Thanks for the tip. Do they get back to the nest with this stuff?

I've used the same Boric acid/sugar combo as Bill. I learned it from my
grandmother. Works very well. Yes, the ants haul it back to their nest to
feed the colony, they can't tell the difference between Boric acid and
sugar. The Boric acid kills them.
