Well, we do that. But they keep coming back for more. I think there's a whole bunch of colonies living like, under my cupboards or something cuz no matter how much we spray them with cleaners and patch up their holes they just keep making more and more. And now they are in my living room. Does ant poison kill the whole colony or just a couple of ants in the one hole you stick it in? Cuz we could dump a bunch outside...
