Product Details

it works, liquid ant bait

TERRO - It Works!

Generations of consumers have come to know that the bright orange package stands for “Ant Control.”No matter what type of home pest control challenge you face, TERRO has the solution!

kill the ants you see and the ones you don't, liquid ant bait

Kills the Ants You See & Don't See

Foraging ants take the bait back to the nest. The communal nature of an ant colony allows the bait to be spread, killing the ants you see as well as the ones you don't see.

total population control, liquid ant bait

Total Population Control

Ant baits are designed to slowly spread throughout the entire colony to offer total control in just a few weeks.

attract ants, liquid ant baits

Attracts Ants

Since this is a bait, initially you will see more ants, before they disappear. But it's a good thing! The enticing sugary liquid can then spread through the entire colony.

how liquid ant bait works

How It Works

The active ingredient slowly interferes with the ant’s digestive system, ultimately killing it, but leaving enough time for the ant to go back and share the dose with the rest of the colony.

where to place liquid ant bait

Where to Place

Place near trails, along baseboards, in corners, on counters, under and behind appliances, on windowsills, and other locations where ants are numerous.

Use more liquid bait placements

The More Placements, the Better

Place additional bait stations anywhere they may enter your home. For best results, use multiple placements to ensure a sufficient supply for the ants.

remove attractants, liquid ant bait

Remove Other Attractants

Before placing the bait stations, be sure to remove other sources of food, such as crumbs, sugar and grease spots to prevent attracting ants elsewhere.

monitor liquid ant bait placements

Monitor Placements Regularly

Monitor placements regularly, but do not interfere with the pests or bait.

replace bait placements as needed

Replace Bait As Needed

Replace bait placements when the liquid is depleted or becomes dry.

prevent ants from returning, liquid ant bait

Prevent Ants from Returning

Once the colony is under control, keep placing baits to prevent new colonies from forming.

liquid ant bait attracts and kills all common household ants

Works on Common Household Ants

Liquid ant bait attracts and kills all common, sweet-eating household ants.

control ants indoors and outdoors, liquid ant baits

Control Ants Everywhere

Liquid ant baits can help you target infestations wherever they exist, whether indoors or out.

About This Product

With Terro Outdoor Liquid Ant Bait Stakes, stop the problem at the source. The stakes target ants outdoors before they can make their way inside. The slow killing poison gives ants time to transport the bait to the colony and the queen, eliminating the ants you see, and the ones you don't. The baits are easy to use - simply place the stakes in outdoor areas where ants have been observed, break the tab open, and let the bait work its magic. A see through bait monitor helps you keep track of when it's time to replace. The stakes are weatherproof, offering protection through all elements.

          Smaller than indoor version
          The tiny opening when eventually torn off is easily clogged. It will work for very small volume of ants. Outdoor version is pricey, with less volume than indoor. The indoor version seems to have slightly larger opening, allowing more ants inside.

            This works
            So east to use and the next day ants where going in and out of it like crazy. Only 1/2 as many ants and it hasn’t even been 24 hours. No nasty chemicals to spray or sprinkle just stick it in the ground cut the tab and bam!! Which I had found this earlier.

              this product does not work
              I bought these bait stations recently, of course by looking at all the positive reviews it had, but greatly disappointed with the outcome. I placed these bait stations near ant paths at several locations for more than a week now but still I continue to see the ants passing it by and not even getting close by these baits.

              Thank you for this feedback. If the ants were not interested in the bait, they may not be looking for sweet based foods?

                The ants attacked this like it was a free meal !!!!!!! Trying to open each one by twisting the tab was not easy to do at all. The only downfall was that some type of animal, (maybe a squirrel) tore my spikes right out of the ground and ripped the green stake and the clear plastic bait holder to shreds !!!

                These traps work. I needed to find a way of avoiding lots of ant killing chemicals spread around our yard. Our front lawn began to look like one big ant hill. I placed 4 boxes, 32 traps around the lawn and the ants are drawn to them. It is a constant battle but these traps are a great alternative to using lots of chemical killers.

                We bought the stakes and the traps for inside. Within a day the ghost ants were gone. Great, great product. Recommend them to our daughter who also had great success. Within hours of e had a stream of ants on the ledge above the stake. Now nothing.
