Default Pet food & Ants !!
Hi Everyone - We are just getting settled in out new house (Yea !!) and I have a question...We have 2 cats and I leave water and dry food out for them all day. I have placed them on a plastic tray, and have even placed the food bowl inside a flat bowl with water in it - I heard that this keeps the ants from getting to the dry food. Well...this trick doesn't seem to be working too well as I still see tiny ants on the floor around the tray. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Also is there an insecticide that is animal-friendly that I can use in the house? Thanks for any help...
