CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Tips on how to eliminate ants at home (why there are ants at home)

1. What are some household tips for killing ants?

Here are some tips

The first method: sprinkle corn flour. Corn flour is the cornmeal that we usually buy. It is flour made from corn. I believe many people have it at home. In fact, this is a good material for killing ants. The method is also very simple. Just sprinkle a little cornmeal in places where ants often appear.

The second method: put mothballs. I believe everyone has mothballs at home. Mothballs can prevent insects. Usually, you have to put a few under the bed in the closet. Camphor is not very toxic, but the smell is very strong. For small insects like ants,

The third method: spray cinnamon water. Cinnamon, as a seasoning, has a strong spice smell, but ants hate this smell very much. We only need to soak cinnamon in water.

2. There are ants all over my house. How can I kill them?

There are five ways to eliminate ants at home. Method 1: Celery and coriander: Ants in the kitchen can put vegetables such as celery and coriander in the closet, which can effectively drive away ants. Method 2: Walnut leaves or peppercorns: You can also put some walnut leaves or peppercorns in places where ants often come and go, which can play a role in repelling ants. Method 3: Eggshell powder: Use several eggshells to bake them yellow and roll them together into powder. Find the place where ants often come and disperse them. Feed them to death, and then you don’t have to worry about ants. Method 4: Insecticide: You can use a variety of insecticides that kill cockroaches and mosquitoes to spray and kill worker ants. Method 5: Poison bait: You can buy a kind of bait that has no evasive effect on ants and is suitable for the mouth of ants. It can poison the queen bee, queen bee and newborn larvae in the hive and kill them completely.

3. How to get rid of ants at home?

Specific methods to get rid of ants at home:

1. Sprinkle chili powder, garlic powder, borax or mint leaves on the places where ants often appear. 2. Apply soap or white resin on the holes where ants often appear.

3. Add 250cc of hot water, 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder (or replace with borax or camphor oil) into a spray bottle, mix well, and install the nozzle before use.

4. There is a good thing to prevent ants - prickly heat powder. Sprinkle some prickly heat powder on the garbage dump or table legs, and ants will not come near.

5. Buy some "magic chalk" at a 10-yuan store or night market, and draw where the ants will appear. The ants will not cross the line, so if there are ants coming in from the window, just draw a whole circle on the window frame (make sure it is complete without any gaps). This kind of chalk is very effective against ants, just like an elementary school student drawing a sphere of influence. It is easy to use, but it seems to have no effect on cockroaches. You can try it. We use this at home and the effect is really amazing.

6. First clean the area. You can use bitter tea powder soaked in water to wipe the floor, and then use orange essential oil diluted with water so that ants and cockroaches dare not come out. How to eliminate ants? There are often ants on the walls and wooden boards at home, and insecticide cannot eliminate them. To understand that ants are bound to be active in spring, first check where the ants are, buy formalin (chemical medicine, do not touch your hands), extract it with a syringe and inject it into the hole, and it will kill them. If you have flowers and grass at home, the impurities on the soil may ferment and breed aphids. Since ants like to eat aphid secretions, they will inevitably gather together; or there is often a smell of food, which is also easy to attract, so you should pay attention. The newspapers piled up in the house or the clothes that are not often worn are easily used as egg-laying sites by yellow ants. Once they breed, they are very scary and should be burned immediately. The smell of anticides is easy to dissipate, and the effect is not long before the ants are active again. How to kill ants at home Ants are very smart, and we can use their intelligence: when you find ants infested, you can pour boiling water on them, or spray insecticide to kill these ants. The ants that are not killed feel dangerous, and they will quickly move with the bodies of their companions, and then disappear. I conquered the ants that entered the room and balcony in this way, and the effect is very good. You may as well try it.

Supplement: Ants are divided into many groups. If one group is driven away, another group that has not received the information will come, forming a situation of "killing them and then they come again", so it is necessary to kill them repeatedly to be effective. Buy a red-eared slider and let it roam in the kitchen. Ants are very afraid of its smell.

The earthy method of killing ants: Put egg shells on the stove and roast them until they are yellow, but not burnt, then grind them into powder and sprinkle them in places where ants often come and go. Because ants love to eat this kind of powder, they will be bloated (poisoned) to death after eating it. Soak 50-60 grams of tobacco or tobacco bone powder in 500-600 grams of water for 2 days, and sprinkle the filtrate in the place where ants are infested. The ants will hide when they smell the smoke. Sprinkle it for 2 consecutive days, and the ants will no longer appear. Grind fir charcoal into powder and sprinkle it on the legs of the table or cupboard, and the ants will not dare to climb onto the table or cupboard. Clever way to kill ants: The weather is warm, and the red ants in the house have revived. The way to deal with them is to burn the egg shells with fire until they are slightly burnt, then crush them into powder, mix some white sugar in it, and put them in places where ants often come and go. When the ants eat this thing, they will be killed by the medicine. Leave it for a few more days and you will get rid of these annoying ants. You can also use cornmeal instead of white sugar, you may as well try it. If there are ants hiding in the cracks of the walls at home, you can use rubber bands to solve the problem. Just plug the rubber bands into the cracks and seal them. Ants are afraid of the smell of rubber bands, so they won't come out. Using toothpaste or candle wax to seal the cracks is also very effective. The killing principle of the service network is "kill all". Put the bait on the ant trail so that the ants mistake it for food and drag it into the ant nest. Because the poison is slow, the poisoned ants will not die immediately, but they will pass the poison to other ants, thus achieving the purpose of annihilating the entire nest.

