Good message on Splenda and the Coke/Pepsi drinks.
 
 
AntKiller
For those of you using the new Splenda sugar substitute which you can buy at Costco, let me tell you what 
a great ant killer it is. We were having bigtime ant problems here.  At night they would eat the leaves off our 
grapefruit, lemon, lime and orange trees. They would travel in single file a hundred feet or more from 
the source of the goodies to the nest holes in the ground. Many excavations including several right next to 
the foundation of the house. Well, I read where Splenda started out as an ant killer and when they discovered 
how sweet it was they turned it into a sugar substitute.  Poisonous for ants but not for humans???
See my page at
www.detailshere.com/splenda. htm  for  why you don't want to use it as a sugar substitute.  Right 
in there with sacharin and aspartame. But I did try it  out on all the ant nest entrances.  Bingo, GONE. I can't find 
any trace of ants or fresh dirt being removed or more leaves disappearing.  Apparently the took it inside the nest 
from the entrance and it did a whammy on them.
Costco also sells PureVia   
www.purevia.com which is a Stevia plant based product, also zero calories but 
no detrimental effects. I understand Coke and Pepsi are planning to come out with a diet drink using stevia
for the sweetener. Still doesn't account for the phosphoric acid in the these pop products that's stripping the 
calcium from your bones and giving you sponge bones that are brittle and easily broken as well as turning your 
body acid which opens it up to all kinds of diseases. One 12 ounce coke at pH4.0 will require 32 glasses of 
pH 10.5 water to neutralize it. One 12 ounce coke a day will also put 8 pounds of fat on your body in a year. 
Interesting. I'm becoming very fond of lemonade sweetened with Stevia.
