Hi, you have annoying ants in the house and it annoys you?
You are in the right place in today's post I will share with you how to get rid of those little annoying ants.
I had ants in the house they came in everywhere and even in the bread on one occasion my friend came to my lunch and when I cut the bread the ants flew out of the bread then I was embarrassed by those little annoying creatures.
I went to my grandmother and my grandmother gave me these tips on how to get rid of ants in a natural way without calling rodent control since it is expensive.
Grandma gave me these tips and I finally got rid of those little annoying creatures so here are natural recipes on how you can get rid of ants too.
In other words, there are many ways to get rid of ants in a natural way, and the best thing is that we already have most of the things to eliminate ants in our home.
Here are some of the most effective and simple ways to get rid of them.
Make your own natural remedy against annoying ants:
Lemon juice.
Sprinkle the critical areas with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Citric acid bothers ants and as soon as they feel it, they move away from it. Squeeze the lemon juice along the cracks and into the cracks. Like we said, ants don’t like citric acid.
Clove essential oil
To prepare your "tools" in the fight against this scourge, you will need clove essential oil. Otherwise, this oil is used as a natural insecticide and repellent (repels mosquitoes, flies, yellow ants, cockroaches, etc.).
What is needed is to dilute 40 drops of clove oil in 200ml of water. Pour the solution into a spray bottle, shake well before use and spray all openings where insects come out.
Repeat this procedure once every 3 days. Unwanted guests will soon leave your house forever!
The fact is that ants do not tolerate phenol - a toxic substance found in clove oil, but which is absolutely harmless to humans and animals.
Cinnamon.
Apply cinnamon essential oil on all corners where ants appear (you can do that with ear sticks).
You can also make a liquid from half a liter of water and two tablespoons of cinnamon. Spray the places where the ants are with the obtained mixture. Or pour cinnamon in critical places (follow the path of ants, where they appear from). The ants will disappear quickly.
This is a proven and effective combination:
Spray the ants with a solution of vinegar and water (2: 1).
A low percentage kills ants without fear of destroying the furniture. This is a great way to get rid of ants if you know where they are.
You can use vinegar in several ways. You can pour it directly on the hot spot (if you find it). Guaranteed to destroy all ants and prevent their reappearance. Then, you can spray the corners and small holes with a combination of vinegar and dish detergent.
Water and dish detergent: Boil half a liter of water and add 50 ml of dish detergent. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and sprinkle the critical areas. You can also use this great trick for weeds.
Baking soda and powdered sugar: Mix equal amounts of baking soda and powdered sugar. Place the mixture where the most ants are. In a few days you will destroy them all.
Sprinkle red hot peppers (if you don't have small children and pets) on the ant's path. Red peppers will drive them away quickly.
Feed the ants cornmeal. The ants will take the corn to their nests, they will eat it, but since they cannot digest it, it will kill them. Corn flour is not dangerous for children and pets.
Chalk: You can get cheap chalk for ants in all agricultural pharmacies. Simply draw a line and don't worry, ants won't dare cross it. Draw cracks (if you have them) with chalk.
Chalk sticks in cracks and ants do not like chalk, that is, they do not like calcium carbonate from chalk. This will keep them away from where you applied the chalk.
Now that you have read what I have shared with you what are you waiting for? start fighting these little annoying creatures, good luck.
