KILLING ANTS WITH DIATOMACEOUS EARTH
As we're developing our fruit and vegetable crops we've become aware of how many ants there are in the agricultural area. Mary decided to try this since nothing else has been effective.

We don't want to use poison because we drink water from wells on our property. The ground is so permeable that pesticides get down in the water table very quickly.
We called the big mound The Matterhorn, we've never seen an ant mound 18" tall before. We are hoping this treatment will put a dent in our ant population.
