I am having trouble with a bumper crop of ant hills this year. These are
not the normal ants, these make huge hills that can reach over 3 feet across
and over a foot tall. They are scattered around my farn, but now are they
are closing in on my house and garden. And they bite! I've tried "grits"
but that didn't help. I am reluctant to use strong pesticides because I get
my water from a shallow well and believe whatever I put on the ground today
comes out the faucet tomorrow. Any suggestions on how to get rid of the
ants?
BTW I didn't get to comment on the wasp issue, but I keep a pistol grip
sprayer loaded with kerosene in my shed...knocks them right down.
