termite Foam is also a non-repellent, it can be used in conjunction with Termidor with no issues. It would be advised to treat as you stated, Termidor outside and Alpine foam inside the structure.
October 25, 2011Cathy from Orange, Ca asked:
QI have drywood termites in a painted patio post. Should I use Alpine foam or Fastout Foam? or something else?
I can see the kickout hole. Would I drill a hole directly into the kickout hole or several holes around the area?
AThe Alpine Ant and Termite Foam is our most popular product, so we would suggest that product. You should drill directly into the kickout hole and foam into the drill holes. Simple as that.

QHow does Alpine Ant&Termite; Foam compare to D-Foam for carpenter ants in wall voids?
I currently use D-Foam with success but am always open to better alternatives.
AIt is always our opinion "if its not broken, don't fix it". If you are having success with D-Foam we recommend you stick with it. Still if you want to try something else we would be happy to offer a side by side comparison. D-Foam has the active ingredient Deltamethrin which offers a fast knockdown and a long lasting residual. D-Foam does not however spread back to the nesting area, it will only eliminate carpenter ants that come into direct contact with treated areas. Alpine Ant and Termite Foam on the other hand contains Dinotefuran and comes from a new line of Reduced Risk Non-Repellent products. Non-repellent products are un-detectable to insects and have a transfer effect which means there is a delayed reaction to the active ingredient allowing the insecticide to spread throughout a colony. Non-repellents can take several weeks to kill an insect. Both products have excellent feedback from our customers who have used them for carpenter ant infestations.
June 2, 2011Carolina asked:
QWhen using Alpine Foam around the perimeter of a home for carpenter ants, how often should you apply it?
AAlpine Foam is meant for treating ants inside the wall voids and small crack and crevice areas inside and around the outside of the home. It is no meant to be applied around the perimeter of the home, like a spray. Instead of using the foam inside cracks and crevices, and places where pipes enter the home every month, it would be much better to apply a product like Dominion 2L, which is applied out of a 1 gallon hand pump sprayer. It is much easier to take care of ants by spraying a larger area that ants can crawl over easily near the house instead of treating each individual crack around the house. Also, the spray will last 60 to 90 days so it does not require as much treating as the foam.
