From what I understand, the insects bring it back to their home, feed to everyone, and as it's slow working poison, kills the bunch of them.

 

The yellow powder and yellow grain stuff I bought was also supposed to do that, but apparently didn't.  This stuff is less messy and seems to attract them better, so we shall see how it goes.

It's been around a week and the tiny micro ants haven't returned, so the liquid drops seem to have done the trick.  I found it at Tops supermarket.  Someone else said they got it on Lazada.

I can confirm this stuff does seem to work well for the tiny micro ants.  After I used it they were gone within a couple days.

I have an ant problem in my condo.  Those tiny micro ants.  No idea where they are coming from.  They just magically appear.  No matter how carefully I try clean up food crumbs, there is always going to be something somewhere that attracts them.  Maybe there is some poison or something I can use that they take back with them and kill off the whole colony?  Not sure if spray will work unless I can find out where they are coming from.  Don't want to be spraying anywhere I prepare food.

I had the same problem, before shutting the door in my room for the night, which is detached from the rest of my house, I just scooted the spray stuff you can buy in any 7-11 etc inside the whole of the room before shutting it and the next morning no more ants, repeat every week or so.

Peppermint Essential Oil worked for me. Put some in a spray bottle diluted 20% with water.Spray and wipe all surfaces that you see them in.Mine disappeared within a day or 2.

Where do you buy Peppermint Essential Oil? I could do with some for the kitchen.
