Removing Ants

Hi, Just signed up to this forum, i have a major problem with ants, there is over 30 nests all over the front and back lawns. We've always had an ant problem and generally the std white ant powder worked but now seems to be totally ineffective. 

Has any one any idea how i can solve this problem permanently.

Regards John.

    Hi John and welcome image

    Several regulars on the forum have found that Nematodes are the most effective way to deal with ants https://www.nematodesdirect.co.uk/9-no-ants-nematodes

    Good luck!

    Napalm.

    Seriously though, if anyone can come up with an answer, I'd like to know. The wretched little insects are undermining my front path.

    Westland Eraza Bait stations. Ants carry the stuff back to their nest and once the queen eats it and dies the whole colony dies out too. I mentioned this in a post several days back to someone else.
