What is a Good Ant Killer?

What is a good ant killer?  What makes it good? What is not a good ant killer?

Ants are the number one pest in the United States.  Year after year, ants are the top searched term for pest control.  Ants provide the top reasons people purchase pest control products.  Ants are the number one reason customers call in an exterminator.  Ants live in every climate in the United States and year after year, are the biggest buzz word for searching for pest solutions.

If you are going to mess with ants, what is a good ant killer? You have many options.  The very best ant killer for a single ant crawling across the floor is your shoe.  Obviously, squishing ants with a fly swatter, a paper towel, or the swift flick of your wrist gets the job done on solo ants.  But typically, if there is one ant, there are many and that is a different story.

Preventing ants from getting into the home by sealing doors and windows makes for good ant control but that doesn’t necessarily kill them.  For treating ants, most people think of using a pest control product. A good ant killer product needs to fit several criteria…

A good ant killer must be effective and a good ant killer must be safe.  Don’t be hoodwinked into thinking harsh, chemical pesticides are the answer because they are not.  Most ant killer sprays are synthetic pesticides that come with a variety of problems.  They are potentially dangerous to humans and they can become completely ineffective over time.  This scenario of using a chemical pesticide to control ants ends up making the ants super resistant and you’ve exposed yourself and your family to toxic chemicals.  Not a good ant killer!

Instead, use Greenbug Ready to Use when ants show up.  Greenbug Ready to Use can control ants with a single spray and then future ants can be controlled by consistent applications in high-traffic ant areas. 

Greenbug uses Nature’s pest control ingredient of cedar oil to control ants.  Just like cedar chests and closets where you never see a bug, cedar is deadly to ants yet harmless to humans, animals and the environment.
