Now that summer has come, ants are coming out and they're very annoying. When I lifted my cucumber plants up earlier, there were so many ants. There were also many winged ants. I am sure there's a nest in the soil because every time I dig up the soil in that area, ants come swarming out of the hole. Is there any solution to kill off or at least control them? I tried making a liquid solution with four parts sugar, one part Borax, and some water, but the ants haven't even touched it since I placed it in the garden bed. The pictures don't really show the ants that well but they're definitely there.
