Greetings from Syngenta

Dr. Tim Husen

Each year, more customers turn to pest management professionals (PMPs) for peace of mind and effective solutions for ant infestations. PMPs across the country recognize new ant control challenges and understand their role as a vital part of their business. According to PCT magazine’s 2023 State of the Ant Control Market report findings, 61% of recently surveyed PMPs anticipate an increase in revenue from ant control services in 2023.

Because of your hard work and dedication, your customers can live a life uninterrupted by ants. We are grateful for all you do and are working to provide you with best-in-class tools and information for battling these pests. That’s also why Syngenta is proud to partner with PCT to sponsor the State of the Ant Control Market report. Surveyed PMPs have shared their recent ant control experiences, touching on subjects like the most recent ant control updates, marketing ideas and thoughts on the future of the industry. We hope this report is valuable as you continue to provide quality pest control and limit inconvenient callbacks.

Syngenta is committed to providing innovative solutions to maximize your ant control potential. Last year we launched our first dry flowable bait, Advion® MicroFlow insect bait, which helps PMPs enter the void to control ants in hard-to-reach areas. This attractive bait easily adheres to ants’ exoskeletons to be carried back to their nests while foraging, so a little goes a long way. Its flexible packaging, which consists of an 8-ounce jar with measuring scoops, gives PMPs the freedom to use their preferred application equipment.

Additional Syngenta ant portfolio solutions include:

  • Advion Insect granular bait, which features a palatable formulation ideal for perimeter pest control
  • Advion Ant and Optigard® Ant gel baits, which contain attractive bait matrices that appeal to all major ant species — even sweet feeders
  • Advion WDG, Demand® CS, Optigard Flex and Tandem® insecticides, which are residual spray products ideal for making preventive applications and controlling super-colony ant species

Ants may continue to bring new challenges, but we’re confident PMPs like you can handle whatever comes your way. We look forward to helping you provide powerful ant solutions for your customers.
