Can you close the vent in some way that won't result in an explosion or a heat wave in that area of the place? We duct taped one of our vents off once because of ants (and because we didn't have any poison).

You can't just go around squishing them willy nilly you have to locate the queen ant and step on her. Then, while they're trying to figure out who is the new queen, hit them with the hose. Or alternatively you could just turn it on and drench them. :smash:
Squashing's good.
Or! Or use a vacuum cleaner and suck them all up!!
But ants are my fwiends. . .

Blow up your trailer. Problem solved.
Or better yet cheat on your boyfriend and then go on Jerry Springer where your boyfriend can bulldoze your trailer for you. :mog:
My mom puts the kitties food bowls in pie tins with water to make a moat. Other than animal food, we only get ants when we leave food out, so don't do that. Keep the kitchen clean.
It also helps to put your food scraps outside. If the ants get their food close to their home they're less likely to travel inside of yours.
I did try doing that, but I didnt have the proper equipment.Quote:

I went and bought some pet-safe pesticides (they're organic) and some of the bait that they take back to the colony. The pesticides work real well.
i would jsut call an exterminator.
I would, but I dont have the money. So I'm trying to avoid any expensive solutions.Quote:

NOT FOR MY ANT FARM!Quote:

seriously if you have a hose with one of the LBST (liquid bottle squirty things) attachments fill the bottle with shampoo and spray the vent it'll do no harm to anyone but the insects it works on wasps and bees too.
I like ants. :cry: Kill all the roaches you want, but spare the ants. u can make an antfarm!
Find their nest/anthill/thing and surround it in sugar water. then standby with a bottle of Aqua-Net Hairspray and a lighter (preferrably one of those long ones). Wait for the ants to take the bait. BURN, YOU S.O.B.'S!!!!!!!! Seriously, it worked here.
