Check this page out. I used wd40 to get rid of carpenter bees. It's worth a try.

Thanks. I just sprayed WD 40 and my next attempts will be garlic and cinnamon.... recommended below.

The best exterminator I have ever used (for termites, ants, etc...), has been a very nice frum gentleman who's name I can't remember. His business name used to be "The Bug Zapper". I'm not sure what the business name is now. His phone number is 718-258-5862.
Hope this helps.

In addition, I also used Mr. bug zapper when I had yellow jackets coming into the house from a nest in the wall of the house.

Amother Honeydew! Thank you, thank you! Wow! So far so good. I owe you bigtime! Two exterminators want between $400 and $850. and Id rather eliminate them myself of course. I havent seen even one today (yet). But how long did you do the WD 40 applications? And I saw all but one carpenter ant in one room, should I do a WD 40 spraying in every room? I hesitate to do it in bedrooms. What worked for others? Or do the sickened ants in the main room that I saw them (living room) take their sickness wherever they travel in my house (other rooms), and sicken them?

Update:

In addition to the WD40 I spoke to the guy at Terro who recommended this. I sprayed it all around the room, at the gap of floor and baseboard where I was seeing them. So far so good! If this works long term, I saved hundreds.
