....Besides the tennis racket I've been using? They have infested my house, making holes and flying everywhere.

My normal M.O. is to swat them with my hat and let my dog finish 'em off.

They make his coat shiny, almost waxy.

I like to watch them crawl in the whole then put a piece of packing tape over it.

Any recommendations on what poisonous stuff to use?

I have lots that are under this goofy arse fence on my carport.

I am debating what is more work ripping it out or trying to spray their holes.

I was no shite coming in here to tell you to get after it with that and have fun.

I did this with a buddy of mine back when we were maybe 12 or so, his dad's shed was infested and we did work on them things, they never came back either to this day.
