Ant infestation!!

[Azmp1]

Folks, I have ants in my Aqualink RS box!! How do I clean them out?? Can’t spray because of electronics..

Power it down and spray it. Wait a few hours before it dries out before powering it up again.

Put some ant bait traps on the bottom.

I'd go leaf blower at enough distance to get rid of the ants without tossing the wiring too much.
