How These Ant Killer Granules Work
These granules contain diatomaceous earth, a fine powder made from fossilised diatoms. It damages the protective layer of insects, causing them to dehydrate naturally. This makes it a safe alternative to chemical ant and insect control indoors and in gardens.
The granules are picked up by worker ants and carried into the nest, targeting the colony at its source. This approach provides longer-term results and reduces the need for repeated chemical sprays around your home or outdoor space.
Where to Use Granular Ant Control
Apply indoors near entry points, under appliances, behind skirting boards, or along ant trails. Outdoors, spread the granules around patios, lawn edges, conservatory walls, and paving joints. For spider mite control, dust lightly around affected plant bases in greenhouses or pots.
Pet-Safe Ant Control for the Home and Garden
These granules are safe to use in pet-friendly areas once they’ve settled. They're ideal for family homes and gardens where sprays or baits aren’t suitable. Always apply to dry surfaces and keep pets away during and immediately after treatment.
Application Tips
Sprinkle where ants are active or where pest insects are seen. Indoors, use under sinks, around bin areas or next to doorways. Outdoors, focus on visible trails, ant mounds and cracks. Avoid watering the area immediately after use. Reapply as needed or after heavy rain.
The recommended dose is 10 to 50 grams per square metre depending on the pest level and location.
What These Ant Granules Help Control
