insulation is the ideal dry and warm spot for ant nest building.

Found this product a couple of years ago and reluctantly gave it a try (the price was a bit of an issue). The ants in our area thrive on sweet foods, so they were instantly attracted to the bait ... pushing each other out of the way to get to it. Could not believe the results ... they just vanished almost overnight. We started using it not just in the house, but the garden as well to keep them as far from the house as possible.

It works and it works well ... so the exorbitant cost (works out at $2,000/kg) was justifiable. However, it is important to note that, just like garden weeds, it's not a forever solution. The colony dies off but ants from the surrounding areas in the neighbourhood do eventually notice the "Vacancy" sign and will move in. It's a matter of then killing them off before they start bringing in the good china again.

Took of cap, pointed it where I wanted to put a bead and pushed plunger. It resisted. I pushed a little harder. It still did not move. I pushed a little harder. It went "pop" and sprayed the entire contents out in one go. At this point, I have no idea on whether the cockies are going to like it or not, but they have plenty to try.
