This afternoon I discovered that a pot of Nerine bowdenii in the greenhouse had a metropolis of little black ants living in the soil. Took pot outside, dumped soil and ants, repotted the nerine bulbs. Having mixed a goodly amount of soil I started repotting the other pots of nerine. No ants in their pots but now I noticed a hegira of ants busily climbing up and down one of the outside wall's metal supports. Some are carrying little white pupae? These are the tiny ants that if found in the kitchen I call sugar ants. Some folk call them pavement ants. Really tiny. There's a wren in the greenhouse almost every morning but doubt she will be of any help with this situation. Our usual routine is to open garage door, open greenhouse door to garage, and she departs. The chipmunk - fortunately once only - was more difficult to evict. Finally left through the automatic louvers in the side wall after I removed the screening. I put an ant trap near the ants migration route. Should I be worried?
