They are all gone now!!!
Hi Angie,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, the yard option was the last thing to try, as prior to that the pest services were treating the house perimeter and inside.

The current service did tell us (I was there last month) that if these things kept showing up, a one-time yard treatment would be in order. I will check with my Mom to see if that took place, as the service provider was supposed to be there yesterday or today.

If you can remember the name of that spray and post it, I'd appreciate it. But thanks for posting what you did, regardless.

Rick
