I knew nothing of this riddex product when we owned a house which was
on what was described as a floating slab. we did however have two
problems . one was carpenter ants and the others was a smaller but
real pain in the tail ants. . used all the little ant traps and to
no avail so I hired a contractor / pest control. I was told he put on
some sort of three way mask and sprayed what looked like a powder
throught the ground floor. . He found the little ants home right
away. keep in mind this place was on a floating slab. so he saw a
trail in his powder which led him to a big ant hil under the bath tub
where it was all clay/ earth. there was a access panel in the back
bedroom and he attached two lengths of pipe to his equipment and poof.
the treatment was done. the carpenter ants. well it appeared I created
that problem bringing home firewood from another place so that section
of the house was sprayed and the wood removed to the back part of the
property and stored under plastic. total bill was exactly
$250 and worth every penny. oh and as per a suggestion from this man
the following spring we planted spearmint around the house which he
said after a couple of mowings would help keep pesty ants away. and it
did. Lee
