Question
We have a problem with red ants, they seem to be making nests all over our property, how can we get rid of them without damaging the grass or plants?

Answer
Carrie,

There are many species of ants but most can be managed with granular baits placed around the colonies. See http://www.livingwithbugs.com/ant_control.html for info about baits in general. Be sure to use a granular bait outdoors.

Post a follow up if you have questions.
