Exterm-an-ant | Ant Killer
Looking for the best ant bait in NZ that actually solves the problem long-term? Exterm-an-Ant Ant Killer is designed to eliminate entire colonies by targeting the source—not just the ants you see. With a proven baiting system that ants carry back to the nest, it delivers fast, effective, and lasting control for New Zealand homes.
Key Benefits
- Kills the whole colony, including the queen
- Fast-acting results within 24–48 hours
- Long-term control, not just a temporary fix
- Easy to use with simple bait placement
- Ideal for indoor and outdoor use
- Trusted solution for NZ households
Why This Is One of the Best Ant Baits in NZ
Not all ant treatments are created equal.
Many products like sprays and powders only kill ants on contact, which means the colony survives and the problem comes back.
Exterm-an-Ant works differently:
- Ants are attracted to the bait
- They carry it back to the nest
- The bait spreads through the colony
- The queen is eliminated
Result: Complete colony control instead of short-term relief.
What Ants Does It Work On?
Effective against common ant species in New Zealand, including:
- Argentine ants
- Darwin ants
- Other sugar-feeding household ants
How It Works
Exterm-an-Ant uses a targeted baiting system with boric acid.
Worker ants consume the liquid bait and carry it back to the nest, where it is shared with other ants—including the queen. This process allows the treatment to spread through the entire colony, leading to full elimination.
How to Use
- Shake well before use
- Pour 4–5 mL into a shallow dish, bottle cap, or bait station
- Place near ant trails, entry points, or high-activity areas
- Use multiple bait stations for larger infestations
For Best Results
- Remove other food sources to increase bait effectiveness
- Avoid using sprays near the bait
- Do not disturb feeding ants
- Reapply every 4–6 weeks if needed
What to Expect
- Increased ant activity at first (this means it’s working)
- Ants begin dying within 24–48 hours
- Colony elimination typically within a few days to a week
Where to Use
- Kitchens
- Pantries
- Around entry points
- Along ant trails
- Outdoor areas around the home

With Raid liquid ant killer no longer available I tried a couple of other proprietary brands. The ants showed very little interest in them over a two week period. This product did the business. Within a couple of days there were no more ants.
easy to apply, the ants ate and drank to excess, after 10 days no more ants – cleared many hundreds of dead soldiers from the floor, the rest died in the nest. Highly recommended
First time purchaser and really happy – fast delivery and product is fantastic – ants are disappearing.
Amazing product. So much better than the stuff you get from the supermarket and trade stores. Takes a bit of perseverance and resisting the urge to clean up the dead ants but once they are gone they are gone. The ants seem to smell this stuff and come running in their thousands.
While I am on my 3rd bottle of ant exterminator I have to say this is the first product I have used that has made a notable difference to the amount of ants. Its really nice to be able to hang my washing on the line again after so long of having to battle ants for the of the lines. I am still putting the stuff out and there is still ants but only about a quarter of the number there used to be its decreasing daily. Yes I had about 6 any nests around the house 3 are no longer there from what I can see but will keep looking. 🙂 Thank you for a product that does as it claims.
