How To Make Poison For Ants

I was walking through the supermarket the other day, and I couldn’t help but notice how many people had their carts filled with ant killer products. There were all sorts of options available, such as sprays, gel baits, and granules. If you’re wondering how these work to kill ants, it’s really rather simple. Ants ingest the poison when returning to their nests. When eaten, the poison causes paralysis and death, thus exterminating infestations. Imagine if you can, the sound of an ant’s knees slapping against its exoskeleton as it ran outside of your home. You watch as hundreds and eventually thousands of these little creatures march their way to doom that could have been so easily avoided if they just hadn’t stirred things up by wandering inside.  We all hate ants, they seem to just create havoc on our properties and in our gardens. The following article outlines a quick and easy way of making poison ingredients (using everyday products around the house). It also provides creative ways to use these poisons in order to effectively exterminate the ants. Hey there! So you want to get rid of ants, do ya? Well, it seems like everyone does. It’s like we’re all fighting an intense ant war and I’m going to show you how to win. If you are having any issues with making your own homemade ant killer, please feel free to leave a comment below. If there is enough interest, I will add that topic in the full post and give additional details on how to make this ant poison recipe.

How To Make Poison For Ants

Introduction

Ants are a problem for a lot of people, but most commercial ant poisons and baits can be dangerous if you have pets or small children in your home. These homemade ant bait recipes use only simple ingredients and can be safely used around pets and kids.

# How To Make Poison For Ants

  • Get a small container. A dish or small bowl will do, but you’ll want it to be deep enough for your ants to be able to climb inside once they’ve been poisoned.
  • Get a paper towel, and tear off an edge that’s roughly the width of your ant poison mixture (this is what we’ll use later on).
  • Get some warfarin (or if you don’t have that handy, try using an aspirin).
  • Put about 0.5 grams (that’s about 1/4 teaspoon) of warfarin into the container with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of water—and stir until it becomes a smooth paste!

# Gather your materials.

  • Gather your materials.

You need to gather two ingredients: sugar and borax (sodium tetraborate). You can find both of these at your local grocery store, but if you want to know the best place to buy them, read on!

# How to kill the ants with poison.

  • Place the poison in areas where you know ants are going to be.
  • Make sure there are no pets or children around when you place the poison.
  • Don’t use too much of the poison, as it can be harmful to your pets and children if they eat it.

# Final step.

Once you’ve mixed your poison, leave it out for a few days. If you see dead ants, it means the poison is working! If not, try using a stronger formula of borax. If you still don’t see any ant deaths after a few days of leaving the poison out, dig up some more ants and try mixing that with the same recipe of borax.

The Warfarin method is an effective way to get rid of ants.

In order to make poison for ants, you are going to need some Warfarin. This is a chemical that will kill the ants eating it. You can buy Warfarin at your local pharmacy, or if you’re feeling adventurous, you may be able to find it online. It’s important that you keep this poison in a safe place where children and pets cannot get into it. The last thing you want is for your pet or child to eat this stuff!

If you have pets in the house and they still manage to access the poison, call your vet immediately—it’s important not to wait until they show symptoms before seeking medical attention.
