Coat the stem with tangle foot, and make sure none of the branches touch the ground or anything else.

Mix boric acid 1/ 1 with sweet jam mold into little balls about half the size of a .177 BB and leave around plant (make sure pets cant get to it)

instant cream of wheat creal , leave out a soda cap full of the dry grain

Check and see if they are farming aphids, Black ants will do this. And usually its the aphids that are the bigger problem. Tiny bugs that suck the juices out of your leaves.
