Product Overview

The California / New York Outdoor / Indoor Ant Kit contains all the professional pest control products you need to treat most common ant species both inside and outside. This kit is designed particularly for customers who are already seeing ants both indoors and outdoors. The kit includes multiple baits to satisfy ants’ varying appetites, plus two different sprays to treat areas where ants may be found. The Outdoor/Indoor Kit contains refillable bait stations that hold multiple baits at the same time: Bait Plate Stations are small and clear for discreet and easy indoor use, and Ants No More Stations have a larger capacity and more durability to protect baits outdoors. Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait is a protein bait that can be used both indoors and outdoors in the provided stations. Advion Ant Bait Gel is a sweet bait for use primarily indoors. Antack Liquid Ant Bait is a versatile ready-to-use liquid ant bait that mimics honeydew for use in outdoor stations.

Details

Before applying any insecticides, you should always inspect and prepare the treatment area. Practice good sanitation by eliminating food and water sources that may compete with the baits you are about to apply. Indoor sanitation includes tasks like taking out the garbage daily, vacuuming regularly, and eliminating water sources by keeping sink and tub areas dry and fixing water leaks. Outdoor sanitation includes keeping outdoor trash cans cleaned and away from the structure, removing debris piles where ants like to harbor, and creating a dry zone adjacent to the structure by pulling back mulch, pine straw, or other barriers. It is also crucial to find ways to seal up and eliminate ants’ access points into the structure.

These steps will help not only to treat an existing infestation, but also to prevent future problems. Once you have identified the areas where ants are trailing and could possibly enter the structure, you are ready to use the products in your Ant Control Kit. You can choose to treat either inside or outside first, but since indoor ant infestations are generally more concerning, we suggest starting there.

How to Apply Outdoor/Indoor Ant Kit

INDOORS

STEP 1 - BAIT INDOORS - Bait Plate Stations, Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait, Advion Ant Bait Gel

*Handle bait stations with clean, dry hands or wear gloves. Avoid handling bait with bare hands as this may make baits less palatable.

*Your kit includes a set of 12 bait station bases, 12 lids, and 12 glue dots. Pull apart the stacks to separate the components. Each base is a tray with two ridged channels so that you can use two different baits in each bait plate station.

*To apply the Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait, first unscrew the top to remove the seal under the cap. Then flip open the “spoon” side of the cap and use a dedicated or disposable tool such as a plastic spoon to scoop a small amount of the bait granules into each station. Use 0.5 oz. (1 Tablespoon) of bait in one side only of each bait plate station you plan to set out. (Keep the other channel empty for the gel bait.)

*Be sure to store bait in a cool, dry place with the lid securely closed.

*To apply the Advion Ant Bait Gel, first gently unscrew the solid blue tip of the tube you would like to use. Replace this tip with one of the longer clear or blue reusable tips included with your kit. Use either a bait gun or the included plastic plunger to gently expel the gel from the tube, similar to using a syringe. (You may need to pull back gently on the plunger to prevent over-application.) Place a spot of bait about the size of a pea in the other side of each bait plate stations you plan to use.

*When you are done applying the Advion Ant Bait Gel, replace the long plastic tip with the smaller solid tip to store bait.

*After you have filled your bait plate station trays, snap a lid onto each one by lining up the U-shaped tab and the round tab with the corresponding parts in the tray. Gently press the edges of the lid until it is firmly snapped into the tray, being careful not to tilt the trays, which may cause granule bait to spill. It is not necessary to remove the perforated tab from the bait plate station lids.

*You should place bait in areas where ant activity has been noticed. It is important to avoid purposefully putting the bait in the middle of an ant trail or onto the ants themselves: this will make the ants avoid the bait and make the baiting ineffective. Instead, put the bait near ant activity or next to ant trails. Some examples of places where the bait can be placed are:

  • In kitchen cabinets and on counter tops.
  • Behind, next to, and under the stove.
  • Near sinks or drains
  • Around pipes, cords, and cables that come out of the wall.
  • Behind and under bathroom fixtures.
  • Around the medicine cabinet and vanity.

*You should check the bait placements once a week and replenish as needed until ant activity has ceased. Be sure to continue reapplying bait as long as the ants accept it!

*Store baits in a dry, temperate area, out of direct sunlight. Baits are best used within a year of opening.

*Bait stations may be wiped clean and washed with warm water for reuse later. Do not use fragrant cleaners, as this may make future bait applications unattractive.

STEP 2 - BAIT OUTDOORS - Ants No More Bait Stations, Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait, Antack Liquid Ant Bait

*Allow spray application to dry before placing stations.

*Always use bait in clean, dry bait stations.

*The Ants No More Bait Stations are designed for discreet outdoor use, protecting bait from rain, sunlight, and non-target animals. The two interior compartments allow you to use two different ant baits in each station. You will apply the Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait granules in one side, and the Antack Liquid Ant Bait in the other side.

*This kit contains 12 bait stations, but you may not need to use all of them at once. Stations should be place approximately 25 feet apart, so most homes may only use 4 stations around the perimeter of the structure. Stations may be placed in other areas of high ant activity, keeping in mind that it is neither necessary nor ideal to eliminate all the ants from an outdoor area.

*To open the stations, line up the arrow on the cylindrical body (there is a dip in the station) with the center mark on the lift tab of the lid.

*Push up on the lid, then push back on the opening so the lid can pop up.

*Apply up to 1-2 oz. (2-4 Tbsp.) of Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait per station (each side of the station holds approximately 2 oz. of bait). You should not fill the granules all the way to the top of the compartment to prevent excess condensation buildup.

*Advance 375A Select Granular Ant Bait can be used on the ground directly, although we recommend using these applications sparingly since bait is protected from rain and other weathering inside bait stations. Lightly sprinkle evenly at a rate of 0.3 ounces per 100 linear feet in a bad approximately 1-2 feet wide around the foundation of the building. Broadcast at a rate of 1 pound per acre.  This is equivalent to approximately 1.8 ounces per 5000 sq ft or 0.4 ounces per 1000 sq ft (1 tablespoon is approx 0.3 ounces of bait). To treat mounds, sprinkle approximately 1.5-3 ounces of bait around each ant mound without disturbing ant activity. Apply when the ground is dry and rain is not expected for at least 24 hours.

*Add Antack Liquid Ant Bait to the 2nd compartment.  You can pour directly from the bottle by twisting the top open and gently squeezing the liquid into the compartment.  Do not overfill station.  Replenish bait as needed.

*Bait stations may be wiped clean and rinsed with water as needed. Avoid using harsh cleaners or fragrant soaps as these may make baits less palatable to the ants.

*Store baits in a dry, temperate area, out of direct sunlight. Baits are best used within a year of opening.

    Excellent product and customer service

    By Larry on 10/20/2017

    We were battling ants in our house for months with every product that was available at the local hardware store. We finally went online and found DoMyOwn. We ordered the indoor/outdoor kit and unfortunately one of the products leaked during shipping. Customer service was excellent and sent us out a replacement product immediately. Also, the ant bait product worked miracles. The ants we were battling for months took the bait and disappeared completely within a couple of days.
