Betsy,
In our winter condo, here in Florida, we've had a kitchen ant problem for
several years, on and off. We
have used ant bait traps, but didn't like having toxic
chemicals around. We got advice to use 20 Mule Team
borax ( a powder), and haven't seen an ant since. I don't know if this non
toxic bait/killer would work for you, but it might be worth a try.
Have you thought about 'painting' your wood with tabasco sauce? That might
deter the woodpeckers.
Good Luck, gail
