Good tips!
Just for fun - ants don't like to cross chalk. The kids will have fun drawing lines outside on the porch and watching the ants walk all the way around it. They will eventually cross, but it can be fun playing with it. The powdered chalk that comes in the retractable string line deals for "popping" lines is even more fun.

I like it when all my Ants are in the kitchen, usually means one heck of a dinner is being prepared. They know how to cook a meal!

My Neighbor told me this week if you have too many ants in your yard, to sprinkle corn meal around the mounds. Something about they can't digest it and it will kill off the ants. I haven't tried it, but she has and said it worked.
