Key Features and Benefits
Effective Colony Elimination: AMDRO Ant Block is designed to attract foraging worker ants, carrying the bait back to the colony. Once the bait is shared within the colony, including with the queen, the entire colony is eliminated within a few days. This eradicates the area's visible ants and the entire ant population.
Perimeter Protection: The granules are intended for perimeter treatment around your home or other structures. Applying a light sprinkle of AMDRO Ant Block around the foundation creates a protective barrier that stops ants before they can enter your home.
Easy Application: AMDRO Ant Block is easy to apply with minimal effort. Sprinkle the granules in a band around the perimeter of your home. No special equipment is needed, and there is no need to mix or dilute the product.
Long-Lasting Control: A single application of AMDRO Ant Block can provide up to three months of protection against ants. The bait remains effective outdoors after rain, providing continuous defense against ant invasions.
Broad Spectrum Ant Control: AMDRO Ant Block is effective against various ant species, including Argentine ants, carpenter ants, and fire ants. This broad-spectrum control makes it versatile for ant management in different regions and environments.
Active Ingredient—Hydramethylnon: The active ingredient in AMDRO Ant Block, Hydramethylnon, is a slow-acting insecticide that allows the bait to be spread throughout the colony before it takes effect. This ensures that the bait reaches and kills the queen and other ants responsible for reproducing and sustaining the colony.
How to Use AMDRO Ant Block
1. Identify the Treatment Area: Determine the perimeter area where you need to apply the bait. This typically includes a 1-2 foot wide band around your home's foundation or other structures.
2. Apply the Bait:
- Evenly sprinkle AMDRO Ant Block granules around your home's perimeter, creating a continuous barrier. Apply the bait directly onto the ground, focusing on areas where ants will likely forage, such as along paths, near doors, and around windows.
- Apply when the ground is dry, and ants are actively foraging for best results.
3. Reapply as Necessary: Reapply AMDRO Ant Block every three months or sooner if you notice renewed ant activity. If heavy rain occurs shortly after application, you may need to reapply the bait.
4. Monitor Ant Activity: After applying the AMDRO Ant Block, monitor the treated area for ant activity. You should see a noticeable reduction in the number of ants within a few days, with complete colony elimination occurring shortly after that.
Safety and Handling
- Storage: Store AMDRO Ant Block in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
- Precautions: Although AMDRO Ant Block is designed to be used outdoors, keep it out of reach of children and pets. Avoid applying the bait directly on edible plants or areas where food is prepared or consumed.
- Environmental Precautions: Do not apply AMDRO Ant Block directly into water sources or where runoff might enter water bodies, as it can harm aquatic life.
