How do you apply it? How much should I use?
Bonny, hope you are able to get them under control, right now I would love to send you about a dozen squirrels that are at our apricot tree, gosh all I have heard all morning is them calling the gang to pick our apricots, which are not ready to be picked UGHHHHHHHHHH. They strip us every year of our fruit trees. This year seem to be so many more. They aren't leaving any for me to pick or the cyote or bob cat that I have to chase off either.

Getting back to the ant problem, I use EQUAL= ARTIFICIAL SWEETENER,
just put it lightly about and they carry it back to their nest. It works for me.
Hugs, Patti and Jack.

Out to chase the squirrels away, we need to get a Doberman :-)