4. What is the most effective way to eliminate small ants in the house?

Powder spraying method: This method can effectively kill ants in crevices or ant nests, and can maintain the ant killing effect for a long time. The operation steps are to spray the crevices where ants hide or move with diatomaceous earth. Diatomaceous earth or insecticide powder can be sprayed alone, or diatomaceous earth and insecticide can be mixed and sprayed. When using, you should avoid inhaling dust or blowing dust into the air.

5. If you have ants at home, here’s a trick to kill them all?

Step/Method 1

Put the eggshells on the stove and roast them until they are yellow, but not burnt. Grind them into powder and sprinkle them in places where ants often come and go. This is because ants love to eat this kind of powder and will be bloated (poisoned) to death after eating it.

Step/Method 2

Soak 50-60 grams of tobacco or tobacco powder in 500-600 grams of water for 2 days, and then sprinkle the filtered liquid in places where ants are present. As long as the ants smell the smoke, they will hide away. Sprinkle it for about 2 days in a row, and the ants will not appear again.

Ants are also afraid of the smell of rubber. If you put rubber bands around the legs of a cabinet or table, ants will not dare to climb up.

6. What is the quickest and most effective way to deal with ants at home?

01

washing powder

Detergent has a strong irritating effect on ants. Sprinkle some detergent in places where ants often appear or dissolve the detergent in water. Sprinkle some detergent water in the corners and borders when mopping the floor. This can effectively remove and prevent ants.

02

Sichuan peppercorn

The oily substances emitted by Sichuan peppercorns are irritating to ants. Therefore, placing some Sichuan peppercorns in the corners of cupboards at home can also have a certain ant-proofing effect.

03

cut tobacco

Soak the tobacco in water for 2 to 3 days, take the juice and sprinkle it in places where ants appear. The ants will hide when they smell the smoke. If you sprinkle it for a few days, the ants will disappear.

04

Cold water immersion

Flower pots are the most common place where ants live. Soaking the entire flower pot directly in water will usually drown the ants in it for half an hour, and the ants can be eradicated directly. However, cold water has no effect on ant nests in the corners of the wall.

05

Insecticides

Spray insecticides can kill many insects and are also very effective against ants. When there are ants at home, you can put some food at the entrance of the ant hole, and then spray it with spray insecticide when the ants come to eat. Repeat this several times and the number of ants can be greatly reduced.

06

Detergent

Where ants crawl, find an old towel and pour some detergent on it, then wipe the ant holes and the places where ants enter and exit, so that ants will not appear from that place again. Or you can apply detergent on the ant holes, which can also prevent the growth of ants.

07

Ant killer

You can buy ant killers at many places that sell pesticides. When ants appear in your home, you can spread ant killers in places where ants appear. Repeating the process many times can effectively reduce the damage caused by ants.

08

rubber

Use discarded bicycle inner tubes or rubber gloves, cut them into long rubber strips about 1 cm wide, char them over fire, and then fix them on the legs of food cabinets, door frames, and window frames. This can be very effective in driving away ants.

09

White Vinegar

Sprinkle white vinegar around all entrances and exits inside and outside the house. Since ants secrete a substance called pheromone, which smells like white vinegar, once the ants smell the smell of white vinegar, they will think that this place has been occupied by other ants and will abandon it.

10

eggshell

Burn the eggshells with fire, grind them into powder, and sprinkle them in corners or near ant holes to kill the ants.

7. How to get rid of ants in the home?

Step 1: Observation

1. First, observe the ants and try to find out where they crawled into the kitchen from, which may be through the gaps in the windows, cracks in the walls, or the front door.

2. Pay attention to the tracks of ants. As long as you don't disturb them, you will find that they always follow the same route. If you want to get rid of ants, remember to clean the tracks they must take.

3. Follow the tracks of these ants to find their ant nest, take some orange peels and a cup of warm water, put them in a juicer, mash them and pour them into the ant nest.

Step 2: Cleaning

1. Give all pots and pans a good wash, and any other dirty dishes outside the kitchen, wash those as well. Put anything sweet in the fridge, and make sure your kitchen is clean.

2. Clean the kitchen every day. Any food residue may attract ants, so make sure to keep the kitchen clean and tidy. You can put white vinegar in a spray can and wipe the sink, cabinets and floor with white vinegar regularly to remove the ants' tracks and make the kitchen cleaner.

Step 3: Elimination

1. Prepare borax or boric acid as bait. Add one tablespoon of sugar and one tablespoon of borax (or boric acid) into a bowl, then add appropriate amount of water to make syrup.

2. Take some papers or boards, pour the syrup on them, and place them where ants are present. The ants that find the syrup will eat it and carry it back to the ant nest. Other ants will also eat the syrup.

3. Be sure not to let children or pets at home touch or eat these baits, and remember to wash hands thoroughly immediately after making them.
