March 30, 201016 yr EWWW, we have the big ants. they creep me out. I am considering that Terro. Go for it. It works great.
March 30, 201016 yr We had them 2 years ago in a front window sill and on our back deck. We used stuff called Terro. It is clear and in a small bottle. You put a couple of drops on a inch square of cardboard and they love it and walk right through it. They then take it back on them to where the nest is, so to speak. This kills off the ones you cannot see. It worked wonderful. We got it at Southern States. Good luck. I can also vouch that Ant Terro works. I had a problem with ants before and this worked everytime. It takes a couple of days, and I think you would be happy with the results.

March 31, 201016 yr We couldn't get anything to work including the Terro you pour on the cardboard. At Lowe's they have clear plastic traps with Terro in it. They get in and can't get out. It brings them out of the woodwork too! I'm telling you it has been awesome. Used it several times.

March 31, 201016 yr Question: Is this product safe for pets? I sometimes have issues with ants on my front porch, and ants in my back yard. But I don't want to use anything that could harm my LuckyDog.
March 31, 201016 yr Question: Is this product safe for pets? I sometimes have issues with ants on my front porch, and ants in my back yard. But I don't want to use anything that could harm my LuckyDog. Per website: TERRO® Liquid Ant Bait is a sweet food based product similar to pancake syrup combined with Borax. Borax is a mineral that is mined in the desert in California and is a common active ingredient that is used in soap products such as 20 Mule Team Borax. The product kills ants but will not harm people or pets. If you spill some on your skin there will be no reaction at all. Simply wash with warm water. Pets occasionally find the Terro and eat it. Our advice when this happens is to do nothing at all. The product is not toxic enough to cause a problem and the pet will be just fine. The baits can be used outdoors and many times this will draw ants out of the structure and keep others from entering. Water will not get into the bait stations unless there the bait station is submerged in standing water.
