How to rid property of fire ants?

One year I had pee ants invade my mailbox. I didn't want anything poison for the mailgirl to get into so I just put a can lid in the back of the box with a spoon of sugar in it covered with a little ivermectin. It takes a little longer but works. I also use it under the kitchen sink.

Chicken/ Guinness fowl.

My son used some fire ant granules on his ant hills but said it was like playing whack a mole. kills one hill and another pops up.. He ended up with some guy that sprays the yard with something, guaranteed against ants, tick, fleas, maybe scorpions, lol. It does the job. I'm not comfortable with a mass spray of toxic chemicals, but I don't have fire ants.....

Malathion mixed in sprayer they are gone. I messed around for year buying every thing under the sun nothing works like Malathion.

Spray a 2 foot high 3 foot around fire ant hill with it, they are dead and gone.

Great tip

Terro changed it's recipe

dosent work near as well

optiguard ant gel. I fought ants in the house for 3 years this stuff works! They carry it back to the nest and it will kill the whole nest.

"Terro changed it's recipe"

I thought so too, was battling a large colony, or several, and it was taking longer than usual to eliminate them, so I called Terro, they insisted it's the same formula as ever and to give it more time. I did and it worked, this was 2 years ago, I have since used the same bottle and it has worked every time...

It’s the blasted sugar ants that is causing the problem… thanks for all the help gang.
Going to go grab some terro and do some napalm bombing,,, lol

When I lived at the coast, ants would short out HVAC parts.

Permethrin. We spray it for cattle flies. Deadly on ants. 1.5 Oz per gallon, spray around outside of house, ants won't come in. I use it to knock out hills close to house and hvac unit
