Crawling in an one my carpet how to get rid?
An ant bait placed where they are coming in will give the ants something to take to their nest and in time the ants will be gone. An ant bait for sugar loving ants is needed for them and a protein bait is needed for ants that do not like sugar.
The ants are just passing by on the carpet- there's a nest just outside your house somewhere. For the room, vacuum up he ants and then sprinkle diaotomaceous earth on the rug and floor, and vacuum up a little of that to kill the ants in the vacuum - and then empty the canister. For the rest of them, either put a 50/50 mixture of sugar and Borax by the tablespoonful every 4 feet along the top of your foundation ledge inside the basement, or get some premise spray for outside. Make sure if you put out Borax, it's not accessible to kids or dogs - it's toxic. Otherwise, the ants will take it back to the nest thinking it's food, and the nest will be killed off.
