Will MaxForce granular work in indoor bait stations? We have approx, 1/8th inch very dark brown to black ants that swarm from under baseboards onto carpeted areas. As a kid we used to call them either sugar ants or piss ants. Would like to use bait stations around small indoor dogs. Recommendation?
Yes, Maxforce Complete Granular Bait is labeled to be used for a variety of species of ants and will work great in the Bait Plate Stations for indoor use. These Bait Plate Stations allows insects to access both a granule bait and gel bait in one station for their dietary needs.
Maxforce Complete Granular Bait is safe for pets when applied as directed. In addition to treating indoors, Maxforce Complete Brand Granular Insect Bait may be sprinkled around structures and/or applied to refillable/serviceable bait stations as outlined below. Be sure to treat areas where target insects have been observed such as porches, patios, driveways, sidewalks, flower gardens, landscape timbers and around trees, wood piles, air conditioning units and garbage receptacles. I've provided the link to the recommend bait stations below.
Please review our Ant Identification Guide for information on how to identify the specific any species you have. Using a residual spray both inside the home as well as the exterior foundation of the home would also be a good addition to an Ant Treatment Program.
