Re: Borax - Where to buy?
I am always buying borax and clear glue to feed my daughter the slime monster.
Some slime has incredible properties. She made some last week that stretched about twenty metres before breaking!

How's your highway now, UT?
I have finally got around to mixing up this concoction today for the small (but still annoying) remainder of ants in my place. They are all over it.

Slowly but surely. I've been mixing the borax with peanut butter which they seem to like. They are starting to dwindle but as they are coming from the neighbours and probably from the next house, etc. there are still a few around.timmydownawell wrote: ↑Mon Aug 06, 2018 6:15 pm How's your highway now, UT?

A couple of weeks back I mixed some sugar and borax in warm water till it was all dissolved, then put some on the front balcony and some on the back balcony. The ants at the front were all over it. The ants out the back not really interested (just some of them liked it). Different type of ant I suppose.

I was using a condensed milk/borax combo which got rid of most of mine, now trying Peanut butter combo for the rest.
