Re: Ants!
We have had problems with tiny ants. Really didn't have any problems last spring/summer - now for the past two weeks, we've been inundated!!! We use the terra traps but now the ants are in a lot of places where the pets like to hang out so I am afraid to put down the traps!!! I told DH we have to deal with this tomorrow!

These don't seem to be the tiny ants; more like the regular size you'd see on the sidewalk. so far we haven't seen any on the floor, more like the ceiling and crown molding areas.

Re: Ants!
We get them every spring before my DH gets a chance to clean the gutters. I was told to keep the gutters clean and bushes cut away from the house by inches. We also have a tree that overhangs the corner of our house near the dining room which is where they seem to be most prevalent. We've used an exterminator in the past and they are gone in one shot. But I have heard great things about the Terra baits. I am ready and waiting for them already.

Clean with white vinegar and put some black pepper down.
