Thanks, good to know. My ants are very large and they love compost, bark mulch, even the orchid bark in pots. I sprinkled some diatomaceous earth in the compost bin and that does help. I stuck some Terro ant bait stakes into the orchid pots. The ants have to go into the trap where the bait is contained so I am not worried about it getting into the soil.
Minds are like parachutes; they work better when they are open.
