I prefer not to mow the lawn too short but want to try and get the ants to live somewhere else like in the flower borders. Also I dont want to put down ant powder. any ideas? ff Some people say that using a powder like Vim or Ajax sprinkled over the area will work. Now I'm wondering if such things are still made! I don't really want to spread chemicals around the place. I'd rather live with them! I was hoping somebody knew of a natural deterrent or something that the little loves hate so much they pack their bags and migrate next door Nowadays Vim seems to be a software product and Ajax is the Amsterdam football team. What about Jif or Cif or whatever it's called nowadays? In powder form? Not that I know of. It depends if it's the grittiness or the chemicals in the stuff that do the trick. We used Jif to remove green mould/algae from the wood work on our boat, for years until I realised that it was just the bleach in the stuff that was doing the trick. |
