Is it like a siren song for them?

I agree but when there's loads of them swarming up your legs every time you try to leave your home you kind of reach a breaking point

 

[lingus60]

Then it's permethrin time...

Is that like morphin time?

Question for those with gardens...

I have what feels like a plague of ants in mine and I want them gone but without using anything that could be harmful to my dog.
Any suggestions?

We used lavender

I hardly ever do as it is

Oh lavender. I like that too.

I have a little dog so really don't want to put anything heavy duty down so things like lavender and mint as deterrents are great

 

[AWonkyDonkey]

See? Tell all your friends about how I'm a great problem solver.

Trust me.. I'm a chemist... and I never watched breakin' bad.. honest!

You have to bleach the line they walk along 1st though

@RosewoodTulip 1800 page milestone.

Woohoo.

Well, I got fingered tonight, so I'll say that's the milestone celebration.

 

[AWonkyDonkey]

And I'm going to call it a night. Goodnight

 

[RosewoodTulip]

Good to know
Had a few stragglers in the house that have likely hitched a ride and I'm always careful to spray to remove the signals they might send to their friends

Some people have all the fun!


And some people talk about ants

Ooh, don't put bleach down. You'll damage the ground, there are bait boxes you can buy that has food in it, the ants eat it and carry it back to the colony and the colony is wiped out. It works, had ants and then I didn't.

As I know you’re all on the edge of your seats in anticipation.
BBQ was a success, sort of.

Did you know ants count their steps to the destinations. So they go on an adventure and know where they've gone by their step count. Scientists gave some stilts and they walked past their goal. Other had their legs shortened and didn't make it, whilst the lucky ones with being hatcheted got there.
