Salt has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for pest control. It is a readily available and inexpensive alternative to chemical pesticides. Salt has been found to be effective in controlling a wide range of pests, including slugs, snails, ants, and even some types of weeds.
Salt works generally by dehydrating the pests, causing them to die.
While salt is an effective pest control method, it is important to use it in moderation. Excessive use of salt can harm plants, the soil and can lead to corrosion of property.
Here are the best ways to use salt for pest control.
1. Ants.
There are several ways you can use salt to get rid of ants.
One of the simplest is to just mix a few tablespoons of regular salt with a bit of boiling water.
Allow the mixture to cool enough so that you can pour it into a spray bottle, then apply the mixture to the ant-infested areas of your house.
You can also use salt for ants that are infesting your lawn outside.
Just directly dump the salty boiling water onto any ant hills or mounds you find.
The good news about this method is that it will kill any ants that happen to be in the nest immediately.
The bad news is that it probably won’t kill all of them.
That’s because some ants have deep and complex underground tunnels - no matter how much boiling water and salt mixture you whip up and pour onto the mound, you’re probably not going to be able to get to the entire colony.
You never know though, and its effectiveness all depends on the size of the ant nest.
Plus, you’ll get some - so it’s worth a try!
