The ants appear to be living in my walls as in the kitchen they are using the electrical outlet and an exit and entrance. I placed this poison (Terro Ant Killing II) liquid about 1 week ago and I haven’t seen anymore ants after about 2 days or so.
I decided to put another shot of it and within 2 hours hundreds of ants were swarming this food (poison)
Should I of left well enough alone?
My thinking is that I need to keep placing this bait / food / poison out there to get them all.
This “Terro Ant Killing II” is meant not to kill the ants immediately, but rather enable them to bring the poison back to their colonies and feed the rest of their colony, including the queen bee and let them all die.
The key is to NOT kill the ants when you see them, otherwise you are defeating the purpose which is to let them eat, and then transport the food / poison back to their colony.
How come after the first application I saw NO more ants but now after another application, a ton more came back?
