Yea I bought these exact same traps and they did the trick. I haven't seen any more ants yet. I'll just need to remember to set a new one out every 3 months like it recommends to keep them away.

On a side note, I've used Grants Ants before and never had any luck with them.

We'll get a few carpenter ants here and there was the warm weather rolls in from Spring time, but they always vanish.

These type of ants make their colonies behind walls and other hard to reach areas. If that stuff is illegal, I don't need it anywhere near my dog. Plus with Terro I can just have one or two traps out and it will wipe out an entire colony.
