Beneficial nematodes are microscopic organisms effective against over 200 different insects. Thanks for this post. Ants often farm aphids much like the way humans farm cows.
Ants in my raised bed. Nuisance ants nest indoor or outdoor gardens. Ants have taken over my raised vegetable garden and they hurt when they bite so my garden has been neglected.
I havent found anything that said it is able to be used in a food garden. See pictures of the nasty things below. This involves broadcasting a granular material that includes an insecticide and an attractant usually soybean oil.
I purchased grants ant baits for outdoor use. After a closer look fortunately they are only a simple native garden ant Lasius niger. Should I look at getting a pest man out.
Raised beds make it easy to use floating row covers over a frame. Killing the ants is easy enough if you get the hang of it. Even if I stand theyll come out get in my shoes.
