A Clear Solution For Ant Control

It is estimated there are up to 10,000 trillion ants on earth, which means there are trillions of pest problems you could encounter around your property. Optigard ant gel bait from Syngenta Professional Pest Management offers effective control of a broad range of ants so you can help reduce the number of ants you face.

Optigard ant gel bait is known for its clear gel formulation that ants are attracted to and is easy for them to consume. It has proven to be accepted and palatable to a wide variety of ants. The powerful active ingredient, thiamethoxam, controls workers, brood and queens to ensure full colony elimination.

The Perfect Formula for Ant Elimination

The sugar-based gel matrix of Optigard ant gel bait is highly attractive to ants, which makes it extremely effective. Other baits can be too gooey, which prevents ants from transporting them back to the colony. However, the consistency of Optigard makes it easy for ants to carry to the colony and share with nestmates.

Optigard ant gel bait is also known for its durability under harsh environmental conditions. The formulation resists degradation caused by high temperatures and can retain its palatability for more than two weeks. Ants will continue to feed on Optigard ant gel bait even if the product dries out over time and the active ingredient becomes concentrated. This long-lasting effect reduces the chance of call backs and requires fewer applications.

Absolute Ant Annhilation

I have to admit. I decided to try this because of the flamethrower review,(if you don't know what I am talking about go back and read it, totally worth the minute or less of your time) he wasn't wrong. I had a horrible sugar/pharaoh/pain in the a.. ant problem. I had been surviving just fine, working from home, taking care of the little ones, I admittedly got a little lax about where I allowed them to enjoy their snacks, and as any parent knows kids are messy....really messy and ants are the epic scavengers of the insect world. So these little buggers found the tasty morsels my sweet toothed spawn left in the nooks and crannies I didn't find. One day there was peace and harmony, the sun shone through the windows...and life was good...the next we were overtaken by a massive army of micro sized immortal specks running across every surface I owned. Nothing and I mean NOTHING I tried would even put a dent in their numbers. Day after day, product after product- squish after squish they came in droves. It got to the point where I almost just handed over the weekly grocery grab to satisfy their insatiable appetite, hoping that if I made such a peace offering they would gladly take the atonement and go away. 30 days, about a box of borax, a pound of sugar and 800 useless ant baits later I turned to the internet and its vast ominous knowledge determined to find something effective that wouldn't also sacrifice myself and my sons in the process. Now my mother, as well meaning as she is, has drank the Terro kool-aid. She swears by the stuff. I never had luck with any of it, but according to her it was the only thing she's ever tried that worked. How I don't know. Especially considering that we share the same roof, do the ants on her side of the house truly gobble that stuff up or has she begun to go blind? Perhaps there is an infestation of advanced ants on the west wing of our establishment where I reside. But one thing I know for sure is this stuff works. Yes, I tried the Terro bait....dare I say my "advanced" ants even laughed at me as they turned up their nose to the gel packs which laid in waiting. I even left them out thinking they needed to ferment to be effective, I waited a week and they remained untouched. Then I came upon the magic of Amazon and the flamethrower review, if I said I didn't read it because I wasn't considering using one I'd be lying to you, but this option was far less cheaper, just as efficient and caused no threat of personal or property damage if you followed the packaging rules. I was hooked. Shipping was speedy. Ease of use? Superb. Why this review is asking me about flavor I can't be sure. But I would give it 5 stars as an ant. I used post it notes as "plates" and placed them out along the ant's favorite spot in the room. As badly as I wanted to wait and see if they came and fell for my trap, I was always told a watched pot never boils so I walked away....but oh man I wasn't prepared for the sight I saw when I came back.....I returned to a thanksgiving FEAST, ants swarming the glob of goo I was ecstatic they actually took it...mid dance I stopped myself....but would it work!? The headline to this review is absolutely true. It was pure euthanization of an entire colony. I set out 2 different "plates" and within 2 days tops there was balance restored within the room. Not an ant in sight, oh there were bodies here and there but no living soul graced the presence of my space, save for myself. It was again quiet and the peace was restored as the sun shone across the floor in the room.It's been a month since that day. And no ant dare set tarsal claw in this room.If you're concerned about the price trust me it's worth it. You get A LOT of product enough that I have even given some away to others in need of such a remedy to their pain. I still have enough to last a lifetime..well mine at least not the ants because once you bust this out they haven't very long...

5.0 out of 5 stars Only Thing That Works. Easy to Use. Fast. Effective. My Ants LOVE!!!
Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2019
This stuff is amazing. After years of battling little black ants and retreating in defeat after each encounter, I had enough. I have used every variety of Raid, box store barrier sprays, traps, granule and liquid baits like the useless Terro that no bugs are willing to ingest, Chinese magic chalk, homemade borax, soap, and vinegar remedies... Nothing works. The ants live inside my walls and whenever I find and plug up a hole, they find another harder to reach hole to march out of. Finally after a night's worth of research, I found this product. Professional grade, supposedly what exterminators use.

The first trial is on a thick trail of ants in my kitchen that had recently taken over my stove. As directed, I inject a small pea size amount along the trail and immediately the ants take to it, covering the whole thing. I inject more, along the whole path. Same result. I watched as their abdomens become extended and translucent while they drink up the delicious bait. A few couldn't stop drinking and died. But most made it back to their lair. It was hard not to spray them in their tracks, watching them eat and then go home. But the next day beneath the wall next to my water heater in the garage, quite far from the kitchen stove, I found a huge pile of dead little black ants. I had no idea there were so many. It was easily 10 times the amount that I baited in my kitchen. I vacuum them up. For three days after that initial feast, pile after pile of dead ants. I'd vacuum, then come back and there's another pile. I felt like I had finally won my first battle against these little guys and didn't see any ants for a few weeks though I suspected there were other colonies throughout my house.

Today, I spotted a small group searching for food. Immediately I put beads of this stuff along their track. I was lucky enough to be able to find their entrance this time, which was quite far away from where I spotted the initial group. I made sure to put plenty of this stuff at their doorstep to make it easy for them to eat, go home, and share with the rest of the colony, just in case the exploratory group doesn't make it back. Within a minute, the bait was covered in ants. Ants pouring out of the grate, scrambling to get a sip. I add more, more ants come out. I'm delighted as I watch them eat and grabbed my phone to take pictures and write this very real review. I'll be waiting with my vacuum tomorrow as I claim my second victory. The tide had finally turned in my favor.

In this set, you get 4 syringes full of this stuff. Each syringe is 1.06 oz. (30g). After two applications, I've only used about 1/5 of one syringe. You don't need much use sparingly. The syringes are capped. The cap comes off easily and can be recapped to save for later use. This pack of 4 will last a long time. I just moved into this house two years ago and suspect this had been a problem for a while if there are so many ants colonized in the walls. Hopefully this will help me win more battles and eventually eradicate the colonies living within my walls. But very glad that for the first time in two years, and after just 2 applications, I can leave food out and not have to worry about ants.

Tip: After all the ants are done, I let the gel dry. Then I scrape it off, throw it away. I then clean the areas thoroughly. I don't leave the gel out because I have small children and this is after all, poison. Also, I noticed it doesn't attract ants when it's dried up. So put a little bit at a time to feed the ants where you see them. Don't empty a whole syringe someplace and think you can just leave it there as bait for months.

Good luck!
