OT: Ants
Got a couple of ants nests in my lawn. They keep pushing up the soil. Tried last year to get rid of them with boiling water and fairy liquid. Worked
for a little while but they are back again this year.
Whats the best way of getting rid of them? Can i use that powder stuff? Will that kill the grass?

Best stuff I've used comes as a small tube of sticky liquid. The workers take it down and feed it to the queen not knowing it's a delayed
action poison. Easy enough to get.

We used the stuff like glue that Ian used, it takes 10 days to work but it did the job. I also read that you can put down Semolina which the workers
take back to the queen and it causes her to burst as she is unable to digest it.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
