Combat Indoor and Outdoor Ant Killing Gel, 27 Gram

Tinkering in my garden the other day tidying a huge bed that accommodates my 12 foot tall beautiful banana trees and was horrified to discover an absolutely colossal black ants nest! This thing was like 4 meters long and a meter and a half wide. They were also branching out and creating little pilot nests on some of my treasured Bonsai plant pots!! I couldn't see all the entrances so I topped up the entire area with compost 8 inches deep to force them to tunnel out and reveal themselves. Within 30 minutes I literally saw thousands upon thousands of ants pouring out of various sections in the bed, maybe 9 locations in total. And that showed me where to put the gel. And even a splurge right up on the trunk of one banana tree close to where a new bunch of bananas was beginning to flower that the ants were all over. They absolutely devoured the stuff covering it so densely all you could see was a black writhing masses. Within about an hour they had consumed TWO entire tubes of this gel and I assume carried a ton of it home deep into the nest to feed their chief Empress egg layer. I started the whole process around 7:00 p.m. in the evening, and by the time I went out 6:00 a.m the next morning there was not a single ant in sight. Two tubes had wiped out this entire huge colony in one evening. The stuff is pretty expensive but if you're serious about getting rid of ants in your garden this will obliterate them.

I bought this last year and I don’t usually do reviews. I am now as I’ve just tried another gel which had good reviews but didn’t work well so I searched for this one again and glad to have found it so I am doing my review from last year. I put the gel down and ants ate it and then after a couple days no more ants. Simple and effective. The other one I just used didn’t kill ants at the nest and instead ants died slowly out on their duties so I have had to clean up hundreds of tiny dead ants in all manner of places. The other gel also only worked the first day and then ants started avoiding it. I just assumed all were the same but no. This one is tried and tested so I’ve just ordered it again. We get ants every year around this time. Apparently there’s a nest outside our utility room in the garden (so the guy I paid £100 to sort them said a couple years ago). Now we do it ourselves for around £15 and we’ll now choose this gel every year without fail as it is tried and tested and it works. Sorry to the seller for not reviewing earlier!

The Combat Ant Killing Gel is the "Trojan Horse" of pest control. Instead of the instant satisfaction of a spray that only kills the ants you can see, this gel uses a slow-acting poison called Fipronil. The foragers find the sweet, high-moisture gel, mistake it for a feast, and carry it back to the heart of the colony to feed the larvae and the queen. It’s a patient man’s game; you’ll see ants swarming the bait for a few days, but that's exactly what you want—it’s the "last supper" that wipes out the entire nest from the inside. The syringe applicator is a masterstroke for precision, letting you inject the gel directly into those tiny cracks in the skirting boards or behind the kitchen sink where ants actually live. Because it’s a gel rather than a spray, you aren’t coating your kitchen in a fine mist of chemicals.

Easy to apply, highly effective, and very affordable. Ants were drawn to the gel quickly, and within a few days the problem was resolved. Found it highly effective against pharaoh ants.

We have suffered from ants invading the kitchen and living room, plus other downstairs rooms for years, from multiple nests. We’ve tried traps, with limited success and sprays which kill many quickly and helps create a barrier for a while, but they only have limited success. I expected similar from this, but I became aware of this after reading a test from multiple solutions and this was at the very top. I applied this near 2 nests and the ants couldn’t get enough of the gel. They spent hours consuming the lot, even the next morning there were perhaps a hundred or so just consuming this gel, even while a lot of ants were dead nearby. The next afternoon after application, there were 1 or 2 ants about, but since then we have seen none. 3 or so days without seeing even 1 ant later and I feel confident enough to claim it to be a revelation and I feel confident that this is all we’ll ever need should there be a recurrence of ants again as long as it’s available to buy.

Total disappointment. The ants wouldn’t eat this at all. The syringe is badly designed press it and the whole load shoots out at once, wasting the product. What does stick to the wall dries out in under an hour, so there’s no bait left for the ants to find later. Didn’t control anything. Money wasted

This product is probably one of the best as far as attracting ants. It's a gel that stays in place. You will see Hundreds of ants for a few days so I suggest putting it where you don't care if ants are crawling consistently for a day or two. Then you won't see them. My personal favorite when it comes to eliminating ants in the house.

Works very well, and lower price per quantity than others

I buy most of my products buy the product description and the review's. The product descriptions does not discriminate between what ants it will kill and what ant it won't. The review's mention Pharaoh ants several times that's is why I purchased it. On opening the packaging in small print it says excludes Pharaoh ants. Totally useless to me now and I bought two packets.

Oh my gosh! It’s the early beginnings of spring in the Midwest, where winter battles with spring weather, yet the life clock of ants knows it's time to wake up. Every year, I deal with the same problem, ANTS. I have hired people; I have treated the suspect areas where I see them enter my home all summer long, in hopes of finally stopping the colonies. Yet, every spring they’re BACK! I repeat the same rituals of buying everything on the shelf, hoping this will be the year that I eradicate the ants at my patio door. I started seeing a couple of stray ants this week, so I ordered "Combat Indoor and Outdoor Ant Killing Gel, 27 Gram" from Amazon along with a handful of other products. I placed a regular ant trap where I know they will start coming in, not expecting to see them for another couple of weeks. On top of the regular ant trap, I squeezed a dollop of Combat on top of the trap. Within half an hour, the top of the trap was covered with small ants. The Combat, I have to say, works amazingly well. There is no odor. The stuff is like a soft glue, but the ants do not stick to it, so they can feed, return to the colony, and share the product with the queen(s). It is almost clear, and by putting it in the trap, it drew ants to the bait as well, but more importantly, I can pick it up in a few days and discard it without a mess to clean up. I will buy this product again for sure!

This product was a miracle treatment for a crazy explosion of carpenter ants. The ants literally waited in line for their turn to eat. 2weeks later, no live ants and lots of dead ones. Reasonably priced Highly recomend
