ANT BAIT (Masgi-Kil Jelly) 
Clean, odorless and easy to use. Works satis- 
factorily indoors and outdoors. 
Unusually effective because it contains Thallium 
Sulphate, which is tasteless to ants. The worker 
ants carry the jelly back to the nest, thus killing 
the queen and the entire colony. 
For general applications use tubes. In the pres- 
ence of children and pets, use traps.
