How does one kill crazy ants in a do-it-yourself way? We've put down Boric Acid and flea spray, both of which kill them. But, they keep coming back by the thousands. Any ideas?
Yeah, I know, that’s why I mixed them. I also made sure I was NOT downwind and quickly moved away.
You pour the ammonia in first, since that doesn’t elicit as hostile a reaction from yellowjackets as pouring in the bleach first.
Go to www.bugspray.com. They have everything. Their bait stations work great!
Put peanut butter in a rat trap and fasten the rat trap down so it can’t jump when tripped. See if that works. If not, get a regular, small leg trap (like you use to catch fox)...a small one and use that. It may be something bigger than a rat. Now that, I could catch.
Find the nest/colony. Do what needs to be done.
Chlordane? DDT?
