Ants and insects

[Leisurely]

Please keep us informed. I haven't seen any ants since I sprayed orthene but they are likely to come in from the landscape. After I sprayed I put out Harris Roach Tablets which is boric acid in a pill form. It works on roaches and ants and is safe for children and pets. I needed to eliminate colonies of them so I had to get out the big guns in the beginning. The baits should keep them under control now. A Shepherd and his sheep is a good analogy. I have heard it said for a long time that ants farm insects for the honeydew that is secreted.
