Re: chemical vs. homemade insect repellants...

We have done a lot to decrease the attractiveness of our home to pests (de-humidifier, replaced mulch with river rock, boric acid powder in inconspicuous places) and last summer had no trouble. We decided this would be the best for us since I didn't want to have to be messing around with making bug stew every week. Within 2 days, no ants antwhere in or around the outside of the house at all. We had them come and spray on a Fri, when we were going to be out of town for the weekend. This treatment actually takes care of virtually all bugs. We try to go natural when we can, (I hand pull weeds, etc) but this was something I wanted taken care of NOW.

Actually it's not, but unfortunately the same angle. I have the PDF of the story with several pictures but none of them show that juncture more clearly.

I still think it is connected. If not, then the tunnel on the far left goes much, much further than any other tunnel without having a chamber. Not much logic in that, even for an ant.
