Re: Ants and Boric Acid

Where can I find Boric acid?
we are under siege by an invading army here in Napa. Fought off the first assault with just soapy water but they are massing again,and they may win this time.
Thanks,

Boric acid works. Here's a recipe.

One cup warm water
Two tablespoons sugar
One teaspoon boric acid (from drug store or buy Roachpruf at hardware place)

Shake together in lidded jar and put into soda bottle caps near an ant trail.
They take the stuff home and feed it to the nest. It's also a good idea to
caulk where they are coming into the house.

Cheers,
