Ray, try dusting frequently with food
grade diatomaceous earth. Completely organic and works well. This is not a
knock-down remedy; give it some time. www.FreshStartGrowers.com in Good luck, Farmer

[mailto:market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Ray M 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. Ray
