Terro Ant Killer Giveaway
This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to commentors #86: helenlam & #115: Lily Kwan!
We have a major ant problem and even though they gross me out it wouldn’t bother me as much if they didn’t bite Kiana every chance they got. My poor child ends up with welt looking bumps on her body that look and feel very itchy. Once it got so bad that her teacher asked if she had the Chicken Pox.
I’ve tried everything but they keep coming back. I even make sure that the kids only eat at the dinner table and sweep and mop after amost every meal. Keeping these ants at bay can be so exhausting!
So when I had the opporutnity to review Terro Ant Killer, I thought I’d give it a try. I’ve heard from other bloggers who had great results so I was very eager to try it out.
We received the Liquid Ant Baits and Outdoor Ant Killer Shaker Bag. The first thing I did was place the Liquid Ant Baits inside my home. It was very easy to use. I just had to clip off a small section of the baits and place them where I thought the ants were coming from. I liked that these liquid traps were pre-filled to prevent me from having to handle poisonous materials. I just had to make sure I put them out of reach and out of sight of the kids. You know how curious they can get! That’s why I liked that the design was pretty flat which allowed me to place some of the baits under the stove and refrigerator.
The Outdoor Ant Killer Shaker Bag was just as easy to use. Just open up the the zip-loc type bag, turn upside down, and start shaking the contents around the perimeter of your home. When I saw the inside of the bag I was concerned that once I turned it upside down the entire contents would empty out. However, it was pretty cool the pellets fell out only when you shook the bag. And even then it wasn’t a tremendous amount. This helped to control the amount of pellets you wanted to distribute. Once that was done, all I need to do was lightly water the treated area. Luckily, it was about to drizzle so I just let Mother Nature help me out.
I have to say that I didn’t realize how strong these pellets were. About a hour later, I was outside and I noticed a dead Gecko lying in the pellets. It was kind of sad but at least I know it works. Even the baits inside the house was attracting ants within the hour. I could see those tiny little buggers crawling all over the traps and unknowingly taking the bait back to the rest of their colony.
After a few days, I noticed a significantly decreased amount of ants around the house. And after about 2 weeks they were gone completely. The only thing I would recommend is to be careful where you place them. I had a bait right inside the back door and one of my cats must have stepped on it. I found the liquid all over the floor. However, since the other baits were placed where the cats couldn’t reach them, they stayed intact.
So far the Terro Ant Killer has been working like a charm and I’m so relived that Kiana’s not getting bit anymore. Thank you Terro!

I found the fruit fly trap really interesting, we occasionally get them and I’ve never seen a trap for them.

The Caprpenter Ant and Termiote Killer Spray held my interest. The ant are living in the eaves of the garage. So before the roof falls in , I think we could use this product. Also in Spring and summer we do have ant problems at times.
I like the Terro liquid ant killer. I have used it in the past and it works real well.

I like their Liquid Ant Killer. It was the only thing that worked last summer to control the ant problem we had.

I love that the fruit fly trap is non-toxic, We have cats that like to sneak on to counters and i get worried that they might ingest chempicals in most traps!

Any ant product that will kill fireants will win my heart! I am deathly allergic to fire ants and will continue to buy products that will keep me out of the emergency room!
The multi-purpose insect bait would work wonders.
The Spider Killer looks interesting to me! We have way to many spiders around here. Ick!
I found the Multi-Purpose Insect Bait interesting – I could sure use it to help get rid of the snails in my flower beds.
