Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait
By Donna on 11/07/2010
It took awhile for the Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait to work. I have tried everything in the supermarket all summer long and nothing worked. I've tried borax, bay leaves, ant traps 3x's, nothing! It was very expensive to buy the bait and containers. But I now have no ant's.

Works Pretty Well
By Anonymous on 07/14/2013
Hint: put this liquid in a WELL MARKED!! smaller bottle and dispense it with a medicine dropper, the glass/plastic tube with bulb we used to call an eyedropper. Ants seem to like this bait much better than the Gourmet Gel, which dries up in seconds in our dry summer climate anyway. I tested the liquid side by side with the Terro boric acid baits and the ants were cautious at first but eventually came to it in bigger numbers than to the Terro bait. I think it may be more effective than the Terro bait, and is much cheaper when bought by the quart. I use it in the Ant Cafe bait stations, make lines of droplets (in places where nothing else is likely to get into the bait, like the little space between the door of the microwave and the counter, just off a favorite ant highway), and refilled ant stakes with the liquid (our ants empty the new ant stakes in a few days). A few drops of water from the eyedropper revives baits that dry up. So far, seems to be good stuff.

Wow great product!
By Chris on 06/14/2011
I was on my wits end and up to my knees in ants. MaxForce traps worked for round 1 ants but then when round 2 ants showed up they didn't want any part of them so I decided to try this product. I was a little skeptical at first seeing how watery it was but within a week the ants were all gone!

Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait

So far, it appears to be working well. Ants were attracted to the bait stations right away. I have seen less ants this year as compared to last year without any bait stations. I will give it another month to see if this bait will keep the ants away.

You have to be patient and remove other sources of sugar
By Linda on 09/23/2021
I initially gave this bait a 1 star review because it wasn't attracting any ants. I then wrapped all my citrus and oak trees with tape and smeared tape with tangle guard goo to deny ants access to these trees (this works!). Once the ants could not access their favored source of sugar, they eventually entered the traps and started eating this bait. But it took about 2 or more weeks for ants to move this bait. During that time about half of the bait evaporated. I think, but am not sure, that the result of the evaporation concentrated the sugar in the bait by about two fold. So it could be that the ants are now entering the traps because the bait is two times sweeter. Don't know for sure since I didn't do a controlled experiment.
