Re: Ants
Horrible things they are, ya can ring the council and they will use a powerful spray, helps them if you know where they coming from tho, they used to charge £7 for this but there are no guarantees.
I used to get em in my old house and tried loads of stuff, the gel was probably one of the better ones, them little house things that attract them don't seem to work, they just seemed to walk round it Hope ya get it sorted cos they are awful |
Re: Ants
Cheers for that Mick,,,,i dont mind them outside but in the kitchens a different kettle of fish....:thankya:

Re: Ants
There are 2 types-
1, sonic only - cheaper but need one in every room 2, sonic + the signal gets sent around your wiring ring main (the sort I described)- you need one per ring main |

Re: Ants
if you know where they are coming from , like holes in a wall or from under a skirting board a couple of 'puffs' of baby(talcum) powder around the area will discourage them , if they are coming in from outside draw lines with white blackboard chalk across their path (don't buy the stuff they sell in Chinese shops as "Ant chalk" it dangerous) think there are fine traces of lime in talc and chalk which burns their feet

Re: Ants
Oil of Citronella and formalin, equal proportions, paint it in the cracks and crevices with an artists brush, the mix will also get rid of other pests that lurk about like silver fish and such.
Whatever you do don't inhale to deeply it will clear your sinus's and blow the wax out of your ears. AND DON'T let the any dogs or cats sniff it, it can make them ill. Retlaw |
