Dont ever spray outside walls ....the ant's belong outside spray all inside walls round scurting board this was given to me by the man that sprays Linda PS if you spray outside you will drive them in make sure there is no sweet stuff eg...sugar choc thats what they are after

I got some from B and Q sprayed it round the pipes out side that comes in to the kitchen and it keeps them at bay till rain washes it away then spray it again

Thank you all, I don't have pets but do have kids so i will be careful when buying gel/powder. Tricia

Tea bag Paraffin is not good for pets, kid's or smokers!! Marion

As Janice says, if you can find where they are getting into the living room? put some Ant killing powder down. But you need to check your outside walls for any gaps in the brickwork by your living room, I found the best thing to use outside was Paraffin. Good Luck.

you get a gel,put it on a smooth surface, the ant take it back to the queen. there is also powder, but be carefull with children and pet's. Marion

Thankyou, Janice and Zoe.

get an 'ant bait' which is like a little metal tin with 'food' inside they collect dinner, take it back to their nest and it poisons the nest as well as teh ants - curing the problem at the root. theyre about 4 quid and you have to leave it down for a week in order to make sure you get them all but they're brilliant

You'll need to watch them to find out where they are getting into the house then put ant powder down. Janice

They are in my living room, granted it's not an army, just half a dozen or so, but everytime i kill them, more are coming in and i don't know how they are getting in or where they are coming from, what do i do? Tricia
