The Way to Kill Ants, Snails, Slugs and Sow Bugs 
ANTROL for Ants; SNAROL for Snails, Slugs, Sow Bugs, Cutworms and Gophers 
Ants Destroyed in their Nests 
NEW METHOD “GETS” THEM AT THEIR SOURCE¬ 
SAFE, PERMANENT, EFFECTIVE. 
The Antrol system is adapted to any size house or garden 
and destroys all species of sweet eating ants. It is composed 
of small glass containers and a special formula of syrup. 
The containers are partially filled with syrup and placed 
about the outside edges of the house or along “ant” trails in 
the garden if the infestation occurs there. The ants smell 
the syrup, eat it and then transmit its mild poison to the 
queen in the nest. Soon the entire ant colony is destroyed! 
The complete system should cover 
every 15 feet around the outside of the 
house or “ant” trails in the garden. 
Antrol sets containing 4 containers 
and 1 4-oz. bottle of syrup. 75c. Antrol 
extra containers (each), 1254c.; Antrol 
syrup, 4-oz. bottle, 20c.; pint, 50c.; 
quart, 90c.; gallon can, $2.75. (Un¬ 
mailable). 
Quickly Kills Garden Pests 
SCIENCE PROVIDES NEW, SAFE METHOD THAT 
DOES THE WORK WITHOUT FUSS 
Snails, Slugs, Cutworms, Grasshoppers, Sow Bugs, Earwigs. 
Gophers, Etc., Are Exterminated 
Snarol is a ready prepared meal that you simply broad¬ 
cast on the ground under the vegetation. The pests eat the 
meal and are quickly destroyed. 
Snarol will not deteriorate from rain or 
sprinkling and also is non-injurious to vege¬ 
tation when used according to simple direc¬ 
tions. These features distinguish it from or¬ 
dinary controls and make Snarol popular 
with professional gardeners and nurserymen.
