Tom, I'm glad you're making some headway with the ants.  I used the bait
suggested earlier and I think it may be working on the ants in my tree.

I continue to try to deal with ants. With rains in the the last 30 days
being heavier than any time since the 1940s, a few carpenter ants show up
inside. On Thursday, I was told that cucumber slices discourage ants. I
taped slices near both columns of medium sized black ants climbing up the
exterior of our house, and one column has disappeared. The other column
seems less populated.
