Fire ants are an aggressive species and build large sand mounds in residential and commercial landscapes. With Antixx Fire Ant Bait, it only takes a few days to eliminate an entire ant colony. It contains a highly active ingredient that targets the ants and lasts for up to 60 days. It can be used most anywhere fire ants are found and also works to control harvester ants in residential, commercial and recreational settings.
How Antixx Fire Ant Bait Works
Antixx Fire Ant Bait contains an ingredient called spinosad, which is extremely palatable for the ants. It's derived from soil-dwelling bacteria known as Saccharopolyspora spinosa and works quickly and effectively against many insect species. Antixx contains a research-backed percentage of the active ingredient to knock out fire ants, including the queen, in a matter of days. After consuming the bait, the ants will become lethargic within 24 hours and die about 36 hours later.
Where to Use Antixx for Fire Ants
Use Antixx Fire Ant Bait anywhere fire and harvester ants are seen. It's not only effective at controlling fire ants on home lawns but also commercial growing areas like greenhouses and gardens. It's perfect for getting rid of fire ants in turfgrass areas and noncrop sites like roadsides and rights-of-way. It also works to kill and control fire ants in recreational areas such as:
- Golf courses

Target Pests
Antixx is labeled for the effective control of fire ants and harvester ants in residential, commercial, industrial and recreational settings. The queen ant typically resists chemical baits, but Antixx has a patented formula that fools the queen. It can take anywhere between 24 and 36 hours for the entire colony, queen included, to become infected after applying the bait. Within three to 14 days, all members of the colony will be exterminated.
