Outcast Ant Bait Station is a new self-contained ready-to-use delivery system for Syngenta’s ant control gel bait.

The bait station is instantly activated by tearing off a tab and squeezing the gel into the bait compartment.

A spokesperson for Syngenta commented, "Now, professional pest controllers can use both Advion® Ant Gel and Outcast Ant Bait Station to undertake a full ant control programme in homes and businesses. They can also then leave behind Outcast Ant as a follow up treatment to be used by customers where required.

"Outcast Ant Bait Station is highly effective against most common species of ants causing nuisance to homes and businesses in the UK, including the black garden ant (Lasius niger). Trials have also shown efficacy of the bait on Argentine ants (Linepithema humile), ghost ants (Tapinoma melanocephalum), and the increasingly challenging super colonies of invasive garden ants (Lasius neglectus)."

Visit the Syngenta stand at PPC Live in Harrogate on 11 March to find out more about Outcast Ant and pick up a voucher for a free sample.
