Will fire ants take it?

Hi, I don't know about boron, the element, but borax is definitely
deadly to ants of various persuasions that live around my area, from
sugar ants to leaf-miners with a few big ol' meanies in-between.

Apparently it tastes like sugar to them (though who figured that out I
dunno?)  They take it back to the nest where it wipes out the entire
colony.

I've never had to band it around the house or garden - as a matter of
fact I'd think rain would dissolve it? -  I just put it where they are
coming and going, with something overhead to keep the rain and dew off
if necessary - and they do the rest.

Take care,
Malcolm
