I read an article that said to put down or sprinkle uncooked grits on the
soil where they were crossing. They take the food back to their homes and
eat it. Once ingested, it puffs up and makes the ants explode. I know
you're probably laughing, but mine disappeared after sprinkling some around
my patio.

I always knew those nasty things (grits) had to be useful for somethingG.
Exploding ants, too funny!
