-   -   How do I get rid of Ants!? (http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=86932)

Okay, last night I left a box of fries on my table next to this computer. The box, obviously not empty, must have attracted Ants over night. I put some Ant Bait/Ant Poison in yjr area where the little invaders are but they keep coming for more! It's almost as if they just won't DIE!! The Ants seem to be coming out of a small crack in the wall. So I have to ask, how do I get rid of them? Do I gas them, Blow the house up, Or what?

Put cinnamon where ever they are coming in. It's cheap, works great, and smells a lot better then pesticides [img]smile.gif[/img]

Find their nest and pour a few litres of petrol down it. Then get a match and run like the dickins...

Put little signs everywhere: ants not welcome.

Or buy an aardvark or something. :D

Krear Sote...not sure if thats how its spelt but it does a good job at killin' ants.

Just try and keep it in the hole where they come out cuz it smells awful and leaves an icky brown stain...

Where it's legal use Diazone( I'm not sure of the spelling) or Chloridine on the nest and for several feet around it. Don't use around pets till it's dried.

For indoor control use:

(organic)
1)orange oil sprays
2)phrythrinn products
3)boric acid (powder form)
4)diatomaceous earth

(chemical)
1)sevin, either powder or liquid (where allowed by law)
2)ant and roach foggers (contain resmythrin, a synthetic phyrittrin product)
ex. Raid roach fogger

Put stones around the nest,and burn it.

Becuase you put stonese around the fire will not spread.!
