Started with a few scouts then trails then saw them in the master bath it was the last straw. The exterminator was already here in June and didn't feel like paying again.
Based on a recommendation I tried this stuff:http://www.homedepot.com/p/AMDRO-24-oz-Ant-Block-Home-Perimeter-Ant-Bait-100099216/100598633
This was 4 weeks ago. Literally 48 hours after I put it out, there no ants anywhere to be found, they were alllll gone within 2 days, 2 days! Also I haven't seen so much as 1 ant in the last 4 weeks. They've vanished completely.
They have this in store at Home Depot it's around $12. Make sure you get the crystals not the spray. Just sprinkle them around the outside of your house (1ft perimeter), I used it generously but probably didn't need this much.
We have little ones so we didn't let them play outside for about 2 weeks while the crystals were there - then I went around and swept / shop vac'd all of it up.
This is definitely my new go-to, I've tried so many things and none have completely removed all traces of ants from every room in the house so quickly. I suppose at some point they will find their way back in, but good to know I'm only $12 away from making them extinct again.
