5 out of 5 stars Only ant killer to consider   September 11, 2008

After using Orthene for a couple of years with wonderful results, I thought I would try a less expensive but highly advertised product. It was only maybe 30% as effective as Orthene so I'll pay the extra $$ and get a reliable product that works 100%.


5 out of 5 stars Very Effective!   May 11, 2007


I finally found a great rental villa/apartment after months of searching. Imagine my horror to discover (after moving in) that it had a Fire Ant infestation. It was terrible. They were everywhere. Even spraying insecticides inside and out would only abate the problem for a few days. THEY JUST KEPT COMING!!!

I did some research online and saw good reviews for this product and decided to give it a try. I used it outside around the Villa where I saw Ant trails, and honestly, the ant problem stopped almost immediately. It has been a month now and other than reapplying the product a day or two after heavy rains, the problem seems to be under control for now.

I can't say whether the Ants will eventually develop and immunity to the product but so far so good.

Believe me, it's worth a try!
