Subject: RE: Large black Ants in the house in the middle of winter


Spraying them made our situation worse.....you can't spray to kill the nest. I sprayed inside and out several times, but couldn't stop them. Finally starting using bait stations, and in a week they were eradicated. Bait stations are your best answer, but slower to get results...... My land grant college suggested I send them a few samples for positive ID, as some baits work better with different species of ants....... I never figured out where they were housed.....

I did remove all plants that touched the house, and continued to spray about a 10 foot strip around the exterior of the house, but no more spraying for ants inside..... Just what worked for me.
