I'm afraid I may end up relating to you more than I already do. I just came in from my gh a few mins. ago, and they're crawling around more than yesterday. I'm going to make up the home-concoction that Judi mentioned and I'll be on the lookout to see if they move from one pot to another, as yours have. In the meantime, I hope your Merit treatment solves your problem. Last night I e-mailed my friend who told me about it in the past, and she still uses it....says it is working great. So, good luck!
Thanks for your reply,
Vicki

Vicki, if you do try the yiest method to try and control the ants, please keep us posted. Since I haven't tried it myself, I am really curious to see if it works well.

Hi Judi,
I'll be sure to post the results. I wanted to make a mixture and treat today, but I don't have any yeast and I didn't get a chance to go buy some at the groc. store. That's 1st on my list of things to do tomorrow, though.
