Hi,
My OH has just put ant killer down in our bathroom, we had a big any problem last year in our house and this year we've been trying to get on top of it. We have a cat and a 14 month old DD. I bought the ant killer last year but after my mum told me it was posion I refused to use it because obviously with a baby and a cat in the house I'm not prepared to put them at risk. I've been using boiling water and talcum powder as soon as I found a nest and that was working perfectly. Went out for a fag about 30 mins ago and saw loads of ants crawling out of a gap in our house
so I called OH to help and then he went into the bathroom and found TWO ants. I've been reading a lot about ants and these are obviously the scout ants. He started ranting and raving and I said I'd deal with it, and went to get the bleach and some hot water to wipe down the walls and get rid of the scent before putting more talcum powder down (ants hate talcum powder). Come into the bathroom to see him with the ant killer in his hand telling me that he's 'sorted it' so I go absolutely mad at him because he's just put poison in our bathroom! My daughter can open doors (she's tall) so I can't even shut the door to keep her out. AIBU? What do I do with the ant killer? Can I hoover it up? Any advice appreciated!!
