Re: Ants

Greg:
They sure are to my lawn - apple trees & new hedge that I,m trying
to get going. Garden  ??????????? can't see them helping when they go
down around the stump & make a home. My 887 McDonald has that problem
at the present time.

Bill,  Some ants are sugar eaters, some eat fat.  If you use a 50%peanutbutter and 50% borax mix you will get either.  Just keep feeding until they all die.  You might need to cover the bait to keep it away from other critters.  I spread it on tinfoil and put it under a board.Roger Swalley, Botanical Genocidist, Whitman Co., Wash.
