Works everytime
By Marc on 01/03/2020
I had a large black carpenter ant problem and while I don't like killing anything it's to much to see 60 of them swarming all over the place, when they started to crawl up onto me while I was sleeping on the couch & bite that pretty much did it. So I started to use this brand a few years ago and I put out like 3 traps and just let them find it and let them take it back to the nest, in a little over a week problem solved.

Fantastic ant bait.
By Barney on 05/22/2020
I fought carpenter ants for two years. They were climbing the outside brick and going up and under the brick molding. I tried powder. Liquid spray and dry bait. Nothing worked. I applied this along their trails and no more ants. 2 weeks now a.d still no ants. Works great and sure cheaper than dropping the porch ceiling.

Dead Ants
By John on 04/17/2020
Living in the woods in Northwest Georgia there are many Carpenter Ants. When I first moved in I had a bad problem with the Carpenter Ants and used Maxforce Ant Gel and after three days I so no more ants, so once every year I apply one or two tubes of the ant gel to keep a Carpenter Ant free house.

Yay... the ants are gone
By Wendy on 06/05/2020
Last year we thought we got rid of wood ants through spraying. This spring they came back with a vengeance, and I did not want to spray toxins into the house again. We used MaxForce Fleet Ant Bait Gel and with no mess were able to inject the gel into the wood beams of our ceilings. After 1 week we found some ants had moved to a new beam, used more gel.... now it's been a month and no more ants or "sawdust" from the ants. It worked. And DoMyOwn was very prompt and helpful

Another amazing product
By Glen on 05/08/2020
Had large black ants appear this spring for the first time. They first showed up in the dishwasher! Put some of this under the dishwasher as well as outside on the deck nearest the kitchen. Within 2 days the activity ceased, and the bodies of ants appeared. This stuff is as effective as the roach stuff I bought here a few years ago. The syringe based stuff they sell is 1000 times more effective than anything you can buy in a spray can. Highly recommend this product as well as anything else that DoMyOwn sells.

Maxforceant bait
By Davemanley on 05/08/2020
Worked overnight! Bought a pack of four. Used one. After 1st application at entry points. That run was no.longer a issue. Could have used less and gotten desired results. Now on 2nd of 4th tube. Very effective I also used for 1st time (at same time) diatomaceous earth. Very pleased with results from both.

Very effective
By Suzanne on 05/08/2020
Service was excellent. Application was easy. About an hour after I applied the gel, more ants than I had observed before appeared to feed on the bait. The next morning, there were quite a few dead ones in the area. Haven't seen any activity since I treated a week ago. It's important to take the time to observe exactly where the ants seem to be entering. I was able to treat a rather small, but critical area with only two of the four cartridges. The gel made it easy to contain the chemical to a small area without exposing myself. I highly recommend this product.

This stuff works!

Works!
By Dale on 08/17/2020
We had carpenter ants and tried many things to get rid of them. Was about to call a professional company. After reading about baits, found this at DoMyOwn and thought why not since it is less expensive than a pest control company. Within a week, no more carpenter ants. Several weeks later, still no carpenter ants. I am very pleased with this product and the small amount of product and time it took to rid the house of the carpenter ants. Glad I found this company to buy from. It is now my go to source for pest control.

Carpenter Ants
By Rick on 06/26/2020
I live on a lake with a heavily wooded lot in NE Indiana. A few weeks ago I saw big (3/4 inch) black carpenter ants in my garage and sunroom. Having had a previous bad experience with these ants at another house, I knew I needed to act. I ordered both Maxforce Fleet Ant Bait Gel and Advance Carpenter Ant Bait. When I received my order, I placed both products in my garage. The ants ignored the Advance Carpenter Ant Bait and went immediately to the Maxforce gel. Within a day, I saw ants in my garage walking around in circles and acting spastic. A day later, I noticed that a rotted stump about 40 feet from my house was crawling with carpenter ants. There were ants and saw dust all around the stump. I placed both products around the stump. The ants were immediately attracted to both products. The next day I saw many dead ants around the stump and no live ants. Since then, I have not had any ants in my garage or house.

Amazing, so far.
By Rich on 08/14/2020
I found the trail of ants into the house and put some gel at the entry point into a narrow space at the bottom of a corner board. Immediately, ants were in the gel. The gel kept disappearing and I kept reapplying, thinking it was drying up. After three days, the application stopped drying up. That's when I realized it wasn't drying up but it was being carried off to the colony. No more ants. Only used 1/3 of one tube.

It kills them all
By Franky1980 on 08/15/2020
As someone commented; Carpenter ants seem not to be attracted to the gel. To be honest I never saw one baiting it, but suddenly in the next three or less days after the first application they start showing dead all around.

