How strongly 4 sources agree — expert labs and real owners, with community voices weighted heavier. Not one reviewer’s opinion; the pattern across all of them.
- Unanimously recommended by homeowners across multiple Reddit communities
- Slow-acting borax poison targets and eliminates the entire colony, not just foragers
- Easy to use, just place where ants are seen and let them do the work
- Seeing ants swarm the bait before dying can be unsettling before results kick in
- Bait stations can be knocked over by robot vacuums, causing spills
- Takes a couple of days before you see results, not an instant fix
“all the ants filled the baits and died inside. I guess the entire colony followed because I have two baits that are filled with dead ants.”r/HomeImprovement
Terro T300 has built a loyal following among homeowners who report that patience is the key to its colony-killing payoff, with one user describing how “all the ants filled the baits and died inside”2 after the entire colony followed the bait trail. Most users confirm it takes time for the borax to work through the nest, and those who stick with it note “those baits do a good job and I've had success with them every year”1. However, a vocal contingent on r/pestcontrol has flagged a potential red flag: “the new stuff doesn't work at all”, with users pointing to a recent formula change as the culprit. For heavy infestations, the economics can also sting, since the bait “may need to be replaced every three days, which could get expensive”.
