ANTS!
I can't stand it!
We had an ant problem in the beginning of summer. Some spray and a few baits an they were gone.
They are back with a vengeance now. Sprayed, Baits - NOTHING. I came home from work just now to find, no joke, 20 of them walking up my counter all together. And then about another 15 randomly on my counter top and wall.
I want to VOMIT. I cannot stand the site of them. I'm so itchy from just watching them walk
What else can I do to get rid of these suckers

Re: ANTS!
Hot shot spray worked for me. Safe for pets and children.

Re: ANTS!
Get Terro traps! They were the only thing that worked for me. It's gross at first because they will swarm to it, but I have been ant free since spring because of them.

Re: ANTS!
Ugh this is a TERRIBLE year for ants! We have had more this year than in the past 10 years combined. It's gross. IDK what is going on.
It probably doesn't help when my 2 year old son is leaving random cookies everywhere

Re: ANTS!
Omg! It's awful this year. Never had an issue before and I'm a neat freak yet they still get into my home. I'll have to buy something good. It's gross I must vacuume right after my 14 month old eats or else one tiny crumb and they find their way in.
Ants and fruit flies. Stinks!

Re: ANTS!
we ended up having terminex come like 3-4 times before they were finally gone for GOOD. It was AWFUL in the spring/early summer. We baited, used the gels, sprayed - you name it ... they ALWAYS came back.
We are now having the perimeter of our house treated quarterly and it seems to be working.

We had a MAJOR ant problem in the sping/summer and tried everything for weeks. It was finally the Terro traps from Home Depot that got rid of them for good! We put 4 traps outside and 2 inside and within 4-6 days they were totally gone!
