How to Get Rid of Ants!

[Sandy61]

Don't bother getting the Raid ant baits. They did not work for us. I think I will try to find the liquid Terro everyone likes (not at our Walmart). Many years ago they put arsenic in Terro and it was the most fantastic product ever. Too bad they don't do that anymore!

borax and sugar. The sugar attracts them and the Borax kills them. We put it in bottle caps and set in far corners, and we sprinkle it around the outside of the house.

I tried every home remedy that I could find. Ants kept reinvading my kitchen. I finally gave up and bought Raid Max (Indoor/Outdoor). I went around the outside of my house near the kitchen with it. The number of ants was less. I finally gave up and did the inside of the kitchen with it. I went back with a good cleaner and cleaned the counters, floors and cabinets a couple times before putting food back.

No ants since. The bottle says it lasts for a year.
