It does what it says, period.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ortho Fire Ant Killer Mound Treatment does exactly what it says. I was very carefully to follow the directions. I made sure I didn't apply a single grain on the mound. The ants vacated within the allotted time. In 5 mounds I found only one ant. I liked the way the directions explained in detail how much & where to apply the product.

I just used the product a couple of days ago and also the weather is getting cooler, it means ants are not as active. The true test comes when it is getting hot again but I am sure it will be effective. Fast service and a great price, love it.

Worked quickly and efficiently but some of the ants relocated or created new mounds near the old ones. I guess it's a process.

Temporary fix
Treatment works great and fast but as everyone who deals with fire ants on a normal bases which i have learned is that this type of treament is temporary and needs to be constantly applied when ant mounds are visble. Its easy to apply but can get a bit expensive if ants constantly come back like they did in my yard. Fast acting with fast results. I do recommend.

Bought two on accident. Good thing I did. The first treatment killed em instantly and I followed the instructions thoroughly. 3 days later I had ants again. So I treated them again with the extra bag, killed instantly within 15 min. 4 days later ants are back. So this is a no go. Will not buy again
