We were camping one year and my younger brother decided that he would simply "lead" the line of ants to another area, so he poured a trail of sugar/salt out to the woods so the ants would follow it and be gone.

Unfortunately, it became a welcome mat for every other critter out there to join us at camp, including more ants.

Some observations on Amdro. ....

So far the ants have not consistently eaten/taken the Amdro bait to feed back to their colonies......I think it may have to do with my set-up. I'm going to relocate a few traps to hopefully lure them in more. .....A few of my traps seemed to receive zero attention, whereas one that was located next to my toaster oven had gotten the most attention in the intial few days after placement.

So far, only about a 10-15% decrease in ant traffic. They're becoming my roommates!!!
