Hi everyone

I'm having a problem with red ants in my lawn, in the past I've used some grub and ant insecticide but now all insecticisdes are banned from my area, so now I'm looking for another method to control or get rid of these little guys. Does anyone have any ideas I can use?

Thanks

A kettle of boiling water kills them off pretty quick. As an insecticide try a fairly strong concentartion of fairy liquid.

Ya that boiling water trick works well but I can't water the whole lawn with boiling water.
