    Not a great combination

    By Anthony on 08/10/2010

    It seems to me for carpenter ants the gel is the way to go. The ants were gobbling the liquid up and the second I sprinkled the granular stuff near by the all stopped. A few picked up pieces and brought it into the nest but 2 minutes later others ants carried it right back out. Also the granular stuff burnt all of the plants I inadvertently sprinkled it on so be careful if you have pricey plants.

    Choose Taurus SC Instead

    By Alan on 06/25/2012

    Used this kit last year and still had ant problem. Chose Taurus SC this year instead (it's listed in the menu under "Termites"). I was skeptical, but desperate. With one application of Taurus SC around the perimeter of my house, the ants were gone. Like magic.

    No success..........

    I had a carpenter ant nest in the open beam ceiling of my home. Kept finding drones inside. I used the gel and the bait stations at the nest openings and around the floor where the drones seemed to appear. After 10 days, we were finding even more ants. The nest was still active. I finally sprayed Drione into the nest area, and the ants have finally disappeared. I never saw any ants interested in the bait or gel.

    Don't bother

    Surrounded my foundation with the granules. Placed both liquid and and granular bait throughout house. It has been a month and zero impact. I've noticed zero carpenter ant activity around the traps. The ants have no interest whatsoever in this bait. Given my experience, I must wonder about the legitimacy of the rave reviews I've read here. I've been had...save your money.

    ANTS

    By Jane on 08/19/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I still have ants coming into the ceiling...recommendation from company was to put both products on paper plate and tape to ceiling. After climbing up ladder..the plate fell and stuff fell in my face...granules are too hard for ceiling. The gel had very little in container for the cost...gave out before I got to cover area. Products they say only works for 2 weeks...would be nice for ants to find it faster and take to queen! I used granules last year alone...did not work.

    Disappointing Carpenter Ant Kit

    By Bj on 06/25/2011

    Verified Purchase

    It just did not work.  I plugged holes, I followed directions to no avail.  I feel like a piece of food that has been moved into the deepest part of the nest.
