Dry-mix the baking soda and powdered sugar in a container.
If you want to apply the liquid mixture, add warm water little by little along with a few drops of liquid detergent and vinegar.
For the dry mixture, scatter small amounts near ant nests or trails.
For the liquid mixture, use a spray bottle and spray directly on infested areas or on the edges of doors and windows.
Additional tips for best results:
Avoid sweeping the powder immediately: Let the dry mixture sit for several hours or overnight.
Reapply after cleaning: If you clean the area, reapply the mixture to maintain its effectiveness.
Monitor entry points: Place small lids or saucers of the mixture in corners where they tend to appear.
Do not mix with water if you want a long shelf life: The dry mixture tends to keep better and does not lose effectiveness quickly.
Store it in sealed jars: For use at different times without losing its potency.
Use lemon or mint as barriers: Ants dislike citrus and minty scents. You can use essential oils or peels.
Keep your home clean: Avoid leaving crumbs or food scraps exposed, especially sweet ones.
This method is not only effective but also safe and environmentally friendly. Try this solution at home and get rid of these invaders without the need for harsh pesticides. Your home and the planet will thank you!