Use it all the time
By Richard on 09/25/2020
This is the best stuff for ants...seriously. We have a huge problem every years in Los Angeles. A few dabs of this on the ant trails, they're usually gone in a few hours and they don't return. Been using it for years and I hope they don't try to "improve" it.

Carpenter Ant Problem
By Jerry on 10/02/2020
Max force was terrific in eliminating our carpenter ant problem. From the first application the ants covered the gel and took it back to their nest. After another application more came and after about 3 days there were no more ants. We would buy this product again. We still have some left.

Carpenter Ants
By Terry on 05/21/2021
Best stuff I've used to get rid of Carpenter Ants. Ran out of my prior tube. Ordered a 4 pack. Carpenter Ants love this stuff. They swarm all over it. You don't need a lot and within a day or two they are gone! Now if I could just get rid of our Carpenter BEES!!

Was like carpenter ant candy

Verified Purchase
We had large black carpenter ants throughout the house and even on our 30 ft high balcony porch and I don't mean one or two. I placed the little drops of the bait as directed throughout the house and porch are you also used advance carpenter ant bait and it was amazing within days they dwindled and then none. Couple months later I did call and arranged and exterminator for quarterly visits and I showed him the bait I used and he said it was the same that he used and said I did a really great job.

Yummy!
By Paula on 07/15/2023
The carpenter ants love this stuff. I put it in key spots but also in the evening look around to see if I see ants heading to and from the house. Then I put small blobs right in their route-- it is great to see them gather around and eat the stuff up, then go on their way to bring it to the colony. This is the surest way I know of to truly kill a colony-- when I do this within 7-10 days there will be NO ANT ACTION whatsoever.
Carpenter ant infestation
By Ricky on 08/24/2023
I had a carpenter ant infestation in my house. Thousands of these ants were marching down my fence in both directions and entering my house through a void somewhere. I decided to purchase this product and when I got it I immediately started using it. I applied this product to five or six q-tips so that I could hold the q-tip while I applied the product to the other end of the q-tip. I set the q-tips out in the path of where I was seeing the carpenter ants travel. I also put bait outside of my house at night where I thought that they were entering. I only used small dabs along my fence in both directions at night when they were foraging for food so that the worker ants could get it and take it back to the nest in order to kill the queen and the colony. I had my doubts that this product would work but lo and behold it wiped the colony completely out. I mean I was seeing thousands and thousands of ants bee lining to my house befor I had this product. The key is to be patient and let this product do its work over the course of 3 to 7 days. Thank you Max Force for totally eradicating my carpenter ant problem. This product is amazing for anyone who has a carpenter ant infestation and can be patient allowing the bait to do its work. You will know that debate is working when the ants inside of your house start to slow down and look lethargic. Then you will notice that they start to die and as they are dying they start to move in very small half inch circles because the poison is affecting them.
A Very Fast and Effective Bait for Pesky Ants
By Dwight on 07/28/2023
Living in Florida I see plenty of ants and typically as long as they outside of my house I have tended to let them be. However, when they begin to enter the house, we go to war. Recently I had begun to see many more on the outside near my patio and after two rainy days I found about a dozen Carpenter ant bodies one morning near a night light and knew it was time to get serious with this problem. I ordered a couple products from Do My Own and the first one I used was the Maxforce Fleet Ant Bait Gel. This product within a few minutes of applying outside of the house was like a magnet for several different types of ants. Within a couple of days, I noticed considerably less ants outside and withing four days there was no longer any showing up inside and my patios and walkways no longer have trails of ants moving about. I have treated many areas with this gel and I'm happy to say ant free and life is good again!
Amazing
By Joan on 07/27/2023
I have wooden large statues of grizzley bears, black bears , wolf etc in my yard. I initially put down a granular product and the ants disappeared. Two weeks later they were back. There is a lot of sawdust from them gutting them from the insides out. We are talking 5-6 ft statues that are anywhere up to 18 inches thick. GUTTED. The Maxforce Fleet arrived and I put some on the stump one was on. I walked around the Grizzley putting little dabs of gue where the rain wouldn't wash it away. I put a little in the crack going down his back. By the time I made a full circle the ants were busy eatting it. The ants came from inside the crack and from the outside and loved it. There were several Piles of black and red ants on the ground at all animals. I then used the Maxforce granular around the base. When I say my animals are gutted from the inside I mean the whole interior. My thought is that these ants gobbled up the Maxforce Fleet but did they die before they fed the larve or the Queen? Who knows.
Great product,
