I have a solution that might take a day or a week. Ok you put
1 teaspoon or boric acid (borax found at most grocery stores)
6 tablespoons of sugar
2 cups or water.

Mix in a jar with a few holes in the lids just big enough for the ants, and not other creatures that might be able to get into the enclosure, and some cotton balls in the jar. Put it in the enclosure and the ants will go in the jar, take it back to their nest, and they will all go away. Hope this helps.

: Does anyone have a safe solution for fire ants in a tortoise enclosure?
