Help!! I have a baby ant infestation. They are tiny and everywhere biting me. I have a savannah monitor that roams so I cant use chemicals. Are there any other methods i can use to rid my home of these stupid ants. I hate the feeling of them crawling on me.

How to do

    you need to find their source of food and clean that up. then you have to “destroy” the trail that they leave when they walk.
    they leave a chemical trail that tells other ants where to go, if it’s disrupted, that will help. I’ve traced ants clear out of my house to the nest, somewhere under a flat rock just outside of my house. So, by “thinking” like the ant, I was able to get rid of them.

    You can use an ant eater instead of the monitor and there is a kind of wasp that is feared by ants because those wasps inject their eggs to devour the ants.

    Mix 2 parts honey or jam with 1 part borax, Place in jar lids near ant trails. Find their nest and destroy it by pouring boiling water down it.
