How to get rid of ANTS [MERGED]

[holdencaulfield]

when the ants digest the baking soda, they explode.

di totoo yan.
gas in an ant's system will just dissipate. if not through its vent, through its spiracles.
san niyo nalaman yang sasabog na yan?

Ang gamit namin sa bahay ay 20:80 mix ng peppermint potpourri:water. Yung peppermint potpourri na binebenta sa SM department store so far ang cheapest kasi. We place it sa maliit na spray bottle, shake well before spraying sa ants (milky yung solution kasi oil will never with water). The ants die just like being sprayed with insecticide pero the solution is safe....kahit malapit ka sa mga kitchen utensils ka magspray, puede. Ang madalas na area kasi namin na pestered by ants ay ang kitchen at preparation area.

It still took at least 3months na gingamit namin yun before mawala ang mga langam sa amin. Spray lang sa ants at sa route nila whenever lalabas sila, what we noticed was that eventually, nagiging maliit na nag worker ants nila (siguro naubos ang mga adult workers kaya mga bata na ang ipapadala) to get food. Then after that mawawala na sila. Minsan babalik pero basta't regular lang namin iniisprayan ng peppermint solution, hindi na sila bumabalik. Its either the queen starved to death or they migrated some place safer.
