User questions & answers

Question:	Can/should I put these behind the kick plate under my cabinets
Answer:	Hello, Thank you for your question. Our tablets will absolutely work on oriental roaches. Spiders, however, are a different story. I would recommend our 24oz Spider Killer liquid spray specifically for spiders or our Spider Glue Traps. Unfortunately, they are not attracted to the tablets. Best, John
Question:	If I have a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom kind of large home... will this be enough? or should I buy 2 packs
Answer:	This listing says 4oz with 145 tablets,yet the description says ."at least 95 tablets",Sold by + shipped by AMAZON. There is another seller(not amazon but shipped by amazon) for a few cents more with a 6oz box with 145 tablets. Can anyone explain this enigma?
Question:	What do we mean by "small" roaches? As is 1 in, 1/2 in or even smaller than that? The few I am seeing are no more than 1 inch in length. Will it work
Answer:	Yes you can, they are like tablets and they don't fall apart. Roaches eat them go back to where ever and die
Question:	Does anyone know if it can be used pet-safe? (I have a quite food-driven cat
Answer:	I use them on my screened in porch in a tropical area and they do work but, I change them more frequently then those on the inside. THESE TABLETS WORK VERY WELL!!

Product description

To kill common household ants, simply place TERRO Liquid Ant Baits stations near indoor areas where ants are spotted. Ants enter the trap, consume the liquid ant bait and return to the nest where they pass on the bait to the rest of the colony. TERRO Liquid Ant Baits are specifically formulated to allow worker ants to consume the product and survive long enough to carry the liquid back to the nest and deliver a dose to the rest of the colony . The liquid ant bait stations prevent the bait from drying out and provide the ants with a continuous supply of liquid, day and night. Monitor the baits regularly for activity, but do not interfere with the ants or baits. Replace with additional baits when the first set is depleted. Depending on the size of the ant infestation, complete control may take up to two weeks.

• 12 bait stations included
• Kills all common household ants
• Pre-filled, ready-to-use bait stations
• Patented design prevents bait from drying out
• Attracts ants fast
• Contains Borax
• Place baits near ant trails or where ants are numerous
• Use all six baits to ensure sufficient supply for the ants

User questions & answers

Question:	Why is the pricing so weird? It's actually 2x more in bulk! Did someone make a mistake? Sorry for the rhetorical question, silly vendor person
Answer:	It has to do with who the actual "seller" is. If you select a quantity of "1", in this case, it is "sold and fulfilled" by Amazon. If you select a quantity of "2" it is "sold" by another company while still being "fulfilled" by Amazon. Yes, both quantities are, as of this writing, "fulfilled" by Amazon but that just tells you that Amazon stores, packages, and ships both items(1 and 2 packs) even though there are, in reality, two different "sellers". If you click back and forth on the quantity selector you'll see the "sold by" name change. Look just under the price after you switch. The seller of the 2 pack sets the price whereas the seller of the 1 pack(Amazon) sets its own price. I'm sure Amazon buys the 1 pack in very large quantities and, therefore, can get a bigger discount, per piece, than the other "seller" can get, per piece, for the 2-pack.
Question:	How safe is this product in the kitchen? We have a few ants crawling around our kitchen sink and would like to place one of these bait stations on our kitchen counter. Bad idea? Thanks
Answer:	This is a generally safe product according to my research. Make sure to read the packaging and follow direction. (FOR INDOOR USE READ THE FOLLOWING) One lesson I learned the hard way: the sugary syrup is irresistible to ants, even though it is laced with poison. This means when you use Tarro, you're actually providing access to free food! The poison will work on the ants and it takes about 18-24 hours to kill them... but as you wait after 24 hours, Tarro syrup will attract other thriving colonies into your home. They'll follow the same rich trails laid behind by the previous colony and even scavenge on the carcases of the previously fallen colony. This cycle will continue, attracting ants from far away reaches and allowing them to setup massive colonies within your home. This is especially true with Argentine ants (available throughout the world), which form massive colonies with multiple queens - a trait unique to this type of ant, whereas others will battle for territory. So the lesson learned is simple... once the initial 1 or 2 swarms die down, remove all baits and all forms of food from open spaces in your home; patch up all openings in walls, baseboards, cracks around windows, etc; apply perimeter pesticide around your home; and look for signs of wandering ants in the next week. If you see more ants then you missed an opening and already have an established colony in your wall.... repeat!! Just don't leave out Tarro and keep replenishing, especially in the case of Argentine ants.
Question:	Is this safe to have around pets? I have a curious cat
Answer:	I'd say no. My cat knocked one of these over once and licked the syrup. She was fine but it wasn't a fun afternoon (trip to the vet, etc.). Terro sells a version of this that encloses the bait in plastic and has sticky squares to attach them to the floor, counter, or other surfaces. I use those instead now.
Question:	I have a baby in the house and I would like to use this product to kill ants in my house. Any precautions you suggest before I use this product
Answer:	The ant trails at my house sometimes go from the floor to the ceiling. I turn the bait so that the liquid will not run out and use Scotch tape to tape it to the wall next to the ant trail. I tape the bait high enough that babies and grand children cannot get to it. It usually takes two days for the ants to disappear. Then three days after they disappear, they return to the trap. Another two days and they disappear again. The second time they disappear is usually the last time I see them at that location.

