No fire ants in Oregon but we do have sugar ants.
We use equal parts borax, powdered sugar and
yeast. Non-toxic to kids and pets. The yeast
goes back to the queen and kapow she blows up
and the ants start to disappear.

the science doesn't support it. It seems that ants don't eat, they
only drink moisture/liquids from the surface of their foods. Check

I used boric acid and egg yolk for the common German cockroach when I lived in
Southern California. They like egg yolk so much they don't run when the light
is first turned on.
I think whatever ants like but with boric acid not borax would do the trick.
I use a heaping teaspoon of cinammon
don't seem to die from it. Could you please give further information of
this method? My barn and home are under the same roof so every time I
bring home a load of hay, I get an invasion.
I use stevia to sweeten beverages and it has the side effect of lowering
blood pressure, but not as
They love egg yolk so they eat it. Sprinkling it only gets them to ingest what
they get when they clean their legs. Mix it in the yolk. When it dries out make
some more.

am doing that closely and would have to telephone. In the city, I assume
that a specimen jar for collections would be used. But yes, we do have to
fight a war with the fire ants, they will kill a human if you give them the
chance.

And that is grits ! Ha!
