Ant Pests!

I just got rid of another colony!!! Wow that borax and sugar got em again! I mix 1/4 cup of borax soap, 1/4 cup of white sugar and 1/4 cup of hot water and make a paste....Glob it on some business cards around the area they are traveling and Wa-La...gone until the next colony appears! I put the "potion" around my plants outside as well, the ants are very numerous this year! Good Luck with yours! Trudy

Get rid of ANTS! Naturally

Exterminate Naturally! I just use the same amount of sugar, borax soap and 2x water and stir to get RID of them! There are so many around us this year and I am STILL getting rid of these pesty creatures. In the house and out....I just put the "Potion" on a business card or piece of cardboard in the direct line of the bugs and pretty soon you will see a line of ants around the "pond" that you make on the card. It is pretty awesome...They will take the potion to the queen and all of them will DIE! You might have to do it all over again when you see another colony, but it really does work. Trudy
