Default Ants!!!

The ants are all over the ground because the sap and the flower petals are falling off daily. Will they eventually find their way to my fruit? How can I avoid this?

Default Re: Ants!!!

I like the "Ant Pro Ant Trap". The liquid bait usually sold with it contains non-synthetic boric acid. Its a very effective and has no health risks to humans or pets (ok, you wouldn't want to spill it in a fish pond or aquarium).
