We have had sugar ants in our house ever since we have moved in.
They are not destructive just annoying!
They like any food, especially the sweet stuff, hence the name.
We start to see them when the weather warms up.
Having a 4-year old I knew sooner or later where I would find them, HIS ROOM.
Little Man thinks they are his "buddies"
Well I think they are gross, if they did not crawl on you that would be one thing!
Yes we have a pest control company, a very good one at that (Lind Pest Control) but they are very hard to control. Once we get rid of them for the season they normally do not rear their ugly heads much more. It is just getting rid of them once they find "food".
In Little Man's room they found the spot where sometime ago he decided to smash an apple against his wall, cleaned it up? Well not good enough for those suckers!
I have Lysol'd, I have Clorox'd, I even emptied the whole room out and vacuumed, but the one spec I miss if their food for a week!
I wish Sugar Ants (aka Odorous House Ants) against NO ONE!!

ReplyWish I could encourage you, too...regarding the ants, that is. We dealt with them, too, and getting rid of them wasn't easy. But the Bug Man's spraying did eventually seem to do the trick.
Hope they all die SOON!!!!
