I've suffered this problem too. The only solution that I have found is
to use 1 pint motor oil bottles (plastic), cut in half. Place legs of
table/cabinet in each one and add 1/2 inch - 1 inch of motor oil.
The smell goes away after a month; the oil won't evaporate & NO ant
will try & cross the moat!
Sorry about your Carpet. LOL
Cheers,
Chris
