    Frank I tried some stuff from Lowe's, Spectracide "Once and Done" a couple years ago. Looks like ground up Doritos, Put out 1 40lb. bag over my back yard and wiped them out. I apply it once a early summer if they show up and in days their history. I also keep the yard sprayed with Cutter's Bug Free Backyard once a month for Skeeters and it also runs fire ants off. Just ask my old neighbor, what ants survived took over his place plus the skeeters, what are good neighbors for?

    All seriousness after I derailed the thread with my silly childhood

    A reputable pest service should take care of them. I will have Terminex here next week to make all creepy crawling things die. I don't have a wiffle ball bat anymore and I have them too. Terminex said thier services would take care of them so I will see it to believe it. I am more concerned with spiders since we all know how I like them If I has more than 4 legs I can't deal with em

    Stupid Bee

    Went out back and found one starting to make a new home.
    He drills a bit then flies around to check out his new hood.
    I'm gonna let him finish just to see his face when he comes out the other side.
    Stupid bee is drilling his home in 1/2 inch treated plywood.

    It's funny I stumbled upon this thread because my girlfriend and I were whacking them with the big old bam-bam whiffle ball bats at my parents house last night. My girlfriend calls them driller bees and says they can not sting? I don't believe her. We took out about a half a dozen of them in a 15 minute period.

    As a kid it was tennis raquet aplication for the most part. BB gun used to be fun for the ones that hovered outside the soffit. Great practice for future life as a bird shooter... The dents in the siding though got my folks grumbling a bit so I had to give it up.
