How To Deal With Unwanted Ants?

I've heard to just sprinkle Ajax (?) around the tires. Is this sufficient? Or are there any other ways to get rid of ants?
  • Terro ant killer.Extremely effective. Remember, it's ANT killer, not people and pets killer.
  • Ant killer powder outside, Sevin in the bays and Ant Motels inside. Worked mostly.
  • We've used Comet, and spray effectively. One campground we went to there were white circles of comet all around the campers. It was pretty funny. The Publix a half mile away had a whole self full of it.
  • I carry Diatomaceous Earth to put put down to make an effective barrier against ants.

    I have used it for years around the house and my dogs,also found that it is a great flea deterrent too.

    Effective,safe around humans and pets and is a natural product that wont contaminate the soil or the environment unlike Comet or pesticides.
  • Borax and powdered sugar mix in just a little water to make a thick liquid and leave it where you see them. They will take it home and kill the whole nest.
  • Didn't work for us in Mobile AL this past October. Bought Home Defense ant spray at Walmart..worked great on the ant trails through the Comet we used when we parked.
