    Has anyone ever seen this stuff for sale anywhere in dumaguete? I have been informed ace hardware sell it by the distributor in Manila but don't fancy driving to Cebu or Bacolod to find sorry sir no more stock!
    Reason for asking is we has a problem with those little carpenter ants coming out of electrical sockets and any other place they could find to hide.
    In the end we had pest control here who used this ant gel and haven't seen an ant since.
    Tried all the other stuff like borax,123 powder but it only worked on a temporary basis. image.jpg

    As you know they don't like diversing where they get their stuff from,but tracked the importer supplier to Manila.they put me on to a guy in Bacolod who put me in touch with a guy here. Hopefully he is going to ring back today to let me know if they will start stocking it in citi hardware and handyman.

    I've had quite a few people talk about their success using the Ant Powder (yes, that's just what you ask for) available at the store "Tops & Bottoms" (across from Quezon Park). I still need to check it out...
