After a bit of looking around I found a something that looked promising. It's this

Screenshot_5.png

Contains mixture of: 5-chloro-2-methyl-2H-isothiazol-3-one [EC no. 247-500-7] and 2-methyl-2Hisothiazol-3-one [EC no. 220-239-6] ( 3: 1), 1,2-benzisothiazol-3 (2H) -one. Can be an allergic

cause reaction.

 

Contains:

EUH210

EUH208

 

I was wondering if this is harmful to the ants. Cause I have a hard time finding info on that

The following glues will work fine once fully cured:
100% silicone
Hot glue
Super glue

What do you need it for? Are you sealing some panels? I use aquarium silicone and haven't had a problem with it. You need to let it cure somewhere with good ventilation, the stench is awful.
