    First see if you can figure out where they are coming from. Then place a lid of something such as pasta sauce, filled with cornmeal. They will come out of everywhere to eat it. It will be their last meal and hopefully they will take some for the queen to eat. Good luck I know how that feels. It's horride.

  • Have you tried cornmeal? Many people says it works well. I am a big fan of vinegar.

    Ants follow their scent trail to go everywhere so I scrub all areas that ants are seen with pure vinegar. They hate vinegar. I got rid of the tiny brown ants, and black ants from my kitchen this way. They often get into our homes on flowers, fruit or vegetables. Try to find out where they are coming from and put some of those little round ant traps down so they will take the contents home to their families. There are more lethal kinds of ant poisons in plant distribution centres.

    Wash the sill in vinegar water, and then put salt on the clean area. No problems. I do mine monthly. This works excellant for us. J
