Bay Area, CA home

We have a lot of ants in our home. We need some ant / pest control
services.

has any one used any such a service and recommend such a service?
What do such services charge?

Or any other ant control solutions ?

Your help would be highly appreciated..

Thanks,
Rita

 


What kind of ants?  Big black ones?  Little brown ones?  Red ones?


It's probably too late, but when you first start seeing ants (it's
seasonal
here in Michigan), use Terro (assuming that the People's Republic
of California will let you obtain it).  We can buy it in the grocery
store
here.

If you want a nontoxic solution, black pepper or cinnamon sprinkled over
the areas they are congregating and any entry points you see into your
house sends them away quickly.  Tabasco works for vertical surfaces.

 


Actually, I used to leave dishes in the sink daytime after breakfast,
while at work.  I tried ant baits, but they didn't help. The ants even
began climbing into the dishwasher onto dishes before I washed them.
Eventually I began putting the dishes in a refrigerator drawer, until
time to put them in the dishwasher.
