    Have a jon boat with a serious ant problem,I let the boat sit to long I guess and ants have taken up residence in the boat.They even got into the motor and clogged the jets in the carb.Thinking about putting it in the garage and bug bombing.Baits and sprays don’t seem to take care of them.Any suggestions ?(Besides using the boat more,I know I need to do that)

    squish them!
    my sister in law had ants really bad she had me spray
    TEMPO its a concentrated liquid that you mix up
    worked GREAT. safe for pets can be used indoors to
    kills ants spiders crickets sow bugs and tent worms in trees
    you can get it on line. she got it from a local ag. spraying co.
    good luck

    Sounds like I would put it in a shed and FOGGGGGGGG it. Then have the motor gone thru

    I heard or read some where that if you sprinkle “cornmeal” down that the ants will take to their nest and it kills the nest. Never tried it, haven’t had the problem, but you could check it out. Safe for every one else. Just passing on my little tid-bits of important information.
