sugar ants

[rachelgirl]

Has anyone had sugar ants come out of their bathroom sinks... I just moved in to my new home about 6 months ago, and evertime I go into my master bath - there they are...there are finally starting to slow down - but does anyone know where they come from?

Hell. They come from hell. We're living with my sister until our house is built, and her house is COMPLETELY infested with sugar ants. Literally, they're all in the walls. At least once/week, we have to spray where they've come in to the bathrooms, kitchen, or utility room. :

We had them bad in Hawaii. The best thing we found was Terro. All it is is sugar and boric acid. You can get it in these little trays or just buy a small bottle of it and stick it on cardboard. But they bring it back feed it to their queen and they all die. we also had them inour bathroom, could have had something to do with the sugar scrub I had We were able to pretty much be rid of them with the terro though.

I had good luck with Terro.

Also, my house inspector suggested cutting the bushes and other plants so that they do not touch the foundation or the house. That helped A LOT.
