:x They have managed to get everywhere!! :x
How do I get rid of them? Does anyone know!? I do have a huge garden.. I have put ant powder down but they are still marching around our house like they own the place! I've called environmental health but apprently they are not considered a public pest! I beg to differ! I have detoled the whole place! Leaving nothing sweet out.. & spraying everywhere I see them! Nothing seem's to be deterring them! :roll:
Does any one know how to get rid of them???? ?

I'd rather ants than slugs..when i first bought my house they kept coming in to the kitchen and it was horrid. I hate slugs. Kept fillign in all the holes I found and the little buggers still kept coming in - only stopped when we retiled and redid the skirting.
kia, omg i can't stand slugs they make me feel sick! i'm shuddering now just thinking about them!!
hope you manage to get rid of the ants natalie x
Definately be careful if you try jeyes fluid - I've used it for cleaning up outside and I remember having to shut the cat up - cat was not impressed being shut up
So how do you apply it for ants in a home or garden. First get some icing sugar and then mixing it 1-1 with the Drione Next sprinkle it using a tea strainer under the kitchen units behind white goods appliances and anywhere else you have seen them. Outside move flowerpots a favourite place for ants and sprinkle the dust here you can also lift up large stones and put some dust here.
The way it works is very simple ants love sugar but mixed with the Drione the ants will take the sugar back to the nest and dry out the colony.
I hope this has helped but if you need more info you can ask more questions on pest control here.
