Ant Killer Spray 250ml | Kills Ants, Woodlice, Cockroaches & Crawling Insects | Insect Killer Indoor & Outdoor Use | Invisible Weatherproof Lacquer Barrier | Trusted Since 1959

Amazing stuff and it's clear great for ants in the kitchen

This is something I have used before, its very effective, but not readily available in stores, so to get it delivered next day was really good, and at a good price too

Not had the ant killer, but the insect one, Same difference we guess.Use it each year in our orangery as it attracts wood lice in there, did the trick after just one spray!No overpowering spray, lasted all winter up to now.Good value for money too.

It started with a couple of ants...Found in my conservatory, a spray outside of a 'similar' product, appeared to do the job...Or so I thought.A few days later there were more ants, so I used caulk to seal the gap between laminate floor and skirting board trim, this appeared to do nothing other than give the ants an excuse to find any possible gap that was left in the vicinity, which they did, including 1 super-ant who appeared to break through caulk (he must have had his weetabix).In tribute to that particular ant, I let him escape outside, a mark of respect for what he had done, with a warning that a re-appearance would not be tolerated, I would assume he heeded the warning, if he did not and was caught in the battle mentioned below, RIP super-ant.Basically, caulking the gaps was not working, so much so, that they ended up coming through under the door between lounge and conservatory, which was a total pain, this was now time for a proper battleplan.Stage 1 = This involved lifting up the carpet in the lounge, and placing small amounts of ant-powder all across the edges, followed by a spray of 'Dethlac' a double solution you could say. Basically any point they were getting in there from, was blocked with powder and spray. Put the carpet back down (gently, so as not to get a cloud of ant powder in your face)That ended their advance into the lounge, and kept them inside the conservatory, where I had deliberately left 1 small hole near the skirting, every so often, I would see an ant poke its head out of there, and have a wander around. That to me, meant, the problem was not solved, merely slowed down.Stage 2 = Find the entry point, given I had not seen any obvious routes into the house, and had placed ant powder outside the entire perimeter of the conservatory, without success, the only place they could realistically be coming from, would be under the patio door (again, this was not visible but seemed the only plausible route in).Out came the Dethlac, sprayed under the outside of the door, including the gaps around it, and the gap between the door opening/sliding part.The result, no more ants.I had been recommended Dethlac, by a family member. and noticed it was not readily available in the usual stores, and whilst I am not saying other products would not work, it would seem Dethlac is the best, certainly in my experience.I will probably re-spray the area every 2 months or so, over the summer, and that should hopefully keep the ants away.

I have used Deathlac for many years but recently it doesn't seem as potent as it was. Perhaps a change of formula?It's a lacquer based spray that does keep working for a long time. It can be sprayed on walls or steps to deter ants from entering the property. Much better than the powder alternative.

Great item

Best ant killer/presenter l have ever used. Very reliable.

We suddenly had a lot of small black insects on the wood floor in our hallway. Never had thrm before. Sprayed thus around the skirting boards and doorways and not seem any since. Coincidence?
