Ant Control Baits

Ant baits come in a few different forms, liquids, solid matrices and granules.  Liquid is an ideal formulation for many ants that are typically co existing with honey dew producing insects.  The Argentine ant for example will consume more bait in the liquid form versus the solid.  Particle sizes are also important when considering an ant bait granule, as some ants may not be able to pick up larger grit sizes.

What type of ant bait that is recommended will typically depend on what type of ants and also their food preference?  Another important factor is sanitation so that the bait is not competing with other food sources; remember that the bait is trying to mimic the ant’s food source.

Location of ant baits should be in the areas where the ants are being seen indoors.  Inside ant bait should be placed in window sills, electrical outlets, pipes and sinks, countertops, toilets, pipes and drains, sinks and any other source of moisture.  On the outside, ant baits can be placed at corners of windowsills, at corners of the foundation, around entrances and exits, around base of trees, outside tree holes, and at incoming and outgoing plumbing and electrical lines.
