Ant Gels

Yes... this works on CARPENTER ANTS!! We had a massive infestation in our house and this cleared it up in a single day. The ants were immediately drawn in an devoured the bait. No sign of them now for 24 hours. My only note is WEAR GLOVES... the product comes out very quickly and its not supposed to get on your skin. Keep some paper towels nearby in case you spill. (Not an issue-- just a helpful tip!) Will be our go-to pest solution for this problem in the future.

The Combat Ant Killing Gel is a practical solution for dealing with ant problems both indoors and outdoors. The gel is easy to apply in small areas like corners, cracks, and along entry points where ants are commonly seen. After placement, ants are attracted to the gel and carry it back, which helps address the issue at the source over time. It works quietly without strong odors, making it suitable for indoor use. The tube design allows for controlled application without creating a mess, and a small amount goes a long way. Overall, it’s an effective and convenient option for managing ants with minimal effort.

This stuff works really well. We were dealing with ants and noticed a difference pretty quickly after using it. It’s easy to apply, and the ants are drawn to it, which helps take care of the problem at the source instead of just temporarily getting rid of them. You might see a little more activity at first as they come to it, but after that it really starts to clear things up. Overall, very effective and something I would keep on hand.

I’ve used Combat Max Ant Killing Gel before and had it knock out sugar ants within hours—bait goes down, a dozen or so ants swarm it, and that’s the end of the problem. This time, I started with an old tube that had been sitting for a few years. A bunch of ants did take it, but many died right next to the bait. The colony relocated larvae and dragged this out into a multi-day headache. I tossed the old gel and opened a new one. It worked better—ants took it again, and activity slowed down fast. But even after six days, I’m still seeing a couple stragglers wandering around. I’ve got both sweet and protein baits down, and I’m prepping to follow up with Delta Dust and seal off their entry points. Fresh gel definitely works better than old stuff, but this isn't always a one-and-done product. Be ready to follow through if the colony doesn’t fold immediately.

Oh my gosh! It’s the early beginnings of spring in the Midwest, where winter battles with spring weather, yet the life clock of ants knows it's time to wake up. Every year, I deal with the same problem, ANTS. I have hired people; I have treated the suspect areas where I see them enter my home all summer long, in hopes of finally stopping the colonies. Yet, every spring they’re BACK! I repeat the same rituals of buying everything on the shelf, hoping this will be the year that I eradicate the ants at my patio door. I started seeing a couple of stray ants this week, so I ordered "Combat Indoor and Outdoor Ant Killing Gel, 27 Gram" from Amazon along with a handful of other products. I placed a regular ant trap where I know they will start coming in, not expecting to see them for another couple of weeks. On top of the regular ant trap, I squeezed a dollop of Combat on top of the trap. Within half an hour, the top of the trap was covered with small ants. The Combat, I have to say, works amazingly well. There is no odor. The stuff is like a soft glue, but the ants do not stick to it, so they can feed, return to the colony, and share the product with the queen(s). It is almost clear, and by putting it in the trap, it drew ants to the bait as well, but more importantly, I can pick it up in a few days and discard it without a mess to clean up. I will buy this product again for sure!

This Combat Ant Poison Gel does a better job attracting the ants and minimizing their activity than other brands and methods I have tried, but it never truly completely eliminates the ants. I have had success with this gel attracting many of the ants out of the walls and outlets where they always seem to make their way in, especially every spring, but I wish it kept them gone longer. I live in condos that have exterminators spray along the walls outside every few weeks or so, and I try to use products like this to keep them under control inside. After using this gel the activity does calm down for a while, maybe even a few weeks, but then it slowly starts back up, so obviously the queens are not getting the poison. I wonder if this is killing the ants too quickly before they can bring enough back to the nest. Living in WA state I am limited on what options I have to buy. A lot of people claim Advion works well, but it won't ship here through Amazon, and isn't available at any stores locally. I believe this is because Advion isn't registered with the Washington State Department of Agriculture. So until I can get my hands on something better, this Combat gel seems to work better than the other stuff I have tried, such as Terro, Raid, Ortho, etc.

Works really fast. Couldn’t believe it. Versatile and safe to place in all areas of house. No More ants in hours.

