Ant Control
Ant control is essential for the biological control of honeydewsecreting pests, like aphid, whitefly, mealybug, psyllid, and soft scale. Ants attack and often drive beneficial insects away from these pests in order to protect them as a source of nutritious honeydew syrup. Use bait stations or dispensers to deliver low-toxicity borate ant bait to the colony, where the bait will gradually build up to kill the queen. Disrupt ant mounds and runs with a shovel and exclude ants by placing sticky barriers around tree trunks and bench legs to starve ant colonies by blocking access to insect honeydew.
ANT TIP: BORIC ACID SYRUP 1 cup sugar 2 level tsp boric acid 2 cups water (1% boric acid in 25% sugar syrup by wt) Stir to dissolve and pour into bait dispensers, like AntPro™ or Ants-No-More.
Durable high volume polypropylene bait dispenser holds 20 ounces of liquid bait. AntPro is designed to protect bait from the weather, extending its lifespan. It provides reliable long-term ant control for farms and gardens while excluding non-target insects like bees.
