This product combines two active ingredients for unique 2-way killing action. It’s easy to use and the unique two-way formula provides up to three months control. Use on lawns and landscaped areas and around flowers, shrubs and trees. Foraging worker ants think the bait is food and carry it into the mound to feed their extensive colonies.
