If the ants have begun to nest in the pots, you may need to submerge the
pots in water for a few minutes to drive the ants up out of the pots and
onto the plant where Ray's mix can get at them.

Hello,

I grow my orchids inside the house and recently there are ants all
over them. I do not want to spray with chemicals - what is a natural
ant repellent I could use without causing damage to the plants.

Also, I noticed my Catallya produces some sort of sweet liquid that
the ants like. Why would the plant "want" ants crawling on it when it
is out of bloom?

Regards

Gal
