Combat Max 2 in 1 Ant Bait Station, 4 Count

This product works well! We noticed ants coming out as the tempuratures started to warm up in the spring, just placed these on the counter and floors along the walls and ants were attracked to them pretty quickly. The ants swormed around them for a few hours and we haven't seen them since. There is no odor and they do not leak. I'd say they are a great value considering how fast they worked and if we had to hire a company to come out to treat the ant issue.

I don't usually leave reviews, but I had to come here and let you know that if you're on the fence, this product actually works.We didn't just have an ant problem, we had an ant crisis. It didn't matter if we had food crumbs or not, they always showed up after the warm weather arrived. Water cups? Full of ants. Toothpaste spot? Ants. Dirty kids clothes with a spot of food? Ants. Don't get me started on other small, dead bugs.Within one day of setting ONE trap, the amount of ants had significantly decreased. By day two, they were non-existent. I can't tell you how happy I was to have a bedside cup of water that I could actually drink from again!

These are nothing short of MAGIC!!We had a medium size black ant problem in our living room. After placing these down It looked like opening night at a club with standing room only!! Don't panic if you suddenly see a ton of ants.It just means these are doing their job. Stand back and let them work their magic! The ants were gone within an hour!! And so far have not been back as of two days since placing the baits. Worth their weight in gold!!!

I purchased this to see if it could get rid of some pesky sugar ants that invade my bathroom periodically when we get heavy rains for a weeks or so. I usually use sugar and boric acid dissolved in warm water which works but usually takes upward of two weeks. I've tried Terro baits which work for a short period to attract ants but then they sidestep the baits and never seem to kill the entire colony. After placing several of these along the ant trails, they attracted lots of ants within the first two days. After that, the ants would come and gather in small groups along the trails and just sit there. After about a week and a 1/2, I disturbed the groups and they moved but not in their usual way. I ended up squishing them and wiping the trials. After that, I saw a few ants walking but it dwindled down to none. All in all about 2 weeks. They haven't returned. I would say this product worked great.Pros:1. Works well.2. The container is easy to handle without getting poison on your hands.Cons:1. You have to break a tab off to expose the poison to the ants. If you don't press it just right, it won't break cleanly.2. The gel inside dries up in about two weeks (which was OK since the ants were almost dead by then) but if you need to have it longer you may have issues.3. You can't find it in stores so you have to order online.I would purchase gain.

So I guess the people who got this product had to usher their ants into the holes? Our little sugar ants wanted absolutely nothing to do with any of the four traps I placed in the bathroom and bedroom where these pesky irritating ants s have tried to take over. I have a clean house so I’m assuming they like the moisture of the bathrooms? But I literally picked up an ant, placed it on a trap and sat motionless for 5 mins. It got to a point where I actually put the ant directly into the trap. I was desperate. It looks as though the product has completely dried up. The ant simply walked around in circles for 10 mins inside the trap. It went nowhere near the bait. I actually set up my phone to capture the ant’s movements after I left the room. It literally went nowhere near the bait and eventually got out never to return. I never saw an ant anywhere near it. And I was picking ants off my legs at night when going to bed. And when I say my house is clean, you could eat off the floors if there were no ants on it. I clean the floors and bathrooms twice a day and used to clean houses for a living for years. I do not recommend these due to the fact that they don’t work. And were dried out when delivered.

Finally, ants are gone! We kept getting ants in our back room, which has 3 exterior walls. I tried my usual single bait stations, along with constant cleaning and re-caulking alone the floorboards, spraying stuff even, but those little buggers kept on coming. I was getting so irritated. Then I read online that not all ants are attracted to the same types of bait, so, I found Combat Max which uses two different formulas, and the ants were gone in one day! Finally.

Three of the bait stations broke off in the wrong place, rendering them unusable. Please find a better way to activate these stations because I can only use one of them. Will have to find a different brand.Update: I’m revising my original review from one star to three stars. While three of them broke in the wrong place as mentioned above, the one that broke correctly worked really well. So I decided to move the one bait station around the house to take care of all the ant colonies. Bottom line, it works, but COMBAT: please fix your bait stations so they can all be used. For customers like me, maybe it would be best to buy Fipronil and use empty bait stations that you fill yourself.NOTE: These work well for sugar ants. They may not work for all types of ants.

This was FIVE minutes after I put it down. The ants are already picking it up to bring back to their colonies. I am also very confused how people aren’t opening these correctly, they were so simple to crack open. I’ve struggled finding ant poison where they actually eat it, but I’ll be buying these from now on.
