Summary: Bye Bye Ants
Comment: This is the most amazing product that I have used. I put in it two areas where I either knew or suspected that there were ants inside my house. Within 15-20 minutes, there were hundreds of them in a feeding frenzy. The secret is to resist the temptation to spray them, since they eventually head back to the nest where apparently they infect others and where they all die. So far, it has taken a little less than 3 days for the hundreds to drop down to a handful. Some didn't make it back to the nest. This is clearly a very effective product. You can get it for $2 and change at your local hardware store.

Summary: Enough to kill an army of ants!
Comment: I love this product, it works, its simple... Life goes on.
Seriously though I hate ants and when hundreds appeared in my bathroom and kitchen I had to take action. I started with those off-the-shelf ant baits using some active ingredient that I had never heard of. Not many ants fell for it, I assume those that did were the stupid ants. Then a friend on Twitter recommended the Terro liquid. From the moment I put those little pieces of paper with some Terro down in the bathroom and the kitchen the ants couldn't get enough... At least until they were all dead.
I have a ton left too, if they are dumb enough to come back.

Summary: Other ant baits may work, but ants will actually eat Terro
Comment: Such a simple ant bait, but by liberty of being a liquid that you drop onto pieces of paper, it's much easier for the ants to find, and they LOVE this stuff. I've tried other ant baits, but they never seem to work. I'm sure that poison is poison, but if the ants have to leave their trail and go into a complicated trap in order to get the bait, more often than not they won't bother. In contrast, you can place Terro right onto the trail, and the ants will find it immediately and you can watch them swarm around the drop and start to eat.
The only drawback is that the ants will increase in number temporarily, coming in droves to eat the bait, but honestly, that's the only way to make sure you get them all. Spraying them with Raid is immediate gratification, but you only kill some workers and there's always more to replace them. I'd recommend placing Terro indoors someplace like a bathroom where ants would only be a nuisance, not in a kitchen where they might get distracted and go after your food instead. Plus, Terro is a poison and it wouldn't really be a good idea in the first place.

Summary: Use aluminum foil squares with the Terro
Comment: I've tried those little cans of ant poison, but my ants just laugh at them and keep on going. I finally got some Terro, and it did the job.
I cut 2" square pieces of aluminum foil, and put them where I find ants. Then I squeeze a few drops of Terro on the foil. Don't put it on the foil and THEN try to position the foil square--it drips. It does not work particularly fast, since ants carry it back to their nests, and the whole colony dines on it and croaks. I've seen as many as 10 ants around the little pool of Terro, gorging themselves and returning again and again. In a few days, ants gone.
The stuff just works, and it doesn't contain a bunch of poisons you can't pronounce.
