Default red ants!!

The message
from Sacha contains these words:

I'm told Vim (is that made now?) or a similar powder does the same trick.


Vim and similar powders are pumice with a chlorine-releasing chemical,
and some detergent, so I very much doubt if any sensible ant would go
near it, sugar or no sugar.
