How Maxforce FC Works
Maxforce FC bait contains a slow-acting poison known as fipronil. This chemical substance works by contact and ingestion and attacks an ant's nervous system, causing it to lose the ability to perform normal functions. The poison doesn't work right away. Instead, it slowly takes over the ant's nerve function, giving the pest enough time to spread the poison to other members in the colony through contact.
Where to Use Maxforce FC Ant Bait Stations
Use Maxforce FC ant bait stations for controlling ant infestations in and around businesses and residences. It keeps ants from raiding pantries and stops them from taking over food-packaging areas. Set the bait stations in warehouses and garages and outside homes around the foundation. It has an adhesive backing for easily applying the bait to ground surfaces and vertical areas like walls and deck railings.
Target Pests
Maxforce targets numerous ant species that hunger for protein in their diets. Ants consume sugar and protein and sometimes prefer one more than the other. Therefore, it's wise to use a sugar-based gel with Maxforce protein-based ant bait for more effective control. Some of the target ant species include:
- Acrobat ants
- Argentine ants
- Crazy or tawny ants
- Odorous house ants
- Pavement ants
Reasons to Use Maxforce FC Ant Bait
- Targets a variety of ant species
- Provides indoor and outdoor ant control
- Slow-acting poison to target the entire colony
- Reduces ant populations by 90 percent in four days
- Easy to apply to surfaces
Target Ant Infestations With Maxforce FC Ant Bait Stations
The longer an ant colony sits undisturbed, the more likely it will grow out of control and spread to other areas. Maxforce FC ant bait stations eliminate several ant species and start to work within six hours of application. Within four days, the infestation will reduce by 90 percent. These ant bait stations not only kill the ants quickly but also provide residual control for weeks.
