And when they start, no quick fix will do. You need something that really works, that attacks the problem from within and not just scares them away for a while. This granular insecticide from Compo is just that: a bait that they themselves carry to the anthill, helping to eliminate the infestation from the root.
Key Features
This granular ant killer is designed to quickly and effectively eliminate black or garden ants, acting both by contact and ingestion.
- Action as bait: it is sprinkled in passage areas or directly on the anthill. The ants carry it inside, helping to also eliminate larvae and the colony’s core.
- Use indoors and outdoors: you can apply it inside and outside the home, always avoiding living areas or frequently used paths.
- Long-lasting effect: it not only eliminates visible ants but also acts for a longer time to prevent them from reappearing quickly.
- Easy application: just use it in cracks, corners, or around visible nests, avoiding windy conditions.
- Practical format: 500 g container designed for domestic use (not professional).
Users highlight its real effectiveness:
“There are products like this that can eliminate them for a very long time,” “In one week I have already eliminated several anthills that had compromised my garden.”

What you should consider before using it
Although it is an effective product designed for domestic use, it is advisable to use it with caution to achieve the best results and avoid risks.
