The KM Ant Pro System is an outdoor baiting system only. It is designed to provide year round feeding for ants. Ants that are indoors, always come from the outside. So baiting outdoors will not only stop ants from getting indoors, it also provides a source of food for future ants that invade from outside areas.
Ants that are are indoors almost always feed outdoors. The normal diet for most ants are insects and honeydew, plant juices, etc. The reason that they are indoors, is usually only because they are looking for additional food sources, which they can sometimes find.
Baiting outdoors with the KM Ant Pro system will actually "pull" the ants from indoor areas to the outdoors. This takes some time, but this is the best way to kill them.
If you want to kill them as quickly as possible with something, then ALWAYS use a bait some kind of transfer effect such as Advion or Maxforce Ant Killer Gel. Although this is not the best way to kill them, because you probably won't kill the queens or the nest, you will get relief and a fairly decent population "reduction". In other words, the ants will be back, and will continue to come back every so often until you kill the nest.
The only way to kill ants nests or colonies is with outdoor baiting program or a very thorough "wall and void" type treatment with insecticidical foams, dusts or sprays that have a transfer effect. Most of these products can only be applied inside of walls or on the immediate outer foundation.
Sorry for the long reply, bottom line is that the KM Ant Pro System is for outdoors only.
Hope this helps.