To begin with this review, let me say that i have ordered the "Combat Ant Killing Gel" in the past as pictured and i must tell you it was a very effective product. It was so good that you only needed a small dab and ants were gone for months. Why do i say "was"? There seem to be some confusion with this product today. After doing some extensive research i finally solved the mystery as to why we have a huge majority of good reviews and bad reviews. Here is what i have discovered, like i mentioned before i have used this product before and had a overwhelming success. In the past week i had placed a new order for the " Combat Ant Killing Gel" the package came in a timely manner. At first i did not see a problem until i started to use this product. I noticed from the start that this product wasn't as effective as the one i tried before. I was baffled i couldn't understand as to why the ants didn't even touch the stuff, at times they will consume the products , other times they will simply ignore the product and walk pass me laughing. So i double checked my order and discovered something i didn't noticed before i started to use the product.in fact when i saw the words "Combat" i didn't dwell on me it was a different product packaging until i noticed that instead of saying "Combat Ant Killing Gel". What it said was "Combat Source Kill Max A2". at first i contacted the seller to see if they had sent me the wrong product. while i was waiting for a response i noticed that the ants were still ignoring the product better yet after examining the area with a magnifying glass i can actually see the ants sitting back in their lounge chairs drinking margaritas. let me get Serious Now & get back to my review. i went one step further and contact the manufacturer of the "Combat source kill max A2" product. I wanted to know if the "Combat Ant Killing Gel" and the "Combat Source Kill Max A2" were 2 different products? Here is what i have discovered, The manufacturer of the "Combat Ant Killing Gel in which is called "Henkel" explain to me that they no longer make the "Combat Ant Killing Gel" and that in fact the product was replaced with a product Now called "Combat Source Kill Max A2". Here in Amazon it is still being advertised as "Combat Ant Killing Gel" all thou some vendors still have a supply in hand other simply are shipping out the new "Combat Source Kill Max A2". inwhich i find the this new product to be useless not as effective as the Old "Combat Ant Killing Gel". If your ordering this product keep in mind that the product with the Barcode "023400 973064" is infact for the product called "Combat Source Kill Max A2" After expressing the non effective use of this product to the manufacturer they informed me that they offer a better and more potent product.They offered me to send me a coupon for me to try out this new product. For those who got the new product instead of the one being advertized as "Combat Ant Killing Gel" you can simply ask for a refund even thou you tried the product. As to the confusion as some people getting the "Combat Ant Killing Gel" and some getting the "Combat Source Kill Max A2" instead. it's the responsibility of the seller to check and make sure that the product they are shipping is the same product being advertized. Having said that i am giving this product "Combat Source kill Max A2" a one star. They do not manufacture the original "Combat Ant Killing Gel" as the picture suggest anymore it has been replaced with " Combat Source Kill Max A2" a weaker yet less effective version. I hope this review has cleared up some confusion. *** I have informed Vendor inwhich they notified Amazon of the confusion and the Picture has been revised to "Combat Source kill Max A2" ***I hope this has clear up some confusion Update: Sept. 2016 Since my review Amazon has corrected the information and posted the correct image of the newer product, But keep in mind that the product rating system is still off due to the fact that the reviews from original product (back in 2006) is mixed in with the reviews of this new product.

Had a problem with Ants entering the kitchen, via a wall vent. Tried various products, nothing worked🥹. Tried this stuff, Ants gone, this is great stuff.

Works very well, and lower price per quantity than others

I buy most of my products buy the product description and the review's. The product descriptions does not discriminate between what ants it will kill and what ant it won't. The review's mention Pharaoh ants several times that's is why I purchased it. On opening the packaging in small print it says excludes Pharaoh ants. Totally useless to me now and I bought two packets.

Tinkering in my garden the other day tidying a huge bed that accommodates my 12 foot tall beautiful banana trees and was horrified to discover an absolutely colossal black ants nest! This thing was like 4 meters long and a meter and a half wide. They were also branching out and creating little pilot nests on some of my treasured Bonsai plant pots!! I couldn't see all the entrances so I topped up the entire area with compost 8 inches deep to force them to tunnel out and reveal themselves. Within 30 minutes I literally saw thousands upon thousands of ants pouring out of various sections in the bed, maybe 9 locations in total. And that showed me where to put the gel. And even a splurge right up on the trunk of one banana tree close to where a new bunch of bananas was beginning to flower that the ants were all over. They absolutely devoured the stuff covering it so densely all you could see was a black writhing masses. Within about an hour they had consumed TWO entire tubes of this gel and I assume carried a ton of it home deep into the nest to feed their chief Empress egg layer. I started the whole process around 7:00 p.m. in the evening, and by the time I went out 6:00 a.m the next morning there was not a single ant in sight. Two tubes had wiped out this entire huge colony in one evening. The stuff is pretty expensive but if you're serious about getting rid of ants in your garden this will obliterate them.

The Combat Ant Killing Gel is the "Trojan Horse" of pest control. Instead of the instant satisfaction of a spray that only kills the ants you can see, this gel uses a slow-acting poison called Fipronil. The foragers find the sweet, high-moisture gel, mistake it for a feast, and carry it back to the heart of the colony to feed the larvae and the queen. It’s a patient man’s game; you’ll see ants swarming the bait for a few days, but that's exactly what you want—it’s the "last supper" that wipes out the entire nest from the inside. The syringe applicator is a masterstroke for precision, letting you inject the gel directly into those tiny cracks in the skirting boards or behind the kitchen sink where ants actually live. Because it’s a gel rather than a spray, you aren’t coating your kitchen in a fine mist of chemicals.
