This powder works indeed very well. The first order I couldn't open at all and when I contacted the seller, he immediately sent me another one. No problem at all. Fantastic seller.

Bit messy and is a light brown colour, when it rains it does go clumpy and like clay so will need washing off and redoing. Did do the job at keeping ants at bay.

Unfortunately we had to get some of this ant killer powder as they were getting to the food cupboards through gaps in between the windows panes from the patio. Mixed several large buckets of cold and boiling water which I used to wash away all of the powder after sprinkling some of this down. The water was pushed towards the areas of the house adjoining the patio with the windows and door closed. In conjunction with a 'rapid' insect repellent sprayed in holes, creases and small gap between a bracket of a mug holder as well as the insides of cupboards after being emptied and being left to air out for two days or so. This in conjunction with the predator insects such as spiders (house spiders - non venomous) and creepy crawlies we haven't seen a single ant since. We have opted for the natural pesticide in the form of predator insects such as spiders (house spiders - non venomous) but they can only do so much. Thanks to them we rarely get any ants in the house but ants are persistent especially when it comes crumbs from toasters they'll make a straight bee line for them and the area under the microwave. That's not a fault of the ants but the moronic way toasters are designed to be fire hazards, seriously have a look inside the slits and you'll find the crumbs catch in a upturn lip so you have to shake the damn toaster to get out most of the crumbs. I miss our old swan toaster, the crumbs fell unhindered onto the crumb tray which then was easily cleaned... but alas.... some people are just lazy and don't clean it so... it slowly died. Anyway, this ant killer powder is strong stuff as it is a biocide, use it sparingly and with gloves and always in tandem with other remedies such as natural ones. But if you're afraid of spiders this really won't help you much as I said ants are persistent. We grow our some of our own veg and have some flowers for the bees so we do have a thriving insect ecosystem even in the same patio where this has be sprinkled. But when they start climbing into the food pantry it calls for drastic measures the last thing anyone wants is ants in their cereals unless... you want some extra living protein in your cereal... eugh... no thanks very much. Edit: the house spiders we have are pretty small no bigger than my thumb, the larger spiders such as Daddy long legs often scurry away after a brief awhile as there aren't much insects in the house. Never the less I generally trap them and the very large spiders in a large container and release them across the road close to the bin area in the adjoining block. We stopped getting bin flies after awhile so added bonus there. So far haven't come across any venomous spiders then again we don't live in the country side.

I bought this as our gardens are teeming with ants every year and the wee beasties like to march right up the wall and through any open window or door they find to get inside the house. We can't use poisons inside because of pets but the idea was to apply outside all along the base of all the walls and by the doors to make sure they would have to march through the poison on their sneaky forays into the house. It seems to work as have not seen an ant for days but that could be because of the awful weather since we received this ant poison powder. However, using this powder was frustrating and possibly a tad dangerous... So you have to tip the container upside down if you are wishing to apply ot to something beneath you like the floor or patio, but in doing so the hole the powder is supposed to squeeze out of gets blocked after the first squeeze. We tried shaking it like the old fashioned ketchup bottles but it didn't really help. So we angled the container, 45 to the floor and squeezed and big puffs did come out but because you have to get down to floor level to do this you also get a faceful which is probably hazardous. I rushed in the first time to strip off my clothes and shower quickly just in case, but at this point we had only covered 6 inches in a thin line, so I then got my painting overalls on and a face mask and goggles and big thick washing up gloves and then I continued whilst my partner did some gardening down the other end of the garden out of harms way. Also, although this angle worked better it still clogged up every third or fourth squeeze, that is to say every few inches of floor to wall edge. We were only looking to apply a thin line but because of this issue we had big blobs and then no coverage in places so I sacrificed a dustpan and used it to even the dust out so there was coverage. So I have taken a star off for this major faff. A better delivery system is needed. Honestly an old fashioned cardboard box with a side cut out to pour like the old salt boxes would be far better and less likely to get in eyes and mouth in my opinion.

Fast acting great value ant killer, the best I’ve used, applied last night, zero ants this morning. Would highly recommend
