with extreme prejudice.  I'm loath to use Raid, due to toxicity, smell, and 2 cats.  A couple of people told me about spraying with equal parts white vinegar and water.  Has anyone tried that?  Has it really worked?

I haven't tried that.? I did hear that cornmeal is supposed to kill ants.? They take it back to their colony and the ants eat it, but they can't digest it so it eventually kills them.? I haven't tried that either, though.
