Good priced…

12 days ago
I received this ortho ant killer in exchange for my honest review So love how clear the label it the ease at opening it and the bottle is sleek, however that’s about it for me… It smelled horrible when I opened it it blew up at me glad I did it outside. I sprinkled it on gave it its time and still just ants for days. Also huge pain had to chaperone the dog make sure she and none of the kids went over there I get it’s a killer but ugh. I might give it another try I’ll update if it changes my mind. It is got a good price I guess

Smelly but effective.

15 days ago
I have a few red ant mounds in my mulch beds below my plants. I’ve noticed an increase in red ants in the porch since my plants have been planted and are growing. They love crawling around in there… I don’t care for them much. Using this product I’ve seen a slight decrease in red ants on my porch now, they are still there but not as many. The product is easy to open with the help of the lid notch, just read the directions. It has a unique smell that I’m not a fan of, but I’m sure it’s helpful to the ants. I sprinkled I’d say maybe a teaspoon over the mulch where the ants are but it looks a lot. The whiten powder can’t deter people from touching and staying away. When using I suggest wearing gloves and a mask. There is a lot of dust kickback.

SUPER Effective!

22 days ago
This Fire Ant Killer is SUPER effective! After 3 days 3/4 of the mounds I treated are completely gone. The one that is still only slightly active went deeper than I realized and will be getting another treatment, but it's 99% clear. The smell is very mild compared to other fire ant killer products. It's so easy to apply. The timing of application is the hardest part since you have to avoid rainy days. And you get a LOT of product for the price.

Great product for stopping pesky ants!

a month ago
This worked really well to stop the ants from coming into my home. The small container makes it easy to store. The thin powder texture allows for deeper penetration of the ant hill. Definitely worth the price!
