Harold, Todd thanks again. Trying to ensure I maintain my processes as near to organic as possible. Yesterday a worker at an organic farm told me they frequently use a mixture of boiled hot peppers, garlic and neem as an organic pesticide. As soon as I have the specific formula I'll share it.

I cant speak to ants effecting the roots, but, if you want to get rid of them, diatomacious earth will take care of them. It is non-toxic and commonly used as a calcium suppliment for farm animals. It is a fine powder that is like glass to ants. Put a generous line around the base of your toughs and the problem should be solved pretty quickly. I have put it down under the weed mat my troughs are on to prevent just that.

<p>Hi Nigel,</p>
<p>Great to see you here. We have a lot of discussions on pest scattered here and there around the forums. Personally i leave them alone and they don't seem to affect my AP.
