Pest Control: Eliminating Sugar Ants
Description: Tips for ridding your home of sugar ants.
Tip #1: If you have a problem with sugar ants, a mixture of half vinegar half water sprayed on the ants will eliminate them instantly.
Tip #2:The VERY best product I have used for many years is ANT
TERRO. They now have the little plastic "death traps" but are a little hard
to find so I order from their website. This is the ONLY product I have
found to work consistently and have recommended it to many people. Even
mailed some to my daughter when she had the problem in her kitchen and
laundry room. I had tried every other product on the market!!...Peggy
Tip #3: Definitely, use the Terro outside. If you place it in your
house, the ants come in towards the scent. Then you will have
thousands! Clean all foods from countertops, floors, etc. and do not use any
soaps in the kitchen that contain a fruity scent (apple, orange, etc).
Also, clean where kids sit and play. (I have found all kinds of food
stuff under my couch.) This lures ants in. Place your Terro a few places
around the house and that should pretty much keep them from coming
indoors...Kathy
