Re: Ant farm
Hate coming on this thread Panther .. gives me the creeps, hope you are handling it.
Just been a discussion on the Jeremy Vine show with a Pest Controller .. very informative for all types of pests, including ants.
Like Bonnyboy said .. first easy recommendation was to pour boiling water on them. To stop them entering your house .. there are 'ant pens' available (is an insecticide) which you you draw along the edges of your door, windows frames etc., if they cross it they will die.
Also, ask for a water based ant killer and not to use stuff like talcum powder as it just blows around.
By the way Westender he did say that it is only the females who develop the wings twice a year to mate ... the males die off (LOL). They then lose their wings 'til next time.
He did say was those little red ants that bite.
Can't remember anything else... brrh ... hope they have gone Panther.
