We have an infestation of teeny/tiny bugs (maybe ants??) We don't know what gets rid of them. They're smaller than ants but the way they scurry reminds me of ants. They're around and in the kitchen sink plus a bathroom sink as well. I poured vinegar down one drain to see if it would work. Maybe bleach next???

Terro works well on the tiny "ghost" ants.

Ace hardware is your friend for household pests. They know what you need and will have it in their store. Closed on Sunday's though.

We had an infestation in the spring of tiny reddish ants. Appeared to come from under the wax ring beneath the toilet bowl in the main bath. Thought they came from under the slab but never could spot them outside. Terro didn't phase them. Plain old Zevo and Raid for ants and roaches sprayed daily without fail and then Home Defense finally did the job.

We even had them in the dishwasher, hot water didn't kill them. Sprayed Home Defense in the DW and ran it thru a cycle. They never came back.

Use the commercial products listed but also try full strength white vinegar. Give any mass or entry locations a good vinegar bath. Let it sit. Clean maybe repeat.

Diatomaceous earth works well. It dehydrates them. They don’t like it.

Florida Pest treats our property and they are very good and not that costly. When we see inside ants they come out, put a couple drops of something in the correct places, and the pests are gone in a day or so. Boom, done, professionals know their stuff.
