The other day, I used an entire gallon of vinegar around my front door to try & attempt in getting the ants under control. They might as well have looked at me, laughed & said 'yeah, right'. Yesterday morning, I walked out the front door & they were back with a vengeance. Enough is enough, so I went to home depot & got a bag of bug b gone by Ortho ($5 for a 10 lb bag). It works on many other bugs too & is safe to use in your vegetable beds. I just went to take a peek; it's way too good to be true! NO ANTS! Glory hallelujah!
