spot treatment with black knight is the only thing I have found that works 100%. BE CAUTIOUS!!! It will kill crickets too. Make sure when you treat you remove all crickets from the room untill it settles. after you treat, any crix that hit the floor should not be fed.

Hi
here they sel boxes to kill ants.
on the route of the ants you places a tiny antbox and then they get killed after they go to the nest.

RV'ers use diatomacious (sp.?) earth around their wheels to keep the ants away. I have spread DE all around the base of my outdoor cricket container, and it has kept the cage ant free. I would put it under the legs of your beardie and cricket cages. You can purchase it at swimming pool supply stores, Home Depot or Wal-mart in the swimming pool area.
Good Luck!
