It's that season again. For the last couple of years we've had an ant problem. There was something we used last year that you apply around the whole perimeter of the house. It worked well for a time.. but I'm thinking there's something better.
Anybody have something they used before successfully for ants? Preferably if you remember a brand.

i like to set the hill on fire and mix up the pile while its burning. be very careful, its easy to blow yourself up when playing with gas.

They come in from outside, around my back door. There's what we call a "3 seasons room" we have.. It's kind of like a back porch that's closed in/attached to the house. They March right the hell in from outside, right through there and end up most concentrated a couple of feet from the door leading to the 3 seasons room.
Its not like I live in some filthy shit hole, just the exact opposite in fact. Im not some dumb fuck sitting around wondering how the ants carried away my ice cream/while leaving mess and garbage every where
We don't know how or exactly why but the ants are getting in. And it's been a problem for a lot of people in the area I've talked with. And they keep mentioning this product that goes along your perimeter.
Sometimes I wonder if there's like a big ass nest (I guess you'd call it) under my house by that area. They've spontaneously been really bad the last couple of years.
But yeah...
Good answers boys, keep the gems coming

We get em too. Best to keep spraying that perimeter stuff. And not just once like it says it needs its every 2 weeks to a month. Also take away their food supply and replace it with ant traps. Then leave them be when they are taking food from the ant trap back to their hill so their food supply gets poisoned.
I haven't seen the ants with the perimeter spraying, spray around every door window knack and cranny and it usually works well. All around outside of windows, doors, crawl spaces, anywhere a sneaky ass ant can fit.
When one shows up at your door beat the shit out of it so it goes back and tells the other ants not to mess with you and your house.

A mixture of borax and sugar ground into a paste with a little water works miracles. I'm not a huge fan of it, but if the ants are really a nuisance, spreading this paste across their usual routes will effectively wipe out their colonies. They bring the borax/sugar mixture back to the nest, feed it to their queen who subsequently dies (as do all the other ants who eat the borax/sugar mixture).

I've done this, but with boric acid and made it more of a syrup. It's works pretty well. That's all those ant traps from the store are.

Sometimes they swarm around heaters or electronics at my place. I just dump a bunch of alcohol or whatever I have on hand. Remember to leave the dead ants when you kill them. They learn, until next year.

First I'll take care of the ants at my home, then tomorrow...the world pinky!
Its not your typical minor ant problem, its something on another level. We've tried everything pretty much. Did the boric acid mixed into a sugary syrup thang and hit helped a bit but it didn't stop them.
So far all I've been able to do is keep em at bay. Spray the perimeter (inside and out) with some ant killing spray around where they get in at and they disappear for a little bit but then a couple days later we'll start seeing them gradually return.
The only thing that works is persistence. We have to spray like once or twice a week.

You need to find their nest and kill them there. Follow the trails from your house back to their nest. Or maybe they have a nest in your house. I had one in a houseplant container, the little shit ants love the moisture. Outside they love building a nest where it's temperature constant and moist. My hot tub had a huge one. Under a pile of 2x4s I had stacked up had a huge one.

I suppose sealing up the house would be unrealistic considering the size of the hole it takes for the ants to penetrate.

I use this do the outside perimeter of your place then set up 2 more like 5 feet out from each other and that should work.
If your place is clean they are probably looking for water.
As soon as it gets hot here i have to spray because they come for water.

I use ortho traps. Recently moved into a new apartment building and the fuckers are coming out of the walls. A few of those traps in the worst spots, and I barely see them anymore. You are in a totally different situation. I'm pretty sure they're in the walls in this old ass building, where as for you, they're outside coming in. Find the nest and soak it in gas. Then burn the fuckers. Spray the outside of the house with that ortho shit as well. Nuke em.

We have them crawling out of the walls in our house. Right now when we use the bathroom I see them on the ground. Today is my opportunity to deal with them, and will be using the Chinese chalk, which you can buy on eBay. We also have the ortho stuff and will be spraying the perimeter of the house, but I think we are placed directly over a giant ants nest

Chinese chalk? I think there's a nest under my house somewhere. I can get rid of them for a while but they always come back and have to go back at it.
They love my bathrooms. It's strange they won't travel/we won't see them at all in certain areas

borax or boric acid mixed with sugar and peanut butter is what I have always used and had great success with. I fill drinking straws with it and set those out as bait. as was mentioned above they take it back to the colony and feed everyone including the queen and they all die. if you make it to strong though, they will die before they get it back home. which will cause the queen to go into egg laying overdrive. you will know you made it too strong if you see a trail of dead ants.
