RE: Garden Update - June 2019 ~ About cute birds, compost cats and exploding cabbage
I agree. If you have ladybugs, they will probably take care of the job.
We don't have so many over here, so I ordered some ladybug larvae online to solve the problem.
But there's a huge ant colony living in my greenhouse, and they protect the aphids against the larvae, so the ones I ordered will be extinct before they can get to work.
I have tried everything I could find to get rid of the ants, but nothing seems to work. A very strong neem oil spray worked... for a day. The day after, they were running around again. They're literally everywhere.. They drive me crazy
Ants can be troublesome. The flying reproductives are appearing inside my home now
Ouch.. inside your home? I don't like them in the garden, but I would hate it if they would be inside
I like native ants but I feel like they get weeded out by the naturalized and more pugnacious pavement ants.
