Are the ant guards a plain red color or are they lettered with the wording "Trap-It" like in the photo?

plain red, the picture has a band with information on it which needs to be removed when you install it on the feeder.

I put it out but I never noticed it. I also use the the Tarro liquid and I do see the ants gather around this quite a bit

Ours was a maroon red solid color with black fur lining. Cute but definitely not what I was expecting. Made decently though.

They were red. I saw that same description error after I ordered them but they came in the color pictured and stated in the head line.Russ~

The color is absolutely red. I really like them. They have stuck to the wall well and I am very happy with them.

Yes, they are red. Unlike other stakes I've owned, they are easy to spot in grass.

They don't have insecticide nor do they have anything to attract the bugs. They're entirely passive, just a patch of very strong glue on a piece of paper. Bugs are VERY predictable. They like to skitter around where the wall meets the floor, so just put the traps near the wall and in corners.

It is granular bait. The label says it can withstand being rained on and still work. Almost all the ant baits out there contain borac acid which causes the insects to burst (explode) from the gas buildup inside. I have mixed results using this bait. On one hand, I had some carpenter ants around the outside of the house. After using the bait, a couple months later they're gone. On the other hand, I had a tree infested with carpenter ants. There were so many coming and going, there must have been hundreds of them in the tree. I poured the bait on them and they just walked around it. I put 3 other types of ant bait there also. They didn't like any of it. Maybe they liked one of the baits the next days. Now It's a month later and I do not see them anymore.

Hang an ant moat/trap on top of it and fill it with water. The larger it is, the better. Example at: Ant Trap - Protect Bird Feed From Ants With the Trap-It Moat (Red) or make your own.

Don't know why. I have not seen the ad you are referring to but there is no red on the two I purchased. By the way, l love them. Turns out we could not recess them but a carpenter friend built discreet wood Boxes and we surface mounted them. Perfect.

Not sure but... I do see them here and there along with the little ants. This stuff is awesome. It's equivalent to what the pest control company we hire uses.... it works. Within 24 hours. Most poisons take about 3 days. Just be careful if you have kids

I am sorry in all my years of treating professionally I never used the advion ant bait gel outside. I always used granule bait or non repellant spray.. for ants outside .. what species of ants?

The color is like a brownish color. Pretty much like the picture showing here. We've been very happy with it. Squirrels haven't even tried to get to it. Now, the deer, on the other hand, had a field day. They even removed it from our pole!

the picture is misleading it is not that reddish. i would consider it more of a medium oak finish but it is slightly to the orangish side and that may be why the photo appears red - the camera may have picked up the warm tones of this.

Yes it does! This is a wonderful product. It did the job within a day. You might see a bunch of ants, but it's because it's luring them all out of your walls, etc. to poison them and bring back to queen.

Mine is a golden brown color and works great at keeping the squirrels out of my bird feeders. I have squirrel fur on my bird feeder pole. I would not use it to deter children.
