Leslie,

Thank you for the information.  I've been using a few different methods to
stop the ants, and their numbers have decreased dramatically.  Since I live
in Houston, we get all kinds of bugs that love to mess with our geckos.  I
even get the occasional Hemidactylus hatchling in the gecko room.
