Advion Fire Ant Bait contains bait material with the active ingredient indoxacarb that acts through ingestion by ants. The activity of this insecticide allows adequate consumption of the bait by ants prior to onset of mortality. This provides enough time for foraging ants to return to nest sites and contaminate other colony members including larvae and queens. This action results in complete control of ant colonies.
Advion Fire Ant Bait is registered for the control of Fire Ants around buildings, gardens, grazing areas, lawns and public areas as per the Directions for Use.
Advion Fire Ant Bait is a corn grit and oil bait matrix that is highly palatable and provides unbeatable control of fire ants, resulting in proven customer satisfaction. Research has shown Advion Fire Ant Bait can provide total colony control in as little as 72 hours and can be used any time of the year keeping areas free from this aggressive, painful and invasive pest.
Key features and benefits of Advion Fire Ant Bait:
- Highly palatable
- Total colony control in as little as 72 hours
- Kills not just the worker, but also the queen and the larvae stages of the colony
- Can be used in multiple situations including agricultural situations, commercial/domestic/industrial and public service areas, forests, grazing and non-crop areas as well as in lawn and turf situations including residential lawns and ornamental garden beds
- Convenient and easy to use
How does Advion Fire Ant Bait work?
ADVION® Fire Ant Bait contains indoxacarb, a non-repellent active ingredient, in a highly palatable
corn grit and oil bait matrix. The correct placement of ADVION® Fire Ant Bait will maximise its transfer to the nest, thereby killing the queen, larvae, and ants in the nest. Worker ants that feed on ADVION® Fire Ant Bait return to the nest and transfer the non-repellent active ingredient (Indoxacarb) to the brood and queen. Total colony control can be achieved within 3-14 days with worker activity significantly reduced within 48 hours.
- ADVION® Fire Ant Bait kills not just the worker, but also the queen and larvae stages of the colony, aiming for eradication of this invasive pest
- The bait is highly attractive to Red Imported and Tropical Fire Ant species ensuring rapid uptake of the product
- Colony control can occur within 3-14 days depending on nest numbers and population densities
- Can be used in agricultural situations, commercial/domestic/industrial and public service areas, forests, grazing and non-crop areas as well as in lawn and turf situations including residential lawns and ornamental garden beds
How to use Advion Fire Ant Bait
- Highly palatable corn grit and oil bait matrix, in a convenient 1 kg shaker pack
- Application of 15 g per nest is made 1 m around the mound where ants enter and forage
- Follow up treatments are usually limited to spot treatments of high-density nest clusters whereas other baits (IGRs) need 3-4 additional complete treatments
- With one application, ADVION® Fire Ant Bait provides control of foraging ants within 12 to 48 hours and total colony control within 72 hours. After only two applications, year-long colony control can be achieved in most locations.
Tips for using Advion Fire Ant Bait
- Applications can be made at any time of day but are most effective in the morning, when ants start to actively forage (soil temperature >15.5°C and air temperature between 24°C and 32°C)
- Mound treatment: Do not disturb the mound and bait should be applied around the mounds and not on top
- Apply 15 g/mound (approx. 4 level tablespoons) uniformly 1 m around the nest mound
- No more than 4 applications should be applied per year
For optimal effectiveness, use fresh bait and do not apply if the surface is wet with dew or irrigation is planned or rainfall is forecast post application - If follow-up applications are required, make these at 12-16 weeks intervals
Fire Ants often nest in open spaces close to other structures and in colder months these nests are more visible as they are prone from the surrounding ground level to access more sunlight for warmth. In warmer months (October to April), these mounds are less visible which makes efficient treatment difficult and eradication with liquids even harder.
