Default Sugar ants

How do y'all get rid of sugar ants? I have a 2 year old so trying to avoid poison in the house if possible.

Talstar is a safe insecticide that works very well, but it's not cheap

Demon WP is great for all types insects and you can start off just treating around outside of house but if that dont do the trick I would spray along baseboard and then leave for the day if you worry about kid getting in it but it is oder less and will dry quick.

This is another idea: http://insects.about.com/b/2012/06/1...sugar-ants.htm

Read the comments from others to see what else worked. Should get rid of the ants in a day!!

They were horrible when I worked in Venice. They would come into my camper by coming up the jacks. I was told to sprinkle baby powder around & on the jacks & it worked, stopped them from getting in.
