Ant problem

[Multivitamins]

I'm not sure if it would be a alternative if you have children but borax or diatomaceous earth work well for me.

Ahhh yes I started my day with if I was a little kid where would I hide mamas keys. After 30 mins the answer a flower pot

When Alora was 5 I hid all her fully wrapped christmas presents in the walk in closet that was in her room.... Like behind stuff. She found them and unwrapped every single one hid the wrapping paper under her bed... took 2 out that she wanted to play with and then hid the rest where I had them behind stuff. LIKE WHAT!!!! It was fun... really fun. lol

Hiding from them does not work... they find you. Those days of having 5 minutes to yourself poof gone! lol

Yes I always have a cheering crowd on the throne these days. I love have someone else can be there with me durning such a smelly time

Just to give an idea of what I’m dealing with

Oh sweet lord... Put a baby gate up and put down the liquid terra traps.

 

[salty dog]

I use terro,, I think it is fancy borax

 

[Beman]

That is not a problem... it is an invasion!

From the looks of it they live in that wall I follow where they were coming from. I guess watch ant videos has paid off?

 

[JoXie411]

I’m headed to Home Depot now to get ant killer. Going to spray inside and out and trap in every corner. I hate ants

 

[jamest0o0]

Dont spray, just leave the trap and let the ants go. You want them to go to it and take it back to their colony.

Don’t even spray like the outside of the house because that’s what I was going to do not inside

Hello I’m currently having an ant problem in the room I keep my chameleons. How do I kill these little devils b4 they find all my bugs and chameleons? I don’t believe in ant lives

I also use a mixture of alchohol and baby powder and line the legs of the table, the cords and anything else the @#$%ers can climb up, it stops them in their tracks and anything that decides to try and pass it dies. I love all my feeder bins with it too. Got this advice from AntsCanada.

Yes yes he does

 

[JoXie411]

Got these that stick to the wall not messy at all I put two next where I think they are coming in and next to the chameleons cages.

Terra liquid ant traps NEXT THREAD

Traps.
Not just bait?
I'll look for those.
I just moved my guys outside while I ant bait the inside cages .
I found a zillion tiny ants this morning eating a cricket.
Would isopropyl alcohol in a spray bottle work?
With no Chameleons around of course.
I don't want to actively use ant bait because I'd be worried about crickets eating the baits and the a cham eating the cricket....
I'm also spraying the room and the whole house.

They are bait. Those Terra's.

Do not put them inside the cage, but outside right next to the cage. They can smell that stuff from a good deal away, and they will come for it.

The Terra baits, help work to kill the colony. The spray will not do that, or anything much really. As long as the colony lives, they will keep coming back. Just keep the liquid baits, near the cage at all times. Crickets that are outside of the cage, might eat it but who cares they are outside. Ants that eat it may get inside, but it would take the cham eating alot of them to pose any real risk.

Diatomaceous earth worked wonders for keeping them out of my bug room. Put it in the cracks and crevices around the room and they can't cross the line. It's like death by a thousand cuts for them.
