We had luck with spreading dried whole bay leaves around where they came in. We haven't had them since. Good Luck -C

I think Ill have to try that then. I havnt seen any ants yet but I know they come in, the little bugers. Thanks for the info. A plus is that itll smell nice for a bit after I crumble the leaves up, LOL.
