Hey..
Well It has been raining here lately...so my outdoor enclosure (containing a baritji) has been totally invaded by ants!!!!! There a literally millions of them they are every where.....and when I found them this morning I had to move out my baritji..coz they were attacking him!!! (hes OK).. SO i was wondering how can I get rid of these ants PERMENTLY??? Without hurting the baritji?????????

In all seriousness, I would call an bug eliminator and ask his advice, advice is free, well usually! |