TERRO Liquid Ant Baits

Ants can be a problem anywhere – in the home, at work and everywhere in between. To kill common household ants, place TERRO Liquid Ant Baits in areas where they attract foraging ants that take the bait back to the nest. As the bait circulates through the colony, it kills the ants you see and the ones you don’t. The new and improved snap-off tab makes the stations easy to use. To open the bait, hold the station vertically and twist the tab. This opens up the station and allows ants to access the bait. Place the entire station on a flat surface, keeping the ant bait inside the station. Plus, the closed bait stations prevent the bait from drying out to provide the ants with a continuous supply of liquid, day and night. Note: complete control may take up to two weeks.

How Liquid Ant Bait Works

Since this is a bait, initially you will see more ants – but don’t worry, this is a good thing. Why? As ants forage for food, they are easily attracted to the sweet, sugary liquid inside the bait stations. After finding the bait, worker ants consume it and leave behind a pheromone trail leading back to the colony. This trail lets other worker ants know where the newly discovered food supply is. This is why you will see more ants in the beginning.

Meanwhile, the active ingredient, Borax, is slowly interfering with the ant’s digestive system, ultimately killing it, but leaving enough time for the ant to go back and share the dose with the rest of the colony. This slow kill is necessary so that foraging ants can make several trips to the bait. The communal nature of an ant colony allows the bait to be spread to hundreds, if not thousands, of individual ants.

How to Use Liquid Ant Baits

TERRO Liquid Ant Baits are very easy to use. Before placing the bait stations, be sure to remove other sources of food, such as crumbs, sugar and grease spots to prevent attracting ants elsewhere. Do not place bait where you’ve already sprayed insecticides, as the pests may avoid the bait stations.

1. Hold the bait station firmly with bait pack tab facing up. Break off the tab being careful not to spill the bait.
2. Place the bait station label side up on a flat surface near signs of ants. Place additional bait stations anywhere they may enter your home. For best results, use all bait stations to ensure a sufficient supply for the ants.
3. Monitor placements regularly, but do not interfere with the pests or bait stations. Replace when bait is depleted. Complete control may take up to two weeks.
4. Once ants are controlled, replace the baits every 3 months to keep them from returning.

Answer:	It doesn't kill anything!
Question:	how to open so ants will go in and out of the trap

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these the same design as described (the original that worked well ) or are they the changed design mentioned in some recent negative reviews
Answer:	I received the new design. I personally like the new design, choosing to use the option of separating the perforated traps into smaller strips therefore increasing the number of locations to place a single strip. However, this new design also gives you the option to tent the strip as the original design. Terro is the only product I've found to successfully monitor and trap brown recluse spiders that are otherwise hard to kill even with harsh pesticides.
Question:	How big is each trap
Answer:	The standard tri-fold trap, prob 6” once folded.
Question:	Is fall season right time to leave traps outside home
Answer:	You can put thses outside but if they get wet they are cardboard. I use them in the house to spiders and such. These are the best!
Question:	How many traps per 12'x10' room? Or how many feet between traps do you recommend
Answer:	We do not have specific recommendations as to how many traps are needed per room as this would vary depending on the number of insects or infestation and where their favorite hiding spots may be. There is no limitation to how close together or far apart they should be. Simply place in the corners of the room, along walls, and in other areas where insects or spiders may crawl or make webs.
