MGK will use its platform at the National Pest Management Association’s (NPMA’s) PestWorld 2025, the industry’s premier new product showcase, to announce its newest innovation: Sumari Triton Ant Gel Bait. This exclusive bait matrix takes the guesswork out of ant baiting by combining three food sources —sugar, oil and protein — to meet ants’ nutritional needs in a single bait.
This new product joins the existing Sumari System lineup, which includes an effective non-repellent insecticide spray and a popular ant gel bait. This launch follows several recent improvements to the Sumari family, specifically the insecticide:
- The Environmental Protection Agency’s acceptance of clothianidin, Sumari’s active ingredient, for use in food-handling establishments and commercial kitchens
- Expanded labeled pests with the addition of wasps, hornets and yellowjackets
- Updated ant control language emphasizing colony elimination and prevention of re-infestations
“Sumari Triton is another chapter in MGK’s commitment to innovation and continuous improvement in the pest control industry,” says MGK President Steve Gullickson, adding that feedback from pest management professionals (PMPs) “drove the development of the Sumari System, and it quickly became a game-changer in ant control treatments. We’re excited to bring this next-generation bait with Nutrilure technology to provide even more value to PMPs — helping reduce callbacks and increase profitability.”
Sumari Triton is powered by Nutrilure, a trademarked bait matrix developed by MGK’s research and development scientists. Nutrilure allows for the inclusion of three different nutritional sources in one bait while maintaining palatability and optimal uptake across most ant species.
MGK’s commitment to sustainable packaging and the protection of those using its products is reflected in Sumari Triton and the entire Sumari System:
- All plastic packaging, caps, syringes and tips are 100 percent recyclable
- All paper labels and inserts are sourced from sustainably managed forests
- Sumari Triton is formulated without crustacean shellfish, eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, sesame, soy or wheat to minimize allergenic impact during use
- Both Sumari gel baits include bittering agents to help protect against accidental consumption by pets and children
