I have found an ant nest next to the house foundation. Will ant traps or
chemicals work better, or do I have to dig deep to remove the whole nest (
which I prefer not to do) ? I appreciate any good suggestions.

I swear by diazinon granules. Not powder, granules. A very small qty. of
the stuff kills large colonies of ants very quickly.
