Re finding ants on your stove: they might be following pipes in the wall, but those might also be a different KIND of ants, maybe ones that like greasy food crumbs?
I know when I lived in CA desert, my house was built on different kinds of ant colonies that took turns scouting & then invading, so you can't assume they all want
the same thing from you...
Gee, what awful timing for you!Not like ants are EVER convenient...
If some are after water, I wonder if you could give them a decoy bowl of (spiked) water? something they'd get to BEFORE needing to invade your snakes. I think
I saw some remedy suggested about making a solution of water, borax & ?, then soaking cotton balls in it & leaving them around for the ants to sip from? I dunno?
But you're definitely in all our thoughts, & hoping you'll find some effective & non-toxic ways to repel them. I don't think it's possible to get totally rid of them?
