Ant Problem

We are finding ants in the house in all different spots. What can we use to get rid of them? They are the small ants. I would like to try to fix the problem ourselve before we call someone. anyone have this problem?

Terro Traps. They work great, and will get rid of them all in a few days!

If you have pets and or children read the label on the SEVEN to make sure it's not toxic.

I also use the Terro traps with great success - in fact, I'm reminded that it's time to put out some fresh ones. The are a boric acid and sweetner of some sort in an enclosed plastic so it's relatively safe.
