Extinguish 25# Professional Fire Ant Bait
Description
Extinguish® Professional Fire Ant Bait targets fire ant colonies by using an insect growth regulator that affects the reproductive ability of the queen, ultimately leading to colony elimination. The active ingredient, (S)-methoprene, prevents the development of new worker ants, allowing the existing population to decline naturally over time. As workers forage and distribute the bait within the colony, the queen is impacted, leading to gradual collapse of the mound. Extinguish® Professional is designed for use in a variety of outdoor environments and is approved for USDA quarantine programs, making it suitable for regulated areas including nursery production. The bait formulation supports consistent uptake by foraging ants, helping ensure effective distribution throughout the colony. This product is commonly used in professional pest management programs where long-term fire ant control is required across managed landscapes.
