anybody having ants problem?
Ants may be cute on the cartoon but real ants in the house is not cute at all!
I know it because I've had ants problems before so I will give you some tip to get rid of them.
- basic way is using bug spray.However, after awhile, they may come back and walking like nothing have happened!!
2.this one was really effective. Do you have any chalk? I happened to had some so I draw lines on the area they are coming in or you can cover the crack of the tiles with the chalk. I observed and they tried to cross the line but they don't. Ants prefer not to walk through a line of powdery material such as chalk dust, talcum powder or diatomaceous earth. Chalk is made of calcium carbonate, which is essentially ground-up seashells. Ants won't cross a chalk line because it interferes with their ability to follow scent trails left by other ants.
3.Use dish soap and water.
Fill a water bottle with one part dish soap and two parts water, then shake it up to mix them thoroughly. When you see ants spray the mixture over them. They'll immediately halt and suffocate. Wipe up the dead ants with a wet cloth, and keep the spray bottle around for next time.
Setting out shallow dishes of soapy water is another good way to kill ants. Lure them in with a trail of something sugary.
This method is good for killing groups of ants, but it won't take out the entire nest. If ants keep coming back, you might have to address the source of the problem.
Soapy water is a natural insecticide that kills most insects, not just ants. Try it on roaches, too.
4.water and plain white vinegar helps wiping away their scent trails as well.
make an mixture of 50/50 with water and vinegar and spray it on the wall, around the window. It won't smell after it gets dried.
Here was the 4 ways to avoid ants problems. please try and let me know if it worked!!
