This is incredibly informative, thank you so much. I'm definitely going to start looking for Borax tomorrow.
I’ll actually end up putting it all over our house and the garden too, because we have scorpions around here that i should probably get rid of as well, so knowing this is relatively safe...
I'm from the Sultanate of Oman. I don't think we have fire ants here, so they must be a different type, here js a picture i just took

this is the only female i have, not sure how old she is, she was gifted to me by a family member five years ago.
I bought this...
Thank you!

I will start using coconut oil instead!
Thank you again and...
