Ants in my plants!
« on: July 12, 2008, 14:24 »
Well, in my grobag I think.

I just caught the little blighters hauling all of their bubba's into the top of my grobag by the edge of the tomato pots that are in there.

I have put a line of ant powder (OK, more of an avalanche) on the floor in front of the grobag as that was where they were coming from, but is there anything I can do to get the out of the bag (without poisening my toms??

Tesco do a similar thing to a tin bait called ant stop bait station.  Stops em within two or three days.  Don't know if they still got it in shop.  Its not tesco own brand.
