Donna_0 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 AAArgh does anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of these pesky biting ants?! I ve just been out to strip the eglu for weekly cleaning and found an army of nasty red ants trooping along the woodchips! I put some boiling water on them and then diatom powder (and still some were moving around grrrr). Can anyone suggest something to put down in the chippings that won't hurt my girlies please? I don't want an infestation, and these critters bothering Barbara and Margot. -Barbara 28/07/08 -Margot 04/08/08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angels4 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Would DE work in the same way it does for fleas, ticks, and lice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
