Does anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of ants? I have a problem... somehow, ants have found their way into my bathroom, and don't want to leave! Any suggestions for getting rid of them? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey there Major, I know it will work, but if there are young children about poisoning could be a concern so one needs to be a bit judicious in spreading the stuff about.
Actually, that's not a concern. It's just me living by myself in my apartment, so young children are not a consideration, but thanks for the info, and the concern! I actually got myself some ant traps, and some "ant" Raid spray, so we'll see how that works! For some reason, the ants are never a problem in the winter, only seems to be an issue as the temperature warms up outside.Hey there Major, I know it will work, but if there are young children about poisoning could be a concern so one needs to be a bit judicious in spreading the stuff about.
Thanks so much! I'll definitely give it a try! Raid helped some, got rid of the majority, and ant traps help too, but there are still a few stubborn ones who won't leave. So nice to hear about a solution you can make yourself!Hi,
Ant like moist place. You make mixture of white vinegar and water 50-50. Repeat throughout the day to maintain the efficacy. Ants hate the smell of vinegar, and it removes the scent trails that they use to get around.
Good Luck!

They tend to swarm in warmer weather. We use this http://www.pestproducts.com/advance.htm on the nests we find outside.Yes, warm weather brings them out. We have 2 Siamese cats (indo0r dwellers). Several nests of these little brown ants that like cat food more than the cats do. We put their food in a bowl that is surrounded by a water moat to stop the ants. But the duck fat laced with borax based ant killer just culls the little pests. But with winter comes respite from the invading armies.
