Surrender. Stuff smells terrible but works great on the large ant hills, especially fire ants. 1 can will treat up to 100 mounds. Only takes a teaspoon or tablespoon per mound but can't remember. Do not open or store in the house or garage lol. Most Co-OP's sell it that I know of.What do you put on anthills in the yard?
They have daily battles on my back deck. They buzz me if I get too close and crap on me if I look at them funny. . . I guess it's crap. . . looks like a little drop of water with dust in it. I suppose it could be spit, with sawdust in it, .While we’re on the subject of pesky insects, carpenter bees are the bane of my existence. My current strategy…stalk them, smack them with my baseball cap, and then when they’re stunned on the ground, squish em. Inefficient but satisfying.
Go on July 4th. At least it used to be that way. Not many people at all.Cost doesn't bother me at all, tourist town so I expect it.
From the time you arrive in the parking lot till you leave is a absolute cluster. That's what bothers me, I'm not a very patient person when it comes to Amusement Parks .

Honeybees are actually immune to fire ant venom (formic acid). A compound similar to it, oxalic acid (wood bleach) is used to treat mites on honeybees, kills the mites dead but has zero effect on the honeybees. (oxalic acid would be effective at killing people too, handle with care.)Is there any way to cause a war between honey bees and ants? Who would win?
I use this and it is awesome Gold Reserve BlendAnyone used THC/CBD for arthritis pain/inflammation? I see that there's a drug w/ this combination being used in the UK. I see meta studies show the combination effective at both the pain/inflammation and autoimmune (rheumatoid) levels.
Not looking to get high, but I need some major relief. I've refused steroids/methotrexate for 20 years since they tried to put me on that stuff. Have been able to manage without meds, but it's gotten bad. Like, knuckles the size of muscadines, and unable to sleep b/c of the pain.
WD-40. spray any susceptible wood and they won't touch it. If they start a hole just stick the red stick in the hole and fire away.While we’re on the subject of pesky insects, carpenter bees are the bane of my existence.

Buy some carpenter bee traps. I bought three of them and also bought some bait just to help convince them to go in the trap. Once you catch one, they'll buzz around in there and attract a bunch of other bees. I've caught more than I can count the last few years and it's made a huge difference. I've still got a couple spots on my house I can't get to that will need to be repaired from carpenter bees, but I would say I've only got 10% of the bees flying around that I used to have every year at this time. I actually need to go empty one of the traps because it's almost full...for the second time in the last month.While we’re on the subject of pesky insects, carpenter bees are the bane of my existence.
