AMDRO Fire Ant Killer For Lawns
Keep your yard protected from painful fire ant infestations with a powerful, easy-to-use lawn treatment designed to kill existing fire ant colonies and help prevent new mounds from forming. Its advanced two-way formula combines a fire ant bait with an insect growth regulator, allowing worker ants to carry the bait deep into the colony where it eliminates the queen and destroys the mound at its source.
Ideal for lawns, landscaped areas, ornamental gardens, and around shrubs and trees, this 5 lb bag treats up to 10,000 sq. ft. and provides up to 3 months of season-long control. The ready-to-use granules require no mixing and can be applied quickly with a broadcast or handheld spreader for fast, convenient coverage.
Instructions for Use
-
Apply when fire ants are actively foraging — typically in the early morning or late afternoon when soil temperatures are above 60°F.
-
For heavy infestations, spread 1 lb per 1,000 sq. ft.
-
For light infestations, spread 1 lb per 2,000 sq. ft.
-
Use a rotary broadcast spreader or handheld granular spreader for even application.
-
Do not apply to wet grass or when rain is expected within 24 hours.
-
Do not water the lawn after application.
-
Keep children and pets off treated areas during application; they may return once the dust has settled.
-
Do not use on vegetable gardens or food crops.
For best long-term results, many homeowners apply the product at the first sign of fire ant activity and retreat as needed throughout the warm season. Community users frequently report noticeable reductions in mound activity within 1–2 weeks after application.
