I keep my bathroom squeeky clean and still they are everywhere. they come in from the ceiling, from the vent on the floor and i swear i think they are coming up from my drain in my sink. I have tried everything. ive sealed everything off, used traps, borax....everything. All i want is to be able to take a nice bubble bath without having to worry about ants (and i enjoy my baths with me being 5 months pregnant.) please someone help!!!!!!

MOST important, use ant baits that contain boric acid (non-toxic unless you ate an entire bottle) and they usually have corn syrup in them so the ants bring the stuff back to colony. You really want them to bring it back to kill the colony. Terro brand are recommended, you can even order boric acid $15 5lbs or $6 for 1lb and mix it with something sugary. The pre-made baits have the right mix though. Boric acid is also good for roaches. Boric acid is safe to use around food.
