Tried and tested :- If you want to get rid of ants take the leaf from the
Rhubarb and boil it in an old saucepan, remove the remains of the leaf and
discard, pour the liquid on the ants nest. this is a fast and sure way to
get rid of said ants.

Also cleans saucepan nice and bright.

Ps, forgot to say, It's the hot water that they dont like....lol.

In the morning empty the tins and replace them on the lawn. If you
have fish in a pond, or hens, give the ant larvae to them or put them
on the bird table.

..or eat them yourself. Supposed to taste like prawns.

If you remove the cans and it's a sunny day the ants will come and move
them under shelter again.

Thanks for all the ideas. I think I'll try the water and tins and also the
boiling water idea as well ( I don't have any rhubarb leaves).
