I went to see if Gracie went in her trap this evening at about 6:00. The trap was closed and I was thrilled....only to see nothing in there!!!

Somehow, it must have shut, the food wasn't touched but was COVERED in ants!

I removed the food, reset the trap on the other side and put some smelly anchovies in there.

David was returning from his softball game about ten minutes ago and went to check if she went in....not yet.

I sure hope she goes in by tomorrow so we can have her fixed before I start my new job on Monday.

Can I solicit some prayers on this one?? I am a little worried that she knows its a trap now.

This stuff is great for ants. Doesn't hurt pets etc. but works wonders on the ants. We sprinkle a circle around the food dish when trapping and we never see a ant in the food or around it.

I have trapped a couple of the strays in our neighborhood and I found it helpful to cover the trap with an old sheet or blanket and put newspaper on the floor of the cage. That way she won't notice the wire quite as much when she walks in and she might not recognize it as a trap if it is covered.

Good luck and I hope you get her before Monday.
