Mix sugar, boric acid and water. Microwave it to get the sugar to
dissolve. Ants eat it/drink it, and take it back to the nest.

Boric acid and peanut butter. They take it back to the queen and it
kills her. There is no more effective way to do it. There's even
ways to do it with pets in the home. You can google or I can tell you
more. I had a serious problem with multiple colonies. The cat food
bowl was a blur with 1000's of them in it. It takes a few days but
once the queen is dead they die off pretty fast.

if you get the problem again, "mote" the cat food and water... in my case a
pyrex baking dish with the bowls in it and about a half inch of water in the
bottom, ants check in but cant check out and food stays safe until you get
it under control, Lee

We got ants in the kitchen two years ago. I traced their trail from just
outside the garage door, through the laundry room and into the kitchen.
Alas, I woke up and noticed them just before we were to leave for a slumber
party at a hotel.

Luckily I did have some old ant traps from when we lived in NY so I put
those down where I saw the ants.

Later, when I had the time, I sprayed. I had problems with them coming in
several times and had to keep changing the traps.

Last year as soon as I noticed an ant outside, I sprayed. I sprayed any
hills that I found and also any ants that I saw moving.

Angela and I did have to do this several times, but we never got a single
ant in the house.

I do think this was an ongoing problem because there was a large bag of
Diazinon in the garden shed when we moved in.

Ooh, thanks. We're always looking for plentiful baking soda
to adjust the pH of the hot tub. Might be worth the drive.

Is there anyone out there who fails to get just how bad that parallel
is? One pair is a raw material and a chemically altered end product.
The other pair is a raw material and an evaporated end product.

HFCS gets a bad rap because too much of it is used. Calorie for

HFCS gets a bad rap because there are studies that show that rats fed
the same number of calories of HFCS versus cane/beet sugar gain more fat.

HFCS gets a bad rap because it is "fake" and "chemical" and "industrial"
that gets shipped by the train car load.

HFCS gets a bad rap because it's clear and slimey, without actually
noticing that regular corn syrup is also.

Regular corn syrup gets a bad rap because some folks have no idea it's a
different product than HFCS.

Both regular corn syrup and HFCS get bad raps because they are sugar
that gets added to stuff and to low carbers added sugar is bad. Cane
sugar, beet sugar, date sugar, agave syrup, maple syrup, honey and a
list that goes on and on all fall in this category as well. It's the
same idea as seeing "sweetened with real fruit juice, no sugar added" as
complete nonsense and a form of lying to the gullible.

But cholera is organic, so it's OK.

I've ridiculed that Greenpeace call to ban chlorine every time
one of the greenpests has brought it up in my presence. Generally,
they have asserted that there is no chlorine in salt. They
think "chloride" is some other element entirely, it would seem.

Most of the time if you are going to use frozen orange juice concentrate,
you will add water and it will be pretty much the same thing. It may lose
some vitamins. I don't know. I don't really care. I don't use orange
juice.

I don't know exactly what HFCS is but I do know there is a link to it and
heart problems in diabetics.

I was told by one person that fructose in its natural state is balanced by
other sugars like sucrose and sorbitol. But that's about all I know.
 
i hope you don't either, where we live is very buggy because we literally
live in the middle of corn feilds... and this mote thing works perfectly,
just remember that the cats have to be able to reach the food without having
the bowl connect with the water holder. Lee

Sounds like she's basically a PE coach. Like the one who the school
board in my home town thought should replace the high school physics
teacher (who was a veteran of the Manhattan Project). Apparently they
didn't understand the difference between "physics" and "physical
education".

Fortunately that didn't pass the giggle test with the townsfolk and got
corrected right quick.
