The ants go marching one by one .....
3 days into our last camping trip, I happened to walk down the driver side of our rig ... what do I see but a line of ants going up our water hose and up the side of the rig. Out comes the broom and bug spary.
Flash forward two weeks ... while in the RV doing some cleaning up, what do I see but here an ant / there an ant ... there weren't many, but they were there.
I didn't want to take everything out and BOMB the rig so I used TERRO liquid ant killer. I set out 8 - 1"square pieces of plastic (milk jug) with drops of the TERRO on them in areas where I saw the most ant activity inside & under the rig. The ants were attracted to the sweet poisin and took it back to their nest. Within 5 days, ants were gone ... haven't seen any since.
Now, when we go camping and while the rig is parked at home, I spray around the wheels, water line, power cord, etc. with bug spray to keep the ant and other creepy crawler away.
