Dennis brings up an interesting point (I've had problems with ants farming
mealies and scale.) that I learned from a pest control person. Ants farm
aphids and other insect-type creatures. I was having a terrible problem
with ants around and under the house and was told the ugly 20-foot laurel
hedge in my front yard (I had just moved in.) was a major hiding out place
for them. There were some 150 feet of hedge in fact so it was a major
undertaking given the bushes were 20-25 feet tall. It was worth all the
hard work!

I removed almost all the laurel hedges within the first year and have not
had problems since.
