Go to the drug store and pick up a bottle of boric acid. Mix it in boiling water with as much sugar as you can dissolve to create a thick syrup. Spread this syrup around where ANY ants are and let it sit for a few days. The ants take it back to their nests and in a short time they are all dead. This does not smell and is basically non-poisonous but I would not let any pets lick it up as it could cause some discomfort. This works on any type of ants.
Anyone have an exact recipe that has worked for them? How much water, how much boric acid, how much sugar, etc?
