At least you killed them, did you ever think of using Diotamecous Earth? It is a sharp substance (to them, not us) that we use in our grain to take care of bugs. We can't use chemicals because we are organci farmers, but this stuff kills them by cutting them open (literally)

Good job anyway;)

Never heard of it Peter. Yet they're cooked. For now at least.

Here's a funny story I forgot all about.

A few years back a neighbor down the way had a real sever problem with those big black harvester ants.
Well he being a heavy equipment operator. All the big toys in his yard D-10 etc.
He took a blow torch to the ant holes one at a time. ~~Not exactly the sharpest knife in the kitchen type guy~~

While he was pumping flame down one hole his wife was fifteen (or so) feet away messing around in the garden.
The flame flow out of a hole under her biting her smack in the butt!

Needless to say he took a 'forced' three day hunting vacation with his buddies all of a sudden.

Smoke them out!

Cool stuff there snuffy!
Ant Bill will need all the help he can get when the rest of the ants in the neighborhood follow a previously constructed pheromone trail to a fugus cashe hidden it his Niki's.

Snuffy, that 'Condiment Hill' design was wonderful!

And so, Bill, is this thread.
Any idea what your chili salsa might do for my struggling geraniums?
