I went to the local hardware store...THANK YOU ALL. I went to the local hardware store this morning and had the most delightful chat with Chet about the huge ant problem in town. He told me to get TERRO. It's a clear liquid, you put a dab on a small piece of cardboard, place in all of the areas you have seen the little darlings, the ants take it back to the little ant village and it works like ant genocide(sorry)to the whole ant village It goes right to the source. I'll let you know. Naturally I have seen no ants this morning!!!Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04767701070804383829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-90306636664652494052009-05-07T09:41:00.000-04:002009-05-07T09:41:00.000-04:00PS The ant picture went well with my morning coffe...PS The ant picture went well with my morning coffee! :)Ina in Alaskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07163454431322742148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-40311513099817568092009-05-07T09:40:00.000-04:002009-05-07T09:40:00.000-04:00Debra, what an annoying problem and I have nothing...Debra, what an annoying problem and I have nothing to add other than to try what the commenters have suggested.

Do you know where they are coming in? Maybe you could do a wash down outside somewhere. We had ants and luckily around the same time we were having out house painted - their ant path smell got painted over and we haven't seen them since (fingers crossed!)littlebyrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00769222461364102029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-37400472021315442502009-05-07T08:21:00.000-04:002009-05-07T08:21:00.000-04:00Debra, you are not alone.

Yesterday I was showing the condo to hopefully renters, when a HUGE black ant decided to put his/her input into the conversation. I was so.... <br />BTW I don't think the ant will keep them away, they called already this morning wanting to drop the application off. LOL... Fingers cross...<br /><br />I'm going to put the coins in the cabinet as mentioned, but if you hear of anything please share. Many hugs my friend! xoxoJoycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809643560097517895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-222436004558608252009-05-07T07:35:00.000-04:002009-05-07T07:35:00.000-04:00eeeek! we had an ant brigade last spring, well on...eeeek! we had an ant brigade last spring, well only a few to be exact, but my husband, "the terminator" was on lock down and had somehow eradicated the problem. he called it an "infestation" --<br />I think they are telling you to draw them.....in a kitchen lifescape!<br />(or perhaps it is your Grandmother giving you a little fire!)<br />pvepve designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03527745630303158002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-38824062584982870462009-05-07T07:33:00.000-04:002009-05-07T07:33:00.000-04:00I really don't know how to help you.
