Ants...

So the past 2 months ive been in an apartment and been dealing with a pesky bit of very determined ants. My question now is my apartment has sprayed outside for the ants and such and afterwards they got into my silkworm bins. Are those silkworms now unable to be grown and eventually fed or since they are still very small will they be okay and not harm my chameleon? The ants just love silkworm chow....

I would think it's not okay to feed them to your chameleon. I had a similar situation with my cricket tank. I keep them in my basement and ants went straight for the food. someone told me you could put cinnamon around your feeders and the ants won't get to them.

My landlord has an eco friendly service that comes out. They didn't spray but put down a gel in the house. They had to come out twice but the ants are all gone.

thats really cool, Ive been spraying like crazy my whole apt with ecosmart but these ants are craft, they even came in through my electrical outlet! Maybe ill just grow them out anyways (only 20 of the original 500 survived the ant attack...) and ill just keep them separated from the new ones like ive already done and just watch these ones grow and morph haha So mad that ants literally wasted 50$ of mine and are still finding ways in. Thanks for the response man
