the cinnamon has always worked pretty quickly for me. I have seen them actually turn and head away from it

So glad I read this thread. I have been in battle mode with litlle black ants for 2 weeks. The round baits are not working, I have tried vinegar and clorox(read that on the net). Didn't work. I'm going to Wwally World now to pick up some terro baits. I saw them when I bought the others, but I didn't think they would work. Thanks alot.

Windex also works, as do cucumber peels (for the more organic approach).

I use whole cloves...just lay them where the ants walk and they go away. Less messy to pick up.

Dissolve some borax in a 2-litre pop bottle cap and leave out where the ants are. This always did the job in S. Florida.

I think I have mutant ants. They are back and don't mind the cinnamon at all.

I'm off to buy the Terro. If that doesn't work, I shall go down the list of other suggestions.

Thanks to everyone for their ideas.
