- The house I am renting seems to have been occupied by hundreds of thousands
- (if not more) of pharro ants. We have had Sears treating the problem for
- the last 4 (or has it been 6) months. They put this bait in a straw like
- tube, and leave the tubes all over the house. The ants come and get
- the bait. They should then take the bait back to the queen who eats it and
- should die. Then the rest of the ants should eventually die, as they eat the
- bait also.
-
- We have found many dead ants, and certainly much fewer live ones, since
- Sears started this treatment.
-
- My questions is, why after 4-6 months, are we still doing this ? Does
- Sears know what they are doing ?? Does it really take this long to kill
- these creatures ? What's your experience ? We'ld like to know.
