Ants help to Aerate the soil. Ants excavate soil grain by grain to create tunnels underground which helps with the aeration of the soil. Ants are Nature’s cleaners. Ants get rid of dead leaves and dead insects. Some ants also feed on nectar produce by flowers and in the process also help in pollinations.
However, sometimes ants take over the garden or house and it is necessary to take effective measures. So, here are 10 very effective ways to get rid of ants and reduce the ant population: Diatomaceous Earth, Corn Meal, Borax, Neem Oil, Soap, Vinegar, Baby Powder, Cinnamon, Chalk, Herbs, and Pickup Dropped Fruit

I don't mind ants along the edges of the yard, away from the garden. The problem is when they make a nest in my mulch, compost pile, or garden beds, which risks me getting bitten, or when they start farming aphids on my plants. Then they have to go

I have been using borax and sugar mix in a bottle with the sprinkle top and just poke the mound a bit to disturbe the little beasts and they carry the mix to their nest and all die young including the queen. All that is left behind is the mound minus the ants. It's cheap and the sugar is plentful. I do equal amounts of borax and sugar, as much as you need, and it stores indefinitly. Vinegar and liquid dish soap together kill weeds in cracks, but don't use around flower beds or on grass. I have been doing this since I first saw it done on KZfaq and IT WORKS. I use Neeum oil or crushed garlic water on ANY bug I see on my herbs or flowers. Jag I told a dear friend of mine who is from India about your channel and she is watching you now as well. She has an adult son who reminds me of you.. he could pass for your brother. LOVE YOUR FOOD !!!

@zulmabontiffe487
@zulmabontiffe487 4 жыл бұрын
@@dariuswidjaja5559 I don't know about that. But the earthrorms are beneficial as they keep the soil healty and loose .... and you can collect them and use them as bait for fishing.Now, any salt will kill the earthrorms as it dehydrates them when you sprinkle salt on them and on sluggs. The sugar and borax combination DOES WORK on ant mounds, just sprinkel the mixture on top and around the mound watch them come out to lnvestigate, they can't taste the borax since it's mixed with the sugar they love . When you come back say the next day, you will find no activity and they are gone. You have to do this on a dry day ( no rain ) I have been doing this for 6yrs.

Put coffee grounds around your plants and house. It will help the plants with nutrition and ants will leave. I do it all the time and it works. If I let the coffee grounds dry I mix it with cinnamon. i have used cinnamon in the house around base boards every where for 2 days then vacuum and it works also even in the garden.

So pretty much you can only get everything at Amazon and Amazon won't sell to me because they insist I already have an account and I need to give them top secret information that I don't have because I have never had an account with Amazon despite their claims to the contrary. So today I went to Walmart, Home depot, three major grocery store chains, ACE hardware and my local health food store and the consensus is that A) Borax is a laundry soap that is no longer made by anyone, 2) Neme oil and Pure Castle soaps are not actual things and do not exist, 3) Diatomaceous Earth is illegal to sell in Florida 4) everyone is out of vinegar and corn meal and for some inexplicable reason, baby powder
