I don't normally mind having ants in the garden, but
this year there seem to be 10 times more thn normal!
The garden is swarming with them.

I've tried putting down Nippon ant bait (the liquid
type from sqeezy tubes) but there's no sign yet, after
a week or so, of any fewer ants. A lot of the ants
(there are at least 5 nests) don't seem interested in
the Nippon at all.


You can buy a rather excellent spray - the can has a straw on it (like WD40)
so you can direct it deep into the nest. It foams up and fills the next. I
had 2 nests in the house and they seem to have gone (so far so good
anyway...)
