If birds eat the dead ants, will it harm the birds? I would use the spot treatment on large black ant colony with the trap liquid or granular treatment.
Question by: Bob on Apr 25, 2025, 8:20 AM
Thank you for your inquiry.
If birds consume ants that have been exposed to the treatment, the potential for harm would depend on the amount ingested. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide a definitive answer, as it can vary based on several factors including species sensitivity and exposure level.
