Default Ants.....

has anybody got any advice on how to get rid of fucking ants? Got them in my house and their doing me head in!!
Tried a bowl thing where they take bits of its content back to the nest and it kills them. Hard little bastards, just wont die!


Any ideas please..... Got two cats so need something that wont kill them

Cheers, Smudge

I used the TESCO stuff but was in a big red 1 litre trigger spray bottle but awsome, worked a treat, best stuff I have ever used called ANT GUN I think, kills all creepy crawlies, safe with pets, don't know how but it is.
It says to leave to dry then pefectly safe.
