If the windowsill in question is NOT one that your ferrets, children, or
any other household animal are likely to sit in, then I have a suggestion.
I learned this from my grandmother, and it *really* works! Sprinkle Comet
Cleanser (you know, the scrubby powder cleaner stuff that turns blue when
it gets wet?) on the windowsill. The ants will *not* cross that line!
They stay on their side, you stay on your side, everyone's happy. I have
done this for years and I never have an ant, except for the ones that my
children bring in as "pets."
Now if I could just find such a solution for fruit flies...<sigh!>

rabbit, and a parakeet named Chompers.
