How Do You Kill Ants The Non-Toxic Way?
We’ve all had ants in our house at one time or another, and getting rid of the little critters permanently is never easy. There are plenty of pesticides on the market today, and many of them work quite well. But what if you have pets, small children or sick family members who can’t be around all those chemicals? You might also want to avoid pesticides as part of your effort to go green. Whatever the reason, it’s easy to kill those ants the nontoxic way. Put 1/8 teaspoon of powdered borax into small containers. Use as many containers as you need to have at least one in each place you have ants. Mix the borax with 1/8 teaspoon of either sugar or honey. Use just enough so you have a good mixture of the two ingredients. Place the containers around your house, anywhere you’re having problems with ants. You can also place them outside if you have ant problems on your porch or patio. Allow the ants to come to your trap and take the nontoxic ant killer back to the nests. They won’t be back! Sp
