The media could not be loaded. UPDATE EDIT April 9,2025:I have been using this on and off since my initial purchase. Except for the first usage, where the ants [seemingly] showed utter disdain for the liquid ant bait flavor, it has proven to be very effective at its intended purpose. They now seem to love it. I upgraded my review to 5 star.Maybe it is an acquired taste.END OF APRIL 9, 2025 UPDATE EDITUPDATE EDIT:Sep. 11, 2024 UPDATE: Today I found ants feeding on the Liquid Ant Bait. It has been 20 days since I placed the ant bait on my window sill, with the ants showing ZERO interest - until today! (I did not add any new liquid ant bait; I left the bait stations alone for 20 days with the original ant bait that I placed in them.) Now the ants were swarming around it like it was a feeding trough. (NOTE: I did add additional fresh ant bait AFTER the ants started arriving.)The video that I shared shows the ants shortly after I noticed them. The quantity of ants increased significantly after I shot the video, but I did not record any additional video. The ants fed on it for approximately 12 hours - a constant stream of ants coming and going for a large portion of that time. The ants eventually stopped and departed - every single one - even though there was still plenty of ant bait in the bait stations. There were no dead ants around the bait stations, which I found interesting. I also found it interesting that the ants just completely stopped coming.One other noteworthy item: I placed an additional amount of ant bait on the kitchen counter (near the stream of ants) without using a bait station (thus the ant bait was in contact with the counter and the painted kitchen wall). Some of the ants veered off of the main path to feed on this additional glob of ant bait. However, after all of the ants had departed, there were approximately 20 dead ants near this new glob that I had added. So it appears that the ant bait is effective.I updated my rating from a 1 to a 3. I just wish the ant bait had a more appealing flavor so the ants would be quickly drawn to it and gorge themselves. I believe that would make the product more effective.One more note: The product manufacturer contacted me, stating that they would like to address any issues or concerns - that customer satisfaction was important to them. I did not respond, but I did appreciate them reaching out to me. Thank you.END OF UPDATE EDITI had a great opportunity to try this product today. I have had ants [intermittently] for a while now, so I ordered this Liquid Ant Bait. It arrived yesterday. This morning when I went to my kitchen, there were thousands of ants feasting on some banana bread and muffins that were in unsealed packaging from the manufacturer. After removing the banana bread and muffins, I put a little of this Liquid Ant Bait in two of the Bait Stations, positioned them very close to where the stream of ants was coming in (the wall outlet), and even brushed a number of ants into one of the Bait Stations (to help give them a taste). I left the 2 Bait Stations out for quite some time while there were still many ants roaming around, searching for lost pastries. The ants just basically ignored the Liquid Ant Bait. Even the ants that I forced into the Bait Station departed - along with every other ant in the kitchen - without so much as a second glance. Apparently, the ants did not find the Liquid Ant Bait to be nearly as delicious as the banana bread. I did, however, see one dead ant in the liquid ant bait. I think it most likely drowned when I pushed it and its friends into the Bait Station.I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AT ALL. I think it only killed one ant - probably by drowning.

I usually don't write reviews, but this stuff worked like a champ. I filled the trays (yeah, it was more than a drop or two - I filled them to the top!) and set them around the kitchen. A few hours later the ants were all over them, and two days later, they are gone! I haven't seen a single ant in my kitchen for two days! And after the nightmare that was coming in through the window sill (yes, I need to seal it up from the outside) after four days of solid rain, now there is nothing. They are gone! I'm going to leave the trays out (filled, of course) for the rest of the week as a precaution. But...so far, no ants! I'm a beleiver....

Effective after only a few days

I had an infestation in my kitchen of microscopic (well, not exactly, but they were pretty tiny). I put a trap in my sink where they were most active and they swarmed it. Three days later, I have not seen one ant. A month later, ants still gone.

The first day I set the bait I was excited it would work because all the ants swarmed to it and was eating it up. The next day there was a little fewer ants around.I'm thinking it's working.A week passes and the ants are still coming but now they ignore the bait. More and more ants coming in, ignoring the bait.Has been a complete waste of time and money!

I thought I would "save the earth" and save a bit of cash and get the refillable trays and the bottle of ant bait. This made quite a mess as I tried to get the very sticky bait into the clear tray. The design of the refillable trays allows for the top of the trap to be matched up with the bottom of the track. The ants disappeared, the trays got washed and put back into the box with the bottle for our next ant visitors. The sticky goo on my hands washed off after 2 washes! Nah, next time, I would sooooo buy the other products!

I cannot believe how fast they took to Catchmaster DefiANT Liquid Ant Bait.I have used borax based ant killer before and they never seemed to go for it.Not the case here, they smelled it immediately and started lapping it up.In combination with Amdro Ant Killer for Outdoor Home Perimeter next to the Catchmaster DefiANT bait traps, they were gone from my kitchen in 3 days.You may think, 3 DAYS! But I had a colony under my cement slab house so I wanted to make sure they brought treats down to all their buddies, babies and queen so I did not want to just kill them on contact.What worked for me was to first isolate the entrance, then I put up a cardboard perimeter so my cat could not get near the poison. Then I sprayed regular "kill on contact" around the outside of the cardboard perimeter to keep them in one spot. I laid down 1 Catchmaster DefiANT Liquid Ant Bait station and a pile of Amdro Ant Killer about the size of a few grapes. I saw a large stream of ants going after the Catchmaster station for 3 days with thier numbers dwindling down to just a couple and I watched the whole pile of Amdro granules disappear in about 2 days.Odd that some liked the liquid bait, others liked the granules so these 2 products together resolved my issue.Will report back if I see anymore from that spot, but I doubt it!They are toast!

Within five minutes, they gathered on the tray. I couldn’t believe how many came out of the wall so I sprayed them with Windex and killed them instantly. Then wash the tray and reset it with the Catchmaster chemicals. Five minutes later repeated it again. Only saw two ants after that 24 hours later, no ants!!! Sooo amazed with the product! I purchased a second bottle & dribble it all around my house on a bunch of ant hills to keep them from coming back in😎
