[Sca-cooks] fruit flies/now ants

[Carper, Rachel]

These all sound great. Any suggestions on how to get rid of the small
black ants? They seem to be too small for the grits methode and are
driving me nuts. And we have tried everything.

This message is from our Principality e-list.  I haven't tried it, but
it looks viable. Faerisa

"Go back to the store to the laundry
detergent section and purchase "20 Mule Team Borax", the real thing.
When you get home put a few tablespons on a paper plate or open dish,
add a teaspoon of sugar to attract them and they will eat and die.
That's how I keep fruit flies from my vintning area.  Refresh the plate
from

time to time and you'll be free of the pests, without any toxins." THL
