The ant killer with borax is Terro II ant killer. Basically all it is
made of is Karo corn syrup, and a small amount of Borax. It's great for
sweet-eating ants (I've had so many ants in my house!)
I use it all the time. It's the only thing I feel is safe for use
around my pets, since I can hide it in a corner, and they won't get to
it.
I'm not sure how it'd work on carpenter ants.
