Folks,



Went out to find some products this morning. I was able to find diatomaceous earth at Lowe's, but only the pool filter variety (one box is enough to ant-proof the San Diego Zoo!). The nursery had never heard of the stuff! (?!?!). Anyhow, I did score a Citrus Oil product:



"Ortho Home Defense Indoor Insect Killer with Orange Peel Extract"



It comes in a green spray bottle with a yellow top. Worked great - ya' shoulda' seen the little buggers scramble for their lives! It's been several hours and there's only been two stragglers I've seen so far (there were dozens this morning). The fat happy Green 'Conda was non-plussed by the whole incident after being re-introduced to the enclosure.



Thanks again, appreciate the assistance!!



Talk with ya' later,



Dave Sanders
