Environmentally responsible Ant Killer

The ants came in today in full force.

This picture shows you how they all swarmed to the trap I set for them.

Using Borax Soap

Sugar

And Water

I took about a 1 1/2 cup Borax 1/2 cup sugar and enough water to make a pourable yet thick paste. I drizzled a thin line around the perimeter of the house. I also put a piece of parchment paper on my kitchen counter covered it with some paper towel and drizzled a bit on the towel. For the little ones who were already in my house.

They are attracted to the sugar and they will take it back to the colony and the soap will kill them. You should then have about a 15 foot clear space around your home and they should not come back in.
