    Q
    How can you calm the smell of Martins Surrender Fire Ant Killer product ?
    A

    Unfortunately there is no way to neutralize the smell of Martins Surrender Fire Ant Killer. It should only last a couple days outdoors. We would advise storing it somewhere you do not often visit. You can try Earth Care Odor Remover Bag but overall anything with Acephate is going to have this strong potent smell

    Q
    Can Martins Surrender Fire Ant Killer be applied near wells? The product label mentions avoiding surface water, but not sure how this will affect being on a well.
    A

    Since Martins Surrender Fire Ant Killer is only labeled for direct mound treatments of fire ants and not a liquid concentrate or granule insecticide that is mixed with water or required to be watered in, there should be no concern applying to properties with a well. We do recommend keeping 5ft away from the well opening as a precaution.

    Q
    Will Martins Surrender Fire Ant Killer kill the queens?
    Since it is a contact killer, I'm assuming it may not kill the queen. Is this accurate?
    A

    Martin's Surrender Fire Ant Killer is not considered a bait since it does not include specific food attractants. The ants contact this product and ingest the active ingredient when they groom. So while this does not cause traditional transfer like other baits, you will still see fast results that usually result in colony collapse.
