About this deal
While the product is effective in controlling ants, it may pose a risk to children and pets if they come into contact with the liquid. However, as with all chemicals, it’s still best to keep curious hands and paws at a safe distance – just in case.
Nippon Ant Killer Powder can also be used to control other crawling insects including cockroaches, beetles, earwigs, silverfish and woodlice. I’ve previously used nematodes on slugs, ants and lawn grubs in my own garden and also for clients and the results have been excellent. Peppermint or eucalyptus oil also works at deterring ants and I have tested this in my home – I placed a few drops onto tissue or cotton and placed them into the cupboard or void where the ants are and they soon disappeared. As per the other reviewer, followed the instructions could see the ants immediately coming up to it,.
In one instance I placed the station far from the nest and the ants died before they had the chance to carry the poison back to the nest which survived. I suggest placing these out in the open or to protect pets, place them under crates, bowls or boxes, in voids, under the stairs or cupboards etc.
Despite the safety concerns, Ant Waterer Ant Killer's residual effects and ease of use make it an attractive option for those dealing with ant infestations.I’ve heard that chilli pepper, cayenne pepper, black pepper, garlic cloves, mint and cinnamon are all effective at deterring ants from crevices, cupboards and other similar places.
