Borax is sodium borate is boric acid.
The exterminator came today and didn't even mention boric acid. In fact he didn't even spray anything. That kinda makes me glad since I'm edgy about chemicals sprayed where my food is. He said the Grant's ant spikes I got would work fine but mixed a bit a water in with it so the ants would take it faster and easier. He said they removed that tip from the box a few years ago because people were getting the dehydrated honey / arsenic / water on their fingers and ingesting it :S As an added bonus he gave me a good story about some guy who was getting poisoned by his housekeeper. She was using ant bait from a trap to put in his food!
