Product OverviewUse AMDRO® fire ant yard bait to kill fire ants you can see and those you can not. This yard treatment bait is spread across your lawn and lures fire ants to take the bait back to their nests. The bait contains two active ingredients, hydramethylnon and (S)-methoprene, which are metabolic inhibitors and growth inhibitors.
The bait is digested by the young fire ants and the liquid by product is spread from ant to ant to queen. The queen becomes sterile and can not reproduce. Without new ants to forage for food, the fire ant colony will starve and die, thus eliminating the colony.
