 Things you will need:

  • 1 cup Peanut Butter
  • 3 tablespoons of honey
  • 2 tablespoons of Amdro Fire Ant Killer (Boric Acid can be used instead of Amdro)
  • Flat mallet
  • Freezer bag
  • Disposable plastic bowl 
  • Disposable spoon
  • Empty Caulk tube
  • Caulk Gun
  • Plastic Straws
(Substitute caulk tube and caulk gun for a plastic honey container with a long nozzle)

Directions:

Mix together the honey and peanut butter in the bowl
Put the Amdro in the bag and pulverize with flat mallet into smaller granules
Mix the Amdro in with the other ingredients
Put the mixture into the plasctic tube or container
Inject into plastic straws
Cut straws up to 1 or 1 1/2" strips
Throw away plastic bowl and spoon
Place strips where ants are present
Be sure to keep out of reach of pets and kids
Freeze any straws that remain for later use
Do not put strips in direct sunlight as the ingredients will ooze out
Repeat after 10 days if needed
