Best Fire Ant Man
#43
Indoxcarb is the same ingredient in Provaunt. It also comes in a corn grit bait like the others under the brand name Advion. The Hawaii Ant Lab rated its grit bait effectiveness low for being "hit or miss" on its effectiveness. That is the same problem I have with Amdro and Extinguish. The product is effective if the ants take it but it doesn't attract them like it used to. I did notice that Siesta contains soybean oil which could be why the ants like it so much. All the products are effective at killing LFA but only if they will take it. Amdro and the others seems to work poorly in humidity and not at all if it gets wet. Siesta continues to attract them until they are all dead so long as it doesn't get saturated.

One thing I have found with Siesta is how little it takes. If I find LFA in the house for example I only need to put out a large "pinch" worth of the granules where I see them and the next day the house is ant free. Yesterday I noticed the ground pipe that goes from our gutters to the catchment tank has an exposed area thanks to the chickens and it was an LFA highway. I put less than a teaspoon on it and covered it with a rock to keep the chickens out of it and today no ants.
