As anyone who has ever had to deal with them knows, fire ants are a real menace in the yard and getting rid of them is no easy feat. EcoSmart Fire Ant Killer Mound Drench takes the fight directly to their nest - the mound. When you eliminate the mound, you deprive them of their shelter and wipe out their larvae and queen. Without a queen or a mound, the colony cannot survive. This spray uses the active ingredients of rosemary oil, peppermint oil and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate to kill on contact, but also repels any ants that may seek to return to the mound. With this fast-acting product, you'll see results the same day you spray.
