Ants VS Aunts

[Guest guest]

Hi Kim,

I'm familiar with buying Roach Tablets (boric acid in them) which the

roaches eat. I'll try the Boric acid for ants. What state are you in? FL

may have more ants. I have atleast 4 combinations of sizes/colors in the

house.

 

I have many many earth worms and don't want to harm them!!

 

Adios,

Roberta

AUNTS!!

 

I used Boric acid inside and outside the perimeter of my home to control

ants and had great success with it. I don't think its effectiveness is

limited to roaches. In fact, I hear roaches can survive a nuclear blast, so

if boric acid works on roaches, i imagine it will help control any other

type of bug!! Good luck!

Hi Keemosabe, " It took reading half the letter before I realized this isn't

a joke. Let's hope any poisons you might end up using are reserved for the

bugs, not your mom and dad's sisters ;^) "

 

Yes, that spelling mistake plus my personification of the ants did turn it

into a joke, a good one on me! but I am for real. Thanks for taking me

seriously

 

" I used 50:50 on my poison ivy. " Did Bronners kill the plants?

 

Actually I don't know where the many ant hills are. I have a small tropical

plant business. The ants are probably under my many plant pots.

 

I did get 2 items from another e-group that seemed like I could depend on

the ants finding and taking back to the nest. But for either idea I will

have to invent a dry place as we had a 100 year drought over last 3 years

and it is now 'catching up'! We're getting 3 to 6 inches many days!
