I'm not sure why but I seem to be having a slight ant problem. Will take pics today but just wanted to know why they love my plumerias.
They seem to be common ants (not big ants or red ants but just common regular ants)They only go to where the stem is connected to the trunk. No where else. They sit there for a few minutes then walk down the trunk then I loose them in the soil, then they pop out on top ridge of the pot and scurry off. I tried to follow one but I lost it as it went under my porch in a crack. I know I do have an ant problem under my porch as they are always pushing away sand from a brick that was broken off a couple of years ago. I've estimate that each plant has about 6-10 ants on them exactly where the steam of the leaf meets the trunk.
I'm just curious if they can harm my plumerias, why are they there and what can I use to get rid of them with out poisoning my plumerias.
BTW: I read chalk keep ants from walking over it as it can leave its signature cent behind it. That sorta worked but once it rained, all that chalk down the drin
Thanks for the advice
