Half concentrated pyrethrum down their hole kills most types, even bull ants.

Re: Please somebody remind me what use Ants have...
I'm fed up to my teeth, every morning I wake up come to have my breakfast on the table (which get scleaned after every meal time), the table has turned black with "Bloody Ants", on the floor full of ants, in the kitchen cupboards, even in the sink, i have tried everything, one lot die, another lot replace them, oh i have them in all different sizes, shapes & colours.
so what are they good for?

They hate peppermint oil, either pour it down the entrance to the nest and watch the buggers run, or keep some wiped on your doorstep (or anywhere else they get in).

Ants, huh, what are they good for.
Absolutely Nothing, say it again.
Mortein ant sand all around the house should keep th ebuggers out...unless they've setup camp inside your house.

We are in UK and are overrun with the little buggers in our 'summer'.
I bought a pest plug from Woolies 'JML PEST STOP' £19.99 and it took a couple of days for them to go but they then marched right under my windowsill to nextdoor ....
