I am having trouble with very small black ants. They don't seem to bite/sting but they invade my home in staggering numbers. I use Terro (a borax based poison) to kill them but they just keep coming back. The last time I put out some home made borax poison and the next day my floor was covered wth what looked like a million dead ants. It is possible to wipe them out for once and all? I have a large house and they are up on my 3rd floor evern. Should I put out poison all around the base of the house and just keep renewing it on a regular basis? When I found a long trail out side my home once I put out some poison made from borax and sugar and they seemed to like it initially but then ignored it. Also, any idea how much borax I should use? I want them to take the poison back to their next to kill the queen if they is even possible. Any advice greatly appreciated.
