AquaRose, do you have chickens? My hens just had a carpenter ant meal today, as they do whenever there are any to have. That's another thought for getting rid of them! :)
:D I sooo look forward to having chickens!

I have my first 10 chickens this year and they are great. It's very theraputic for me and the family.

We add our wood shavings, chicken droppings, DE, and sweet PDZ all mixed together into our garden and around our trees, we just don't do it while the trees or plants are producing. It hasn't had any efects on the earthworms it just getting the chickens to stop scattering it which really isn't a problem.
