Natural Safe Methods to combat "bachac"

[ckavsinba]

bachac bait works.....do not touch or let it get wet.
If u want something stronger check your Agri Shop

Use white chalk and make a circle around the nest area, then make a line infront of where the bachac walks....they wont cross it

No, sir, not any ol' white chalk will work.

Anything with Fipronil in it.

It comes in the bait form or as Regent or Garnet liquid. It's one of those chemicals they take back to their nest where it kills everything.

Bifenthrin (sold as SpeckOz) does the same and has a repellant effect as well.

I mix both and spray my yard. No insects of ANY sort for at least 2 months.

Like you still having issues. Saw this online.

I used the honey and boric acid already and it worked fine but that was for those tiny sugar ants (not sure what you call them). You may have to change your bait depending.

You should be able to get boric acid (white powder) in the pharmacy. On an unrelated note, boric acid powder with water does wonders for toe nail fungus.

Step 1

Add 9 parts cornmeal to 1 part insecticide like boric acid or borax. Bait insecticides must be slow-acting so that the ant finding the bait doesn't die before it carries the bait back to the nest. Add sufficient soybean oil to make the mixture into a paste.

Step 2

Place the cornmeal bait in a sealed container with punched entry holes. Place the containers out away from areas frequented by children and pets. It is poison if ingested and can also be toxic on repeated exposure.

Step 3

Clean your house and yard to make sure that the ants do not have any other source of food. Fix leaks in pipes and faucets to eliminate other sources of water.

Step 4

Check every few days to see if the ants are eating the bait. Different foods are acceptable to different types of ants, so if the cornmeal/soybean oil doesn't appeal to them, try something sweet , like honey, or something greasy, like peanut butter.

I doubt that go work-the leaves bachac cut they don't eat but take back to the nest, make a pile and let it pretty much rot- the fungus that grows on the 'rotting' leaves is their food source so doubt they will pick up anything they not familiar with. Sugar ants will eat anything they feel like including electrical items so will tend to pick up most bait set out.

For me I don't mind them and was a bit disappointed when they disappeared from the garden couple years ago.

you need to bait them properly, you must train to become a master baiter...
