Do not click links, open attachments or take action unless you know the contents are safe] Hi all – This is a professional-type question for personal reasons: I live in an almost 100-year-old triple decker, and we are having a carpenter ant issue. It happens every year (for the three years we’ve lived here) but this year has been especially bad. And has extended longer than it normally does. Does anyone have any tips on how to deal with this? My landlord is interested in IPM practices. He offered hesitantly to get an exterminator, but he wanted to explore options beforehand.
