I purchased this duo - the insect regulator and the permithrin and applied according to the directions, with my target pest being ticks. However, I have a lot of ants on the property with little ant hills and the sprays did not knock that population down at all. I'm wondering if it worked for the ticks (since the ants are still there).
Yes, both products in the Tick Control Kit are labeled for ants and many other insects. The Permethrin SFR will only kill those insects that contact a treated surface or that are sprayed directlly though. The Archer IGR will help to disrupt the life cycle of the and ticks ants but this will take time.
