Maven Missive: Get Rid of Ants
Go Green: Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants. They eat it, take it “home”, can’t digest it, so it kills them. It may take a week or so, especially if it rains, but it works and you don’t have the worry about pets or small children being harmed!

For the big carpenter ants. They will send out scouts to check out the territory. It is important they are stopped at this point cause once they get in your walls, you can spend thousands. Anyway cinnamon really works. I put out the sticks, when I saw some coming at random, read up & found this info & it really worked wasn’t messy & kid & pet friendly.
