Answer 3

Its sometimes hard to find but if you can find some boric acid powder. It isn't as bad as it sounds. They actually put it in eye drops.

It is sold for use as a flea killer and a roach powder. You can sometimes find large buckets of it on the internet. Sprinkle it over your yard and let it sit on the grass a couple days. It is safer than using an insecticide. You can also just buy some outdoor insecticide and a big sprayer and go to town on your lawn. They are probably doing some good out there - unless they are really a nuisance I'd leave them alone.
