You and me both Leon , its been calculated that there is on average 20 tons
YES 20 TONS of ants per Sq kilometer in the NT , big buggers some up tp 20mm long that bite bad right down to the tiny <1mm Ginger ants that are attracted to the 60 Htz of our power supplies so get into anything electrical , switches , TV's , machinary etc , and kill them .
I use a combo of the 'Ant Rid ' and the 'Bayer Ant and Wasp Dust ' from Bunnings it's quite expensive but if you find their nest holes , and there are lots !!!! dust them and their trails , they also take it back to the nest on their feet and kill from the inside .
Some ants wont take 'Ant Rid' tho so just Nuke them !!!.
Takes time but you will get on top of them ,,, also don't feel the Guilt's !!!, they are only ants .
