What he/she said. Also boric acid will work. Spraying poison around the house and yard is not my idea of a good idea. If it kills things on contact, it might not be a good for you, your pets or kids to come in contact with it. Get it on your shoes and then its in the house, touch the floor and now you gots it. Same with the fish room. A little bit may not harm you but.... Just vacuum a lot and remove the food sources. The only thing I use is orthene and that's to treat fire ant mounds only. If spinosad does not work first. These are just my opinions and your results may vary.
