1)I live near woods;
2)I forget to use repellents periodically.
In case of ant infestation in your home Borax is a valid solution. As for the repellents I recommend checking this link https://pestcontrolhacks.com/ants-house ... ugar-ants/ especially the part about home remedies and folk methods. Personally, I would suggest to carefully use kerosene, ammonia and birch tar. Hope that will help anyone.

Fire ants can't be eliminated entirely because it's not possible to treat all areas that are infested. Thus the goal of current integrated pest management programs is to suppress fire ants as much as possible with biological control methods.

As an entomologist I just gotta tell you this AIN'T gonna work.. To start with there isn't just ONE queen.... there are lots of them.. The deal is you have to feed the QUEENS posion..you do that by feeding them a bait and they take it back and feed it to the queens..
There is a neat USDA ARS laboratory in Gainesville, FL called Insects affecting man and animals... unless they changed the name. Go visit it if you ever go by Gville and meet some of my fellow students. (they probably have all retired by now) You might get a tour and find from the EXPERTS that grits belong in OUR stomaches not on the ground for the fire ants to eat. On that same thread gasoline belongs in the boat not on a fire ant nest.
