Here’s what works for ants….go back to Home Depot (or wherever) and get TERRO. It comes in a sort of small bottle, it’s sort of a clear gel that you put a couple of drops on the little cardboard squares that come in the box and set them out everywhere. We had ants for the longest time (only b/c I didn’t realize they WERE ants; they were so small). Then came the ones with wings that I could actually see; got the Terro and in one to two days …GONE! And we haven’t had any since then! Not only that, it’s not expensive, it takes so little that the bottle will last for a good long time. OH….the liquid sort of hardens after it’s been out for a couple of days, so I just dropped a little more on top if that happened. You can also use pieces of aluminum foil if you run out of the cardboard squares. Amazing stuff! Good luck!
