Mighty Mint Peppermint Oil Ant Killer Spray – Natural Ant Repellent for Indoor & Outdoor Use – Plant-Based Insect & Pest Control – 16 oz

This product does kill ants on contact, and does not have that awful toxic odor. The peppermint smell is strong but I'd much rather smell that than poison. Sprayed around the perimeters of the house, doors, etc., it may take a few applications to stop ants from coming in but it seems it eventually deters them. Overall I love this spray!

I woke up one day to the beginning of an ant issue and I HATE bugs! But I also hate the chemicals used in killing bugs being in the house. So I found this product. IMMEDIATE satisfaction! Killed the ones there and no more came in. Bonus is it has a pleasant smell.

Actually works, some ants are tougher, so you use more of it. Not afraid to use around the garden. Strong but pleasant smell, all natural ingredients. I have not noticed any discoloration or spots on leaves. I also try to keep bees safe, so no intentional flower sprays.

I moved into a brand new shiny apartment, and 2 days later what do I wake up to, but sugar ants. Everywhere. When I tell you there was not a single iota of human food in this apartment, I am not kidding. The most delicious thing in here was a bowl of cat food, and man did they find it. When I moved the cat bowl, they started swarming my bag and whatever sweater or shoes I left on the floor (seriously? Whats even good about that??). Once they came, they were here to stay. Anyways, I have a cat, so a few minutes on Amazon later, I find this stuff. When I say it kills them on contact, I mean it. They immediately shrivel up and die. A good spraying around the baseboards and I get a day or two of peace. Now, this a 300 sq foot studio for a broke student, so the peppermint smell is less pleasantly holiday themed and more "Christmas threw up in here." I keep a window cracked, and just freeze. The cat is not thrilled, but she's not contributing to the ant war so she doesn't get to talk. I got a little complacent, enjoying the lack of aroma in my home, and they reappeared today. I sprayed my floors like you would not believe, and they're all dead. Their friends will not broach my floorboards for another few days. As I write this, one of the last stragglers just crawled up my back and bit me. It works. Just keep up with it. If you want to eradicate the nest, you're gonna need something they carry back, and that is not this, so this stuff requires some upkeep to repel. Hopefully they will give up soon.

Pros: smells great, does kill ants on contact, easy to use, ingredients are safe Cons: does not control ants. The product doesn't claim to do this. it only kills on contact. New Jersey ants have a few worker ants killed and the rest enjoy the scent. I swear! Product is not strong enough to manage colonies or a hot summer of ants in everything.
