Seeing ants inside your home can be frustrating, but we're here to help you get your space back. It's time to kill the entire invasion. This bait works by attracting foraging ants who carry the food back to the nest, effectively killing the queen and the colony.
*Excludes fire, carpenter and harvester ants.
Ants have their place, but that place isn't on your kitchen counters. When they come indoors, Ortho Orthene Ant Killer Ant Bait provides a simple, effective solution to help you get your space back. Foraging ants are attracted to the bait—often within 30 minutes of placement—and carry it back to the nest to share with the colony. This kills the queen and the colony at the source. You should see a noticeable reduction in ant activity within 3 to 7 days. It's time to confidently restore balance to your home and take back your space.
