    • ants disappeared in a matter of minutes
This product is magical! I watered a plant and saw a bunch of ants coming out, I didn't want to spread the product on the soil because I was not sure if it could kill my plant so I put a bit of it on the edges of a plate under the plantpot. In a matter of minutes... no ant! it acts super fast. Cons: it smells like rotten eggs and the smell is strong. I only spread a little bit and I had to take it out of the house. After an hour or so I cleaned the product from the plate and brought the plant inside, no more ants. Next time, I'll take the plant outside before spreading the product but I'll continue using it for sure! ... show more

    • Kills Ants Dead in 15 Minutes - Yes it Does!!!!
Unless you directly blow the powder in your face you don't smell it. I drilled small holes in the lid of the container to shake the powder out on the ant mounds. When I checked the mounds later, all of the ants were dead - on top of the mound and in it. I also got the broadcast granules and went over the yard for good measure. The Scott Mini-Spreader did a fantastic job!!! It was either use Ortho Ant Killer or set the yard on fire and my wife and fire Department wouldn't let me do the latter! ... show more

    • Do not encROACH my space!
Wonderful solution to roaches in the bathroom. I suspect they're coming from the sink pipe and barring the use of foam, I still need to get rid of these creatures. I was able to nab one roach per three straight days. I have no doubt they'll wipe out the colony. I use the bottle caps of a finished iced tea bottle, sprinkle a third of a spoon, tape the bottom so it won't spill and let the magic happen! Each day brought in a body larger than the previous. If this was a large scale infestation, I'd soon as sprinkle the whole thing everywhere but these little battles will win the war. Highly recommend! ... show more

    • It works but
It does work I live in a duplex which is similar to an apartment and we have problem with roaches from previous person that lived here. It does work however it does take a while and the smell is pretty bad but it definitely helped with my problem. You’ll also wake up to two or one bodies or they’ll come out during the day scattering around they are dying but it may startle people. ... show more
