I had a problem with ants trying to get into the house and was told to put down sage. I used some dried sage that was in the cupboard and I've only had to repeat it once since last May!! Apparently it doesn't matter if it's fresh or dried there's just something about it that they don't like.
Hope that helps!

boiling water - if its somewhere you can pour boiling water that is. got rid of an infestation of red ants in the greenhouse once. ok not so good for the ants.. but needs must...
