Ants in the Lawn

Buy some ant traps from DIY or Garden Centres and put them where you see the most ants. They do work.

I rather like Ants so suggest hiring a Green Woodpecker to sort them out. One visits my lawn on a regular basis and it makes me feel a little bit greener.. When you think of the wonderful life of the Ant colony , it seems a shame to destrot it., they will all depart in a mionth or two.

My problem with ants is that I am often kneeling down either weeding or cutting the edges of the lawn and the little darlings come and swarm all over me and BITE! We occasionally get a pair of green woodpeckers in the garden, I hope they get to work before I have to go out with my kneeler again (if it ever stops raining!)

i have to adnmit to using boiling water out of the kettle when i see them appearing fromt their little holes!!
