How-to & Style
"The best in the world." That's a bold statement, but I've been dealing with ants in my kitchen for many years. I keep my kitchen clean, but if I fail to wash a knife I used for chicken, the ants swarm to it. These bait packets are the best way to eradicate ants. They take the bait back to the colony where the poison kills the queen and other ants. And I should mention the ants that invade my kitchen are protein ants. They love my roast chicken, especially chicken breast meat. Some ants seek sugar rather than protein, so a variation of these packets — such as mixing some of the poison with honey or jelly — might work better for sugar ants.
If you've had any experience with ants, this is the recipe for you. It is All Natural and VERY effective with a great piece of mind you aren't adding chemicals to your garden.
You can also sprinkle coffee grounds in your garden as another ant repellant.

Ants apparently don't like the smell of this solution so they will keep away.
#ants, #howto, #lifehacks,
10 ways you can get in control of ants. Ants in your lawn, ants making big mounds, ants in your veg gardens or around your home. Each of them can be a nightmare when the numbers get too big and hard to ignore.
Each of these methods cost very little money and are surprisingly effective.

We have some organic non-toxic methods and some chemical approaches. Each is effective in its own right.
This video is not sponsored in any way whatsoever. I purchased every single item myself. As an Amazon affiliate, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
1 - Chemical sprays:
Ant Stop (https://amzn.to/3NgDfU8) (I recommended this to dozens of my customers with great feedback!)
Karlsten ant killer (https://amzn.to/3OlFM0A) - used in this video - good value when compared to professional products, however, the Ant stop is literally less than half the cost.
2 - Ant powder:
Zero in ant powder (https://amzn.to/3buy45S). I've personally also used Nippon ant powder (https://amzn.to/3HS2lYe).
Both are good, having used both over the years - if you venture into your local supermarket or budget store you may well find this cheaper.
3 - Ant spray:
"Raid" (https://amzn.to/3OlQUuD). These sprays use similar chemicals found in professional pesticides (sadly no longer available) so its good to see treatments for simply spraying on the spot
4 - Cinnamon:
If you don't need a lot, you will get the very best value on this at your local supermarket typically around £1 a jar (40 grammes usually) - however, you can buy larger-sized quantities online such as this one (https://amzn.to/3A4ELFP) which is the same size as 25 typical jars and works out to around 48p per jar - bargain! Great if you have a lot of mounds to deal with
5 - Diatomaceous earth:
Entopest Diatomaceous earth (https://amzn.to/3NuJ0hi) - What I LOVED about this method was its simplicity. As well as killing ants, it can also be used on cockroaches, bed bugs, booklice, fleas, ticks, red mites, crickets, ants, moths, beetles, casual intruders, and flies. Consider a face mask or dust mask when using this.
6: White vinegar:
Decco 500ml White Vinegar (https://amzn.to/3OoH7E0) - a simple and affordable way to get the ant numbers down! I wouldn't spray directly onto turf as you could stress the turf or even end up killing some of the turf. However, for any bare soil areas, this is an effective way. Use it freely also along runs outside your home, cracks and crevices, and for spraying directly down inside the ant mound.
7: Baking soda (Borax) & Powdered fine sugar:
Arm & Hammer baking soda (https://amzn.to/3bySJ92). Mix with a fine powdered sugar/icing sugar (https://amzn.to/39RWiGP).
8: Flooding
A BRILLIANT method. Simpy flood each mound with water for 15 minutes!.
9: Ant wars
If you have bare soil mounds simply use a shovel and scrape some of the earth from the top and go pop it on top of a different ant mound. All of a sudden you've created a war. The ants in mound 2 think that the new ants are invading their colony so they try to defend it, and their queen. The result is many ants will die, and the mound can no longer grow. Sometimes the mound reduces but in general use a simple sweeping brush to disperse andy newly made ant mounds.
10: Turfsolv
Available on our website here: https://lawnright.co.uk/product/turfsolv/. Turfsolv is an effective organic product that does a lot of good for your lawn. Its function is to provide optimum health and nutrient uptake but it also provides some protection from grub issues within the lawn. I found it sometimes helps control ant numbers too. For best results, you will want to apply to infested ant areas as often as weekly to gradually work on the reduction of ant numbers.
11: Ant bait stations (Bonus tip!)
Using Ant stop bait stations (https://amzn.to/3u3EZtc) (I wasn't able to show these in the video as there was a delay in shopping them to me) - you can control and reduce ant numbers in a very safe manner. The poison inside is kept safely away from pets and children. Note: not all bait stations are as good as each other! Stick to ones with great reviews. These ones from "Ant Stop" appear to work well when you look at customer reviews. I have to agree considering I've used their liquid ant stop product on my own customer lawns.
12: Bonus tip 2 - Brushing or water jetting
At the first sign of an ant mound use your brush to sweep the mound around so it no longer has a chance to form a hard lump on your lawn. You can also use your hosepipe to blast a jet of water at the mound to do the same thing.

#shorts The best and most effective way to get rid of colony of ants is to pour hot water over the colony. This will kill the queen and all the ants together. If you like the video, please like, share, and subscribe. Thanks for watching!

Here's how to get rid of ants in the car using a few household items. While vacuuming will get rid of visible ants, it won't take care of the underlying problem. Ants can hide out in the nooks and crannies of your car without you noticing.
If you would prefer not to use a commercial ant killer, you can make your own spray with natural ingredients. Mix an essential oil with a bit of soap and water and spray around your car. Ants tend to steer clear of strong odors like lavender, pepper, and mint.

In todays video I show you How To Make HOMEMADE ANT KILLER, using just 2 ingredients, honey and Borax. Borax is quite cheap and you should be able to find it in the laundry or cleaning section of your supermarket or hardware store.
Borax naturally kills ants by interfering with their digestive system. This slow kill allows time for the worker ants to consume the bait and head back to their nest to share it with the rest of the colony and the queen. It may take a few applications to totally rid yourself of ants.
This budget ant killer is very effective, give it a try!

I've always had problems with ant hills in the cracks of my driveway. In the past i would spray them with commercial ant killer. It worked ok, but the ants usually came back within a week - and the spray cost around $20.
With this new method - liquid dish soap and boiling/hot water - it works better, cost a lot less, safe for kids and pets, and can be easily sprayed multiple times. Plus i'm spraying down a lot more volume of liquid to help get in deep and hopefully kill the queen.
