I have been seeing dips and holes in my carrot bed.
I have seen normal ants on the surface, put down coffe grinds but still there. I had a little dig about and it was crawling in yellow ants. Yuk.
No sign of any seeds or germination.
Are these different to normal ants? have they been eating the seeds?
I read on here that cornmeal is good for getting rid of ants, where can I buy this?
If I redig the bed and put down fresh seed I assume they will just come straight back.
This is a new veg patch and raised bed, no sign of anything when I put them in about 5/6 weeks ago and they were weeded before I sowed the carrots.
janeyo - frustrated! I hate ants at the best of times, once told OH in our old house we would have to move as I'd found some wandering along the hall!
