| We have had an invasion of both sugar ants and fire ants. They have moved into the walls of the house. We've had some issues with electrical sockets and that is when we found them. What can we use to get rid of them? |

marnie-
I'm not aware of a single product that will get both of them. They eat and are attracted to different things. The fire ants are coming in from outside where there is a mound. Look all around your foundation and check the weep holes if you have a slab. The sugar ants can easily be killed with orange oil but you need to get the queen for a total kill. Call Rid-All pest control. They will treat your place with organic products and not charge you an arm and a leg.
