Yep, comes in cannisters or bags. I buy a bag because I tend to throw it out liberally when I see ants.

Also, use it when I go camping to help keep ticks and red bugs off. We prolly needed it at the beach at entmoot. But, what I do is just put my socks that I take camping in a ziplock bag with a little handful of sulphur and shake 'em up good. Seems to keep the stuff from wanting to crawl up your legs when hiking. Dunno if ya'll have ticks and red bugs up there or not.

We have ticks...but I don't know what a red bug is.

On the other hand, we have black flies. You haven't experienced nasty biting until you've met those. They prefer eyes and ears, and when they bite you bleed like crazy...it's bad.

Luckily they only last until summer...once it gets hot they disappear.
