I just walked out into my kitchen and discovered a couple dozen TINY ants romping around all over my stove! I don't know where they came from, they showed up rather suddenly.
I am Buddhist, so I don't kill any living being. So since killing them is not an option, does anyone know what I can do to deter them? Normally when I see a regular black ant in my house I just pick him up and escort him outside. But these little buggers are TINY!
Seems to me I've heard various things over the years, but I'll be darned if I can remember any now that I need to. Something about putting mint leaves on the counter, or something like that?
Any ideas on how to deter them would be great. My stove is a smooth top and nice and clean, and my counters are clean. I don't leave any food out.
