Ants are a common problem for homeowners across the globe. Ants do damage to your property by chewing on wood and leaving unwanted food behind. Some types of ants can also cause sickness in humans, especially with children. Here’s how to get rid of ants permanently and how to get rid of ants in the house quickly. Ants don’t really bother people, and most of them are actually beneficial to have around. However, for the ones that get inside the house, it can be very frustrating. Ants are not only stubborn and difficult to fight, but they multiply incredibly quickly – it doesn’t take long for a few ants to become a lot of ants! In this article, we will explore the best ways to get rid of ants naturally in your home for good.

Natural Remedy For Ants

Natural Remedy For Ants

This natural remedy for ants is easy to use and effective. Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1/2 cup of water
• 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons of dish soap (any brand)

Mix all three ingredients together until they’re well mixed. Pour into a spray bottle, shake well and apply as needed in areas where you’ve seen ants or near their path. Reapply as needed.

Ingredients

• water
• baking soda

1/2 cup water

If you were to use the metric system, a half cup would be equal to 4 fluid ounces. One cup is 8 fluid ounces and one pint is 16 fluid ounces. As you can see, it’s much easier and faster to memorize a unit of measurement when they’re consistent throughout all units of measurement in a country or region.

You may have heard that Americans are resistant to change and adopting foreign standards of measurement like the metric system because it’s too complicated for Americans who don’t have time for such things. In fact, most Americans don’t even know how many bottles of beer fit into one gallon!

1/2 cup baking soda

• 1/2 cup baking soda. A quarter of a cup of baking soda sprinkled around the area where you see ants will kill them on contact, and the rest will be consumed by those that survive. The only problem is that it may take several days for your ants to consume it all and die off. If this isn’t good enough for you, there are other options!

Baking soda is not toxic to humans or pets, so there’s no need to worry about using it in your home as a natural ant killer (though we wouldn’t recommend eating any). It also acts as an odor remover, which makes it perfect for getting rid of smells like those left behind by dead bodies (yes—ants carry their dead away from their nests). Another use for baking soda? Making cookies!

1 tablespoon Borax

You can also use Borax to kill ants. Borax is a naturally occurring mineral that was used as a cleaning agent for many years before it was discovered that it could also be used as an insecticide. It works by dehydrating ants, which results in death.

Borax is available in the laundry detergent aisle at most supermarkets and grocery stores, or online from Amazon or other online retailers. You can find it under the brand name of 20 Mule Team Borax Powder (the brand name comes from the fact that this product was developed and mined on mule teams). If you don’t have access to any borax powder, you can buy Boraxo soap instead; however, this may not work as well since soap doesn’t work as effectively on insect exoskeletons (like those of ants) compared with powders do.

Make this ant killer and be ant free!

Firstly, you’ll need [the ingredients]. The amount depends on the size of your infestation.

• Mix together one part borax with three parts sugar and pour it into a jar or bottle.
• Label the bottle so that you know what it is and that you should keep out of reach of children.

If the ants are still around after three weeks, add another teaspoonful of borax and shake thoroughly before using again.

This recipe will last for months but only if kept in a cool dry place – if this is not possible then keep refilling as required (make sure there are no gaps for them to get through). Once you have used it up or want to put some in storage make sure that everything is clean before closing lid tightly – alternatively use food-grade airtight containers like those made from glass or plastic which come with lids designed specifically for this purpose (these can be purchased cheaply online). If possible store where no children will find it by accident!
