Topic: Getting rid of ants - page 5. (Read 1055 times)
We use vinegar at home to avoid ants, they hate the smell.
I have a yearly problem every summer in my house. I wish I knew a solution.
The home itself is okay for now, everything is definitely clean inside. Just worried that with so many outside, eventually they'll venture inside looking for the smallest bits of food.
Making sure your home is clean and aerosol spray will do the trick .bonus point try to locate their nest and destroy it
If they are in the kitchen: Don't leave anything food related in the house! Don't leave the dishes etc.
Genuine issue here, does anyone have any good solutions to getting rid of ants?
Last time they started getting inside the house, but luckily they haven't reached that stage yet. I've tried those store bought ant poison pellets, and it seemed to have no impact. I've tried making some sugar water and borax solution and it did attract a bunch of ants to the baits, but it seemed to only get half the ants. So half the area is clear of ants (for now) but there is another stream of ants like a metre away that was unaffected.
