squeeze lemon to get rid of ants

You can also rub a 1/2 lemon on the doorstep and the bottom of the windows. And it also works with lemon peels.

To extend its action, dilute the juice of a lemon in water and water their usual places of passage. Check out the trick here.

2. Diatomaceous earth

spread diatomaceous earth over the passage of ants

Ants hate putting their feet in diatomaceous earth because it is super absorbent. It is a natural anti-ant! Why ?

Because the earth absorbs the bodily fluids that protect the ants and they hate it. They will therefore no longer go through this.

For this repellent to be effective, sprinkle diatomaceous earth on the usual path of ants.

Also remember to put it along the floor joints or cracks in which they hide.

In places where it is possible, for example in the attic and the cellar, leave the powder visible.

Be aware that surfaces treated with this natural powder must be dry for it to work.

3. Diatomaceous earth + water

diatomaceous earth pour into anthill

To get rid of an anthill that has set up too close to you, diatomaceous earth is also effective. To make a powerful ant control product, it's easy.

Mix 2 tablespoons of diatomaceous earth in 1/4 glass of water.

Then pour this mixture directly into the anthill.

This liquid will spread in the anthill and as it dries, it will have the same drying and abrasive effects as indicated above.

4. White vinegar

diluted vinegar against natural ant

Dilute white vinegar in water, and spray patios or paved walkways with this mixture and a sprayer.

Ants hate this smell, so they won't pass that way again.

Since vinegar is also an excellent weedkiller, you kill two birds with one stone by removing the weeds that grow between the tiles.

Be careful not to spill the vinegar on your flower borders.
