For the control of fire ants around buildings, gardens, grazing areas, lawns, and public areas as per the Directions for Use.

Key Features:

  • Highly Palatable: Ensures rapid uptake by fire ants.
  • Total Colony Control: Achieves complete colony eradication in as little as 72 hours.
  • Kills Worker and Queen Ants: Targets all stages of the colony.
  • Versatile Usage: Suitable for multiple environments.
  • Convenient and Easy to Use: Simple application process.

Fast, Effective Fire Ant Control:

Advion Fire Ant Bait is a corn grit and oil bait matrix that provides unbeatable control of fire ants, ensuring proven customer satisfaction. Research shows that Advion can achieve total colony control in as little as 72 hours and can be used year-round to keep areas free from this aggressive, painful, and invasive pest.

With just one application, Advion Fire Ant Bait controls foraging ants within 12 to 48 hours and achieves total colony control within 72 hours. After two applications, year-long colony control is typically achieved in most locations.

Benefits:

  • Superior Control: Effective against both monogyne and polygyne colonies.
  • Comprehensive Eradication: Kills workers, queens, and larvae.
  • Rapid Results: Colony control within 3-14 days, depending on nest numbers and population densities.
  • Versatile Application: Suitable for agricultural, commercial, domestic, industrial, public service areas, forests, grazing, non-crop areas, lawns, and ornamental garden beds.

Convenience:

  • Easy Application: Comes in a 1 kg shaker pack.
  • Effective Dosage: Apply 15 g per nest, 1 meter around the mound.
  • Minimal Follow-Up: Typically requires only spot treatments for high-density nest clusters.

How It Works:

Advion® Fire Ant Bait contains indoxacarb, a non-repellent active ingredient, in a highly palatable corn grit and oil bait matrix. Proper placement maximizes transfer to the nest, killing the queen, larvae, and ants. Worker ants feed on the bait and transfer indoxacarb to the brood and queen, achieving total colony control within 3-14 days, with significant reduction in worker activity within 48 hours.

Tips for Use:

  • Optimal Timing: Apply in the morning when ants are actively foraging (soil temperature >15.5°C and air temperature between 24°C and 32°C).
  • Mound Treatment: Do not disturb the mound; apply bait around the mounds, not on top.
  • Dosage: Apply 15 g/mound (approx. 4 level tablespoons) uniformly 1 meter around the nest mound.
  • Application Frequency: No more than 4 applications per year.
  • Weather Considerations: Use fresh bait and avoid application if the surface is wet or if rain is forecast within 24-36 hours.
  • Follow-Up: If needed, make follow-up applications at 12-16 week intervals.

Fire ants often nest in open spaces close to structures. In colder months, nests are more visible as they seek sunlight for warmth
