HI; I hope this is a good site to post this question. Please advise if there is a better place.
My partner and I have noticed what looks like carpenter ants boring out a non-load bearing beam in our barn overhang. This beam has a crack in it and is close enough to damp soil to be attractive I guess. We have just moved to this farm recently.
Anyways, we tried Raid and the ants did not even blink. A pest control company wants big bucks to come out with no guarantee this will be a permanent fix.
We need a natural product, old farmers lore type remedy for this problem.
If you can be of help please advise.
Thanks
Keith
