Subject: Ants in the Pants! Sun May 22, 2016 8:04 am
Recently I have noticed a few ANTS in the loft.
We have lots around so I was not surprised when I saw the first one or two. But yesterday when I cleaned out, I saw 3 of the little buggers.
We have some crystals that will kill ants, but I am very reluctant to put that kind of stuff down in a loft where pigeons are living.
Does anyone know how to get rid of them inside the loft?
Many thanks anticipation Phil (blueskylofts)

mmm, yes phil it might be a bit risky putting crystals down with the pigeons.....is there any spray you can buy and remove the birds while you do it...? or would one of those smoke bombs kill them off...?
maybe someone will be able to help with better info.

a permetherin based spray will do the job take the birds out though or diatoms (diatomaceous earth)under deep litter which they use for poultry i am sure their will be others on the market too
