Q:can this be used with a broadcast spreader
by|Jul 22, 2022
2 Answers
Answer This Question

A:  It is of the consistency and granular size that would work in a broadcast spreader. I used it to put a 4-5ft 'barrier' around my house and to spot treat a couple of mounds in the yard and the dispenser built into the bottom of the bag worked perfectly. BTW, there was no sign of any ants 24 hours later or since. This stuff works.

            A:  Ants are not like the others and has specific products. Good news Go to your local Home Depot and get a bag of granular for an assortment of bugs and spread that around. Best brand I found there is Spectracide. Work well

            It worked somewhat. it didn't totally get rid of them but it did help keep the ants out of the house and it did reduce their numbers. I'd give it 3 1/2 stars out of 5. The product seems to give you the impression that it will kill all of them and it didn't.

            The top has a zipper closure and inside the bag there is a plastic sheet with holes so you can sprinkle out the poison. The handy handle on the bottom of the bag makes it easy to shake the bag.

            Used the Ant Shield to get rid of ants outside my garage door. This was a big ant pile or maybe even several different ant piles. I put it down late afternoon and watered it in, by the next afternoon I could hardly find any ants there. It worked great.
