I'm sorry and I don't mean to laugh but ROFLOL!!! "AN ANT MOAT"!! That cracked me up!! It sounds like a wonderful idea to me!

Thank goodness we are only having a problem with the great big black carpenter ants. I hate them but they are so big the kitties chase them down and eliminate them quickly!!
