Every ant problem that I have had over the years has been solved with this product. Terro has different formulas. They even have outdoor and carpenter ant bates specifically. They are effective and long lasting.

You bet. I have used this product on both the little red ants and the big black ones. I just dealt with a new onslaught from the other side of the yard (entering the house through some hidden crack in the foundation) this spring and honestly, they're gone.

While not an expert on ants, I do believe (based on the pictures) that I have some carpenter ants at my cabin. This Terro Ant Killer has greatly reduced my ant problem with all ants. There are still a few but nothing like before. For the price, it's definitely worth trying. I've got to order some more for my mother who has an infestation of thousands of small ants in her house. Wish I could answer your question with 100% certainty. I would, however, be surprised if it didn't work on carpenter ants. Terro has a website where they will answer any questions or concerns that you might have. http://www.terro.com/guide-ants.php

I have not seen ants attracted to it at all. It works great on killing nutsedge though-Follow the Dirt Doctors recommendations.

Probably not for the ants. It probably only works with creatures that eat wood and blocks some enzyme associated with digesting wood. I think it could prevent mold on wood, but if it already has mold, you should replace the wood first.

You may have odorous house ants, which the Maxforce ant killer bait gel would be effective on. However, if the ants are something else that truly only is attracted to protein, the Maxforce Complete granular ant bait that includes both sugar and protein bait components might work better.

We purchased a new home and the inspection found traces of carpenter ants. I did my research and found the ant trails. Then I applied this product generously over the ant trail areas. After a week they were gone. This product worked great on our carpenter ant problem.

Demand Cs is my go to product. Normally I wouldn't use it for carpenter ants. Termidor Sc works better in killing entire colony.

I thinks. It says kills ticks and fire ants on contact. I use it to kill fleas

I have yet to find an ant species that doesn't like this product. Granted, yours may be a different variety but I have seen it attract and kill at least 2 different types (Black and Crazy).

I think it will. It works with fire ants, and they are difficult to get rid of. This is the best product for killing ants--period.

YES. I live on a ranch and we have many varieties of ants. Big and small,, black and red, biting and stinging ones. I powder every nest I find at the entrance and any crawling ones around it. It works within minutes and is non toxic to birds and pets. Just be sure not to get the powder wet.

I wish I could tell you for sure, but I honestly don't know. It works extremely quickly and effectively with other ants and for the price I'd say it's definitely worth a try. Good luck!

Works with swarming carpenter ants. Fire ants usually found outside and there are many products to eradicate those.

The original version of this product killed them. The label says it does but the recent EPA guidelines forces Terro to create a less toxic blend of chemicals. This means it doesn't kill Ants anymore, they just find another route out of their colony. If you have a fire ant colony, this will keep them from coming out the entrance you spread it on, but they'll most likely just move the entrance a few feet or a few meters. To eradicate, you may need a homemade solution that is less environmentally friendly. I've sprinkled this dust directly on carpenter ants and fire ants outside the colony. Both didn't like it, but they ultimately survived and so did the colony I tried to block entrance to. This is more for taking care of the areas where they force a huge mountain of dirt onto your lawn, than for dealing with the reason it got put there.

I am sorry I cannot give you an absolute answer, I have only used it on fire ants, but I will try it on other ants and let you know!
