I'm having trouble with sugar ants at one particular well. Don't have trouble anywhere else but at this location the dang sugar ants are following the wires to recepticals and to the switch on the well and they keep fouling the points to the well. Cows rely solely on this well for their water. Big problem. I'm spraying the points and wires with wasp killer which seems to work for a few days. Someone told me to pour burnt motor oil on the wires and this would help. Any other ideas short of spraying DDT?
