Has anyone had the experience of ants in their orchids? I grow all mine outdoors, under shade cloth, all year here in Tampa Bay, and I have lots of small ants traveling though my orchids. I've checked for pests and can see none. I assume they are after the flowers, as I have quite a few in bloom, and to nest among the pot. What should I do? I am not sure what can flush them out and get rid of them. Water hasn't worked, and soapy water has not been very effective. Any suggestions? Thanks!
