g'day ant,

don't think it will kill a mammal as such and probably not tenough to
make them sick? with the ants they take it back to the nest and feed
the queen and the young and it is them ants that die, and when that
happens i guess the domino effect takes place and that is the end of
the nest.

you could mix the borax in honey as well, or make the sugar miz tacky
solluable, and also to keep the weather out and maybe pets away use a
1/2 gal icecream container over the bait tray. you only need use jam
jar lids or even bottle lids.
