I live in the Ant Capital of the mid-Atlantic States. Others may also
claim the honor. They make their nests in my potted plants, winter and
summer, greenhouse and outdoors. They have a particular affinity to
orchid media. Is their presence harmful to the plants or just an
annoyance to me? I do have eradication methods of my own on an
individual pot basis but does anyone have a general method of
eliminating them from the whole area and collection? They are
particularly annoying when you need to repot something they have a
residence in. B. Gerrard
