Ants... anyone

I had a trail of ants, that would not go away no matter what I used to deter them. I love ants, but in their proper place.  I read that cinnamon somehow interrupts  their trails.   So, I sprinkled cinnamon on the massive invading trail.  The next day they just kept climbing over the sprinklings.  So now I was convinced I had been had, once again.  Then, a day or 2 later, there were no ants.  Not one.  Somehow the cinnamon had interrupted their scent of the trail they love to migrate on.

We've always had problems with ants, I think our house was built on an ant hill...:eek:

 

Last year I started using a product called Tarro. It's a trace of boric acid in a sweet solution. It took me several months to apply it to the ant trails and reapply it when it was gone, however this year all of the ant trails are gone.

I've also used white vinegar on the kitchen counter and they never came back...

 

I've read too that with the larger carpenter ants, that they always send out a 'scout', and then follow his trail, so if you can kill him and remove that trail, the others can't follow.

One small crack doesn't mean you are broken; it means that you were put to the test and didn't fall apart..

Ok so we solved the ant problem. Now is there any REAL snake repellants out there? 

Even perfect couple Adam & Eve couldn't come up with effective one! LOL :lol1:

Man was created as an intelligent creature with the desire to explore and understand :)
