Yes I have had huge ant problems. As you know an ant nest can easily cover your entire property. We live on a huge any nest and turning a shovel over usually involves millions of ants. Ants also feed on termite larvae so if they are crawling out of electrical sockets all over your house, have the house treated for termites. For most garden variety ants, The ant pro system works and you can find them on line at _www.kmantpro.com_ (http://www.kmantpro.com/) Seems expensive but it's easy to use, doesn't require much work on your part and will get the nest in about 3 weeks time. But you need a lot, read their information to guesstimate how many bait stations you need. You can also do it yourself cheaper and with a lot more work by using empty spice jars. Collect as many as you can, mix boric acid, sugar or honey and water, heat to make sure all is dissolved, cool and put a small amount in each spice jar, put the lid with holes back on and lay them on their sides all over your garden. This allows ants to crawl in the small holes but not most other bugs, lizards, birds, etc. To be effective in killing the nest make the solution with boric acid a bit weak and each ant can make 7-8 trips back to the nest with the 'food' before he dies. But if you have enough empty spice bottles maybe you just want to kill as many ants as you can and keep them coming to the toxic food station. Clean all of the jars out and refill with fresh mixture often, maybe even daily. Watch the ant traffic to see how often they need to be cleaned and filled. With the AntPro system you do it once every few months. Don't buy pharmacy grade boric acid in small jars for several dollars but purchase a large container (about quart size) of Roachproof. Read the ingredients, it's boric acid and is much cheaper allowing you to make a lot. There are many recipes on-line using boric acid water and sugar or honey. Using less acid takes longer but allows them to carry lots of food back to the nest. Good luck! Carolyn Craft
