Fire ants pose a threat to people and animals, attacking at once and delivering painful bites repeatedly. Advion Fire Ant Bait is specially formulated to target these aggressive ants and to kill them within a few days. It contains a potent chemical ingredient that works on contact and ingestion, going from ant to ant before it eliminates the entire colony. It not only works on fire ants but also other nuisance ants in various landscapes.
How Advion Fire Ant Bait Works
Advion by Syngenta uses indoxacarb in many of its ant control products. That's because the ingredient works quickly to eliminate ant colonies within days without the need to use additional products. It works through the transfer effect, a method in which the ants transfer the chemical to the colony and share it with other members. The ants infect each other, causing massive death in only three days.
Where to Use Advion Fire Ant Bait
Fire ants create huge mounds of dirt and sand in lawns as they build their nests. These mounds not only look bad but create dangerous conditions for people and pets in the vicinity. Use Advion Fire Ant Bait to kill the ants on residential lawns and landscapes around businesses. It's perfect for keeping the ants off golf courses and other recreational sites, including noncrop and nongrazed areas. It treats all the ants within the mounds in just one application.
