Kethy,
Pros identify the species of ant then choose an appropriate bait station.
This keeps the poison bait out of the environment.

Hi Guys!
Along the same lines, we have ants. Not an army of them, just a small
but steady flow. We cannot find a commercial product that purports to
be effective against ants and yet won't harm the plants/soil.
What do you all use?
Thanks!
