Fire Ants SUGGESTIONS

Boric acid
Schultz-Instant (chrysanthemums and is not toxic to birds)
Vaseline painted thick in a 4" wide ring directly under the nestbox
I have noted in reading DE is useless for red ants
Seven dust in the coop as well as under bedding in nest boxes works well

boric acid (15% by volume) in peanut butter placed in bottle lids where ants have trails. Boric acid works in similar fashion, killing slowly after distribution among colony members (it also kills cockroaches when mixed with cornmeal and sugar).


anyone else have suggestions?

I will give a second for the borax and peanut butter. I bought a box of the team mule laundry stuff, mixed it 50/50 with peanut butter. Took a bit to get them all but that's the way it's intended due to the fact they will take it back to the colony and kill the rest.

Keep away from pets and littles though. It Is Poison!!
