I been fighting sweet ants, those little ones, in my kitchen for
years, trying spraying and Tat and Ortho and baits with no luck, this
year they are real, real bad getting everywhere as when they lay their
scent they all seem to come back forever. I mean my cubbords, re
sealed cereal boxes, my table, chair counters, me in my chair ect.
Yesterday I got Grants baits and Combat baits and put them both out at
maybe 5pm, I had both brands next to each other and noticed at 6pm a
feeding frenzy on the Combat bait, I checked both boxes for active
ingrediant and both are the same so I guess they like the attractant
in Combat better, and they were still feeding at 11pm which is rare as
I always remembered at night they hibernated. Well today for the first
time in years NO ANTS. A relief. You guys know me, and I dont work or
sell for Combat, this stuff worked and im real suprised and happpy.
Now I have to do the Mice somehow. Now I can take my cereal out of the
deep freeze!

I have the little *******s infiltrating our dishwasher, even when it's
*closed*, and the dishwasher and sink are in an island in the middle of the
kitchen, smack in the middle of a very large concrete slab, surrounded on all
sides by ceramic tile. And they're not getting to the island *over* the tile;
they're following some subterranean path. Finding and eliminating (or baiting)
their path of entry is virtually impossible unless I remove the island (or the
flooring inside)... not fun.
