You need to give the KM Ant Pro time to work. The boric acid based Gourmet Ant Bait takes several weeks to kill them AFTER they feed on it. Since they are actively feeding then that is the first hurdle. That is a great sign.
What usually happens is that the activity simply becomes less and less. You won't see dead ants, you won't see piles of ants. You just stop seeing ants.
There are 2 important things to consider.
1) Make sure that the Ant Pro Dispensers are properly activated and there is available ant bait for the ants. You can download the instruction sheet here.
2) Make absolutely certain that the Ant Pros are not in direct sunlight, and that they are in the shade. This is where ants feed. Also make sure to not spray anything around them. The ants have to transistion over to the Dispensers and accept the bait as a natural food source. There is nothing magical about this, it just happens.
If after 7-8 weeks or so, you don't see any difference in activity and you still see ants, let me know and I will have Ken at Ant Pro contact you to discuss.
Thanks,
Ron
