It's so good to be free of ants
You're very welcome. Put it anywhere you think they're getting in. My gramma would even put a few drops around her electrical outlets in her old house, and made sure she refreshed it around windows and doors after any big rain. When I relocate my hummingbird feeders soon, I'll use it on the shepard's hooks. I'm tired of cleaning out feeders and finding a swarm of drowned ants. I wish it wasn't so expensive (my little bottle $20), or I'd spray my garden with it (cussing at fire ants)...

Keeping with thread....my old dog nearly took my fingers off when I offered him a "pizza bone"...
My baby goat cried loudly until I fed her cookies.
My baby chickens got their pictures posted on craigslist...
And my turtle was very mad at me for feeding her diced up cabbage instead of her favorite cucumber.
