they have Gallon spray bottles that are for ants and about any other crawly you can think of I think the last one I bought said something like Home Defence on it. Get it at wal mart or K mart. If you dont have them I would look around any hard ware or garden shop to find it

I always have problems with ants around this time of year. Wal-Mart sells ant traps you can put in the way of their trails and they carry the poison back to the mound to kill the eggs and queen. They take about a month to get completely rid of the ants but it's the cheapest and best way I've found. Hope this helps!

Yes, it do work. Not as expensive as an exterminator. They have it at Wal-Mart.

If you find the tiny holes the ants come from, fill them with salt, that will keep them from coming.

make sur no one is eating in the room ants follower food they send one to check it out and come back with the whole family and if you happen to get involved while they are seeking food they will attack you.
