Q:I spot treated areas near the perimeter of the house. After lightly watering in the granules, the granules dry out quickly in the summer heat. Do I need to water it daily to get the most use out of the granules?

Ants treat this like pebbles
Didn't work for me. I have a crazy line of ants going from one end to another in my driveway and I placed two of these in each side and absolutely nada.

Decimates ants but not eliminates
I’ve been using it about 2 weeks now and I’ve noticed thousands of dead ants sprawled around their usual paths. They’ve even started using the dead bodies as parts of their ants mounds (not kidding). But there are still plenty of them roaming around. Then again the colony of ants in fighting is enormous (they’ve sprawled across about an 8th of an acre) so I expect it will take a while. A squirrel took one of the baits day one but the other 2 seem to be doing work still. Great at reducing their numbers overtime. Not sure if it will completely kill the colony though

These ant bait stations appear to be the ones you would place in your house but designed for outdoor use. I tried them because I usually use granules that some animal tends to eat and can expose my children to a pesticide. These stations each have a short stake and are easy to place in secluded areas away from my kids or pets. I have not seen too much activity around them when I check but my ant population is down so they must be working. My big problem ant is usually the little black ones. They have lasted through several rains.

Set it and Forget it
Used these last year and they worked because I didn’t even think about ants in our fruit and vegetable garden again until now. I only popped on website to check stock at my local store to pick up this year’s application. We have a very short season so one set of stakes did the trick!

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.
