Default Ant hills

Have you tried phoning or visiting a local garden center, telling them
you problem and seeking their advise? We don't know where you
live, so we have to guess a bit about what may be legal to purchase
and use in your area. We also don't know if you have children or
pets, which can be a concern if they may come in contact with the
chemical that you use.

I still use Diazinon on ant hills, but I stockpiled quite a bit of the
chemical before it was outlawed for sale in the U.S. a few years ago.
Still, there are certainly many suitable replacement products on the
market. I just sprinkle a generous amount around the ant hill. Dursban
should be almost as good if it is still sold.

Good luck,
Gideon

For the first time,I have ant hills in my yard, 3 within 10 feet of my
front door**. Is this something I don't want? I have a feeling that
I don't.

If I don't want them, is there an effective, perhaps easy way to get
rid of them?

** (or maybe one big hill with three entrances)

Thanks a lot.
