Ant Conference

A tiny sugar ant conference on the counter:

A method for getting rid of sugar ants:

1. Set out a small container with maple syrup.  I’ve put mine in the general location where I’d seen them before.
2. Wait a few days for the colony to get used to the maple syrup location.
3. Add ant poison to the maple syrup.  Leave on the counter a few days.
4. Clean up by wiping down the counter with ammonia to remove their pathway.

Hopefully by doing so a larger portion of their colony will die off.
