Amdro Granules Fire Ant Bait, Fire Ant Mound Treatment - 1lb

Outstanding product, I’ve used it many times before, living in Florida and Georgia. I now live in North Carolina, and after 9 years, last year I started seeing fire ant mounds on my property. The Amdro product is great, but is not carried by merchants in NC, that I have been able to find. I tried the Ortho fire ant killer, and the mound just moves 8-15 feet away. Amdro takes out the whole mound, like a champ.

Works well! Only thing that I have found to kill firearm mounds.

Crazy how fast the workers took the food. Within hours the activity was gone!!!

Once you open the bottle, Amdro starts to go stale. After about a month, it's not as effective if at all. Try to use as much as possible when you first open the bottle because that's when it works best. Amdro should make little packets so we can use a packet today, another next month, another next year, etc. The way it is now, it's expensive because you only need a small amount to kill a couple of ant hills but you have to buy a whole bottle and end up throwing the majority away. Amdro does indeed work when used correctly.

This actually works. Have used other fire ant treatments and they kill ants but a new mound pops up a couple of feet away from the old one. This actually killed the mound. I found this from other reviews. Very happy with the product.

This is the best Fire Ant poison that I have found. It is granular so it doesn't blow away in the wind and doesn't require being watered in. It works fast. This area the Fire Ants are very small, so following one back to a hive is not easy. I make it a lot easier by sprinkling a few grains in the direction that a Fire Ant is heading. The ant will carrying the granule back to the nest making it much easier to track. Then you just sprinkle about a tablespoon full around the outside of the nest and the ants form a conga line to grab a granule and take it back into the nest. Within 48 hours the nest is gone. I'm allergic to Fire Ants, so something this easy to use and effective is a God send.

Works really well

Fire Ants are a scourge in the south. Some ppl think they are allergic, as the bites raise a pustule, get red, itch, burn and take a real long time to heal...but everyone gets that....as fire ants bit and inject formic acid into the skin, causing a sore and pustule to form. Ive read where huge mound was formed ina FL nursing home, under a patient bed. It killed the lady in the bed! They should be eradicated asap. (Some common ants are native and good guys so be sure you have actual fire ants!). I dont care if ppl say that grits, boiling water etc work killing fire ants...those are old wives tales. Amdro works, and fast. However, use when soil is dry and its sunny for best results. Sprinkle, dont dump. (See directions). The ants start right away taking it to the Queen. Fun to watch. Usually, in an hour its all taken in. Do note that you should keep your dogs away till it is taken in the nest as dogs also like the carrier . Ive used Amdro for years in my FL properties to rid the terrible fire ants!
