When I moved into my ground floor flat I noticed straight away there was a problem with ants, the patio was crawling with them and it was obvious there was a nest of them out there somewhere.
I had never really come across this problem before as this was the first ground floor property I've lived in, neeless to say I was panicking as some of them had got indoors and I could'nt get a proper nights sleep until they were gone!
For the first couple of weeks I tried a few ant killer treatments i.e. sprays and powders , but tthey simply just did not work. In complete frustration I contacted the Council Office to ask for advice. They took my name and address and said they would send me some leaflets which arrived a couple of day's later recommending Nippon Ant Killer liquid.
I had to travel to my local garden centre to buy the liquid as none of the shops where I bought the sprays or powders from sold it.
The liquid comes in a clearly labeled 4 inch red and black 30ml tube with an easy to screw off lid, it is an insecticide used for the control of common black ants in and around the home, and a 30ml tube is enough to destroy between 4 to 6 nests.
It is advised to use the product in late evening by placing a couple of drops of the liquid onto a flat piece of glass, plastic or metal, this in turn should be placed near or on the ant run, but through experience I've found putting the liquid directly onto the concrete flooring works too. The drops should also be changed each and every day.
The ants are attracted to the liquid by the smell and it is used by them as a food source which they pass onto the Queen ant and the rest of the colony, the liquid is poisonous to the ants and once ingested they die and within 7 to 10 days all the ants should be destroyed.
I had my doubts about this product working after having such bad results with the sprays and powders, but I can honestly say this product works extremely well, from day 1 the ant activity got less and less, I used it for the recommended 10 days but the ants were gone within the week.
I've used this liquid for 2 summers in a row and still have the same tube so it has lasted me a while and luckily this summer there has been no sign of any ants.......not yet.
Dont waste your time and money on powders or sprays as I did, the liquid definately wotks and got rid of my ant problem.
The liquid is clear im colour and seems more of a gel than a lquid, and has no smell to it at all. Directions for use, ingredients and precautions are all listed on the tube and easy to read and understand.
It is advised to keep out of the reach of children and animals and to wash hands after use.
Cant remember exactly but cost around £2.00 for 30ml.

This stuff is the bee's knees and has been around for donkey's years. My mum use to use it and I use to cry my eyes out because she was murdering the ants! I'm 37 now and I'm still as daft as a brush. I can't kill slugs, wasps, ants, mice, any darn pest in the garden! (Although that cat that keeps pooping in my flower bed and attacking our poor dog (ripped his ear open a few weeks back) is heading for a soaking with the hosepipe!!! See, I am evil really! Great review, thanks - LS

Ants are the bane of my life in the summer - I hate them! I tried looking for this after someone at work recommended it but I couldn't find it anywhere. If I see some I am definitely going to buy a tube!
Advantages: It really does attract the ants and get rid of them for you Disadvantages: They can come back, especially in hot weather when they are rife.
