Permethrin poultry dusting powder. Natural, safe for chickens, and deadly for ants.

Will ants be a problem? We have scars of them near where we are building our run, and they are in the house and everywhere.

Ants have been known to kill newly hatched chicks. I've seen them kill hatchlings in wild bird nests and the adults will abandon them.

So, yes, ants can be a problem. Best to treat your spaces with Sevin as you are building.
