Ants at home?
And you are looking for effective repellents to scare them away?
No need to buy a commercial bug spray!
Not only are these insecticides not given...
...but they are also harmful to health.
Fortunately, there are simple and effective tips for getting rid of ants. Watch:
Lemon is an excellent natural ant repellent.
To do this, place slices of lemons directly in their path.
Also put some in strategic places like doors and windows to repel them. It's perfect for getting rid of ants in the house
You can also rub a 1/2 lemon on the doorstep and the bottom of the windows. And it also works with lemon peels.
To extend its action, dilute the juice of a lemon in water and water their usual places of passage. Check out the trick here.
Ants hate putting their feet in diatomaceous earth because it's super absorbent. It is a natural ant repellent! Why?
Because the earth absorbs the bodily fluids that protect the ants and they hate it. So they won't go through that anymore.
For this repellent to be effective, sprinkle diatomaceous earth in the usual path of the ants.
Also remember to put some along the floor joints or cracks in which they hide.
In places where it is possible, for example in the attic and the cellar, leave the powder visible.
Be aware that surfaces treated with this natural powder must be dry for it to work.
To get rid of an anthill that has settled too close to your home, diatomaceous earth is also effective. To make a powerful anti-ant product, it's easy.
Mix 2 tablespoons of diatomaceous earth in 1/4 cup of water.
Then pour this mixture directly into the anthill.
This liquid will spread throughout the anthill and as it dries, it will have the same drying and abrasive effects as indicated above.
Dilute white vinegar in water, and spray patios or paved walkways with this mixture and a sprayer.
Ants hate this smell, so they won't go through it again.
As vinegar is also an excellent weed killer, you kill two birds with one stone by eliminating the weeds growing between the tiles.
Be careful, do not spill the vinegar on your flower borders.
And for an even stronger ant repellent, soak lemon peels in pure vinegar for 3 days.
Then mix with water and spray your patio. Goodbye ants!
White vinegar will not kill ants but will keep them away from your terrace.
At home, do nothing to attract ants. Concretely, what does this mean?
Before storing the jars of jam and honey, remember to wipe them well so that none remains on the jar.
Also remember to store sugar and cookies in airtight boxes. Finally, don't forget to put the fruit under glass.
