Ants have entered my home

Give the ants a bath with Windex.

When I lived in an apartment and got ants, I always put out ant baits and invited them eat all the bait they wanted.

Solution: pour a big pile of sugar onto the floor in the middle of the room. As the ants arrive, start shoveling them into a little container.
Take the container for a ride. Relocate the ants to some very ant-friendly area - an area completely void of aardvarks.

aren't you the guy that loves killing Turkeys? :roll:

Worker and fighter ants ahave no reason to live without their queen. Picking up a bunch of ants and relocating them without the queen is sentencing them to a rather sad death.

Are you for real? These are ANTS. Ever gone hiking? Ever walked on a concrete sidewalk? You've probably stepped on (ie KILLED) more ants in your life up to this point than you ever will by setting out baits or spraying your house. Do you shed a tear each time you inadvertently step on an insect, or are you even aware you've done it?

If you're that bothered about "relocating" the poor little bastages (or heaven forbid, actually killing them), then BUCK UP AND LIVE WITH 'EM. As far as I can tell, they can sense your weakness/pity/affection towards them and are exploiting it for their own gain.

You're letting them benefit for your superior genetic advantages, such as your ability to buy a house and buy refined starches! Kill em!

UPDATE:

I only saw one (1) ant today on my kitchen benchtop counter. I think they are beginning to get the message. And no violence was needed.

We are mocking you because you claim that you are pro-ant when you built a house on top of their house.
