    Black ants. UGH! In the bathroom of all places. Last year had a small spider who lived in the tiny space in the baseboard where the ants get in and he took care of the problem. Don't know where he is this year but he's sure missing out. Need to sprinkle some Seven dust around the foundation; always does the trick. This is an area where Archie cannot reach.

    Very uncomfortable when trying to "sit" in comfort.

    We get that too this time of year. It's worse after it rains. Saw a few on the kitchen counter last night. We use Amdro.

    Ours reappeared late in winter. In the kitchen. We don't like to put bait out for them there, because of the critters and ourselves. Then, a week or so ago, gone. Just no ants. It's warmer outside, maybe they went out.

    It's been pretty wet around here and that's when we see them. Just picked up some Seven dust; that should do the trick.

    We had an infestation of ants several years ago. I tried bait traps and powders. Nothing worked.

    This got rid of them. You have to let them live and carry the liquid back to the nest and it will wipe them all out.
