This is the second year in a row that we have had flying ants in the master bathroom. They come in and die (alot of them) and yes there is some water damage to the wall next to the shower, so that now makes sense. Unfortunatly cost is an issue with replacing the wall. Can they be controlled until we replace the wall? Last year they disappeared after about 2 months. We live in Florida so there is alot of humidity now. Would diatomaceous earth and boric acid work as a dusting powder temporarily? I have a special needs child and cannot have any harsh chemicals in the house. Thank you!
