[Ansteorra] Fw: Ants

[Sher M]

 I've been attacking ants, fleas and snakes in my yard with CedarCide spray
 and granules.  Only problem with it is that it is made from cedar trees.
 People who are allergic to cedars will have a major problem.  My dog 
trainer
 got some for her place and called me gloating when she nailed those hard
 black (carpenter?) ants that are almost impossible to squish and it DIED.
 She swears it reared up, quivered and fell over dead.  I'm not real sure
 about that part!  But I do know it works on fleas, ants, flies, mosquitoes,
 no see'ums and snakes hate it worse than I hate snakes.  Stupid (well maybe
 not so stupid) 'wolves' and other 2 dogs like cinnamon.  They'd probably 
try
 to eat it.
