I made Dave put the ant powder down when we had them - I couldn't bring myself to kill them!

RAID is good, spray it round the access areas and in time they will go away

We once had them in our old house. Used to come down in a morning and the pink carpet would be black!!!!!!! Used to hoover them all up and try and keep on top of it all day.

Eventually found the nest and got rid of them.

Fortunately where we live now they seem to be keeping outside - perhaps word got round!

Check out this site Angela:-

I used Fast Bait last year and it cleared the ants in 2 weeks ... not seen any this year either [:D]

What a nuisance! Just when you thought it was safe!

Hope you manage to get rid of them soon. Nothing worse than ants in the house (except for a mouse maybe?)
