    I've been using an item named "Stickeranta" for the past couple of
years.  Very effective, although it does take a week or two to fully
eliminate a given ant colony.  It consists of a molded plastic puck with a
chemical in the centre.  You place it near the anthill and just leave it
there.

> What do you recommend for ant control in a dirt garden area? I've been
using granular Triazicide with minimal results on the ant hills and areas.
> Ther used to be a granular product called "Arizona's Best". I can no
longer find it anywhere. I got 100% results and didn't even have to lightly
sprinkle it in. Is this product still available somewhere?
> Just curious why a very effective product is taken off the market.
> I would like to use a ready-to-use spray or granular product.
