How Do You Get Rid Of Red Ants Destroying The Lawn?
Tobacco is actually a much more violent poison than any insect poison allowed on the market today. Get yourself a tin of chewing tobacco and put it, with some boiling water, in your blender. Add some garlic and some hot sauce. Puree it, strain it, and put it in a hose end sprayer when cool. Your lawn will stink like anything for about an hour but the smell will go away as far as human noses are concerned. In the meantime, you will have rid your lawn of all manner of pests and bugs, not just the red ants. If you can find the nest, use a stick to dig it out just a bit, very fast, and pour some boric acid on it. This will kill them, too, as it dissolves the exoskeleton of insects.
