TERRO Outdoor Liquid Ant Baits
Best solution for homeowners needing to eliminate entire ant colonies.
Eliminate common household ants with TERRO Liquid Ant Baits. These ready-to-use stations attract foraging ants with a sweet liquid, luring them to consume a slow-acting bait containing Borax. The worker ants carry this bait back to the colony, effectively eliminating both visible ants and hidden nest members. Designed for continuous use, the closed bait stations prevent the liquid from drying out, ensuring a constant supply. Easy-open tabs make placement simple. For best results, place near ant trails or entry points, and allow up to two weeks for complete colony control.

Customers find TERRO Outdoor Liquid Ant Baits exceptionally effective for complete colony elimination, providing a reliable, long-term solution.

Know before you buy
The liquid bait uses a slow-acting Borax formula. Foraging ants are attracted to the sweet liquid, consume it, and carry it back to the nest to share with the queen and other colony members, which eventually eliminates the entire population.
Yes, these stations are designed for both indoor and outdoor use. For the best results, place them near known ant trails or entry points where you have observed activity.
You may see an increase in ant activity around the bait stations initially as they are drawn to the liquid. It typically takes up to two weeks to achieve complete colony control.
No, these stations are not child or pet-proof. While the bait is contained within a sealed station, you should always place them in areas that are inaccessible to children and pets to prevent accidental contact or ingestion.
No, these are single-use, ready-to-use stations. Once the bait is consumed or the station is empty, you should discard it and replace it with a fresh one if ant activity persists.
If ants aren't visiting the station, try moving it slightly closer to an active trail. It is also important to remove other competing food sources in the area so the ants are more likely to be attracted to the bait.
