Formication just enjoy it

I have purchased this Raupenleim which is explicitly promoted by the manufacturer for use against ants, among others for use against those very. When I leveled him to the Birnbaum around, I noticed that quite a traffic jam had formed on ants that were seemingly doomed to stay forever on the tree. The somewhat bad conscience about it I would but I can save, because the very next day they walked briskly through the glue over it, as I could see. He seems to bother her a bit, but they do not stick it firmly and able to pass him ultimately. Aufzuspachteln a thicker layer (spatula went much better than brushes) does not help either, because it developed over time a flow property and a part flows down a bit, so that the film thickness reduced by itself to a certain extent.
By applying ago I found the principle but already good because Leimringe on paper were easily infiltrated by the ants - by the bark form at Leimringen always some loopholes. Glue the other hand, one can filling in all the cracks even with rough bark. Next year I'm going to try Leimringe from another manufacturer and the cracks with the Raupenleim plug up, maybe that helps so. Grafting wax is for the purpose of not more favorable.
Its real purpose, which I had bought him, he has not with me but fulfilled. Unfortunately.
Maybe he does not help yes against other types, against my ants anyway. For he is obviously not sticky enough - I did not think on his fingers he staring them namely huge and can be washed only with resin-dissolving hand cleaner.
