I popped off the overlapping lid and found hundreds of dead ones in there, although none appeard to have made it into the container itself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329909656880549000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3395415222482574650.post-25053985492507623462007-08-14T08:31:00.000-05:002007-08-14T08:31:00.000-05:00legbamel, we tried ant traps.

When I asked how effective they had been, one of my daughters executed a Germano-American equivalent of a Bronx cheer, and said, "nothing."<BR/><BR/>Our ants acted as if they had received intelligence that the ant trap was, in fact, a trap, and avoided it.Brian H.

We had been using the vinegar method and, indeed, the tiny demons simply hid until we went to bed. The next morning they would be back in full strength.<BR/><BR/>Finally, I caved in and bought an ant trap. They swarmed the thing, and now we're down to one limping trickle that are still fighting to get in there. I feel bad for the little buggers, but they shouldn't have invaded my house. How would they feel if I crawled around their kitchen sink?!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329909656880549000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3395415222482574650.post-78389269544427375092007-08-14T02:38:00.000-05:002007-08-14T02:38:00.000-05:00Lol, funny stuff!Glad you used natural ingredients...Lol, funny stuff!<BR/><BR/>Glad you used natural ingredients and not toxics :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
