Ants -BUDDING
EFFECT
caused by fast killing.
.....But the story gets worse. Fast ant kills causes what is known as
"the budding effect" which increases the number of ant colonies.
Why? Because with many ant species there is always a number of inactive queens. But
when they move all these queens become active and will start their own new ant
nests.
Ants -NOW YOU KNOW WHY
When you try to kill ants quickly new ant nests appear a few feet away
practically overnight. When the workers start to die quickly an alarm is
raised. The queens leave the nest within a few seconds of the alarm going off
and soon they are all breeding again close by.

WHY USE BAIT?
Baiting for ants gets the ants to
work for you. Just put the right bait in the correct place and the ants take
it home and kill their queens and their buddies too. Baits are designed to
work a little slower than other forms of treatment but they are more effective because the
Queen does not get alarmed by the slower reduction in her worker ants. |

WHAT'S MY OTHER CHOICE?
A complete broadcast coverage of granules such as diazinon will be effective for a short
while but it merely sends the ants next door and they'll return in even greater numbers
when its safe again. Baiting is more effective. The colonies die and job stays done.

COMMON ANTS
The most common of these pests, which bother homeowners are, fire ants, Carpenter
ants and sugar ants. We have selected baits which will be most effective against these
Colonies. However, these products used together will deal with just about any known
species of ant.
