Okay, so we have an Ant problem outside living in the woods.
Our ducks/chickens who are together in a large pen.
Well my parents decided to let my ducks finally hatch their eggs since she kept hiding them everywhere she could. We exchanged fake eggs for every new unmarked egg and now shes on a nest of 4 duck eggs and many fake eggs.
Well, there was an ant hill nearby and my mom was getting sick with them and got rid of it. By killing and taking most of the ant hill away and then pouring boiling hot water mixed with vinegar onto what was left.
Now we have ants all over my ducks nest and all dead on her bottom and getting into her feathers and just horrible.. Just don't know what to do exactly.
Should I take the eggs? Or try moving them somewhere else? This isn't what we wanted to happen, we wanted the ants to leave our feet and chickens alone. Moms plan kinda backfired..
