[Vision2020] Ants

[Sue Hovey]

There are a few on this site for whom counting ants might be more productive than posting.  I think I am one of those.

If you could average about one ant per second, it would take about 405 hours to count that many ants.

  I think I counted 1,458,276 ants on my front lawn sidewalk and front porch steps today before I lost count.  Both black ants and red ants, and there's bad blood between them.  I saw a huge brawl on one of the steps today.  Red ants were definitely winning.  While I am generally a pacifist, I have murder in my heart vis-a-vis these critters.  Does anyone know of an effective, non-toxic method of sending them to ant heaven while not hurting other innocent, 4 legged or winged friends?  I'm not sure Raid is the answer.
