ANTI ANT - Homemade Anti Killer

I don't know if you are like me, but I hate ants in the kitchen, they are annoying little creatures, especially when they get into our dishwasher which is not much fun. I can tell you from experience it does not work just putting the dishwasher on ...... :(

This homemade ant poison I found on the Internet, is much cheaper and just as effective as the ones you buy. Strictly not completely additive free as it does have borax in it - but more natural than the bought variety.



Anti Ant Recipe

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp borax

Combine sugar, Borax and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and boil for three minutes. Let it cool completely. It will thicken as it cools. Make sure you thoroughly wash out and rinse your pot really well.

Using the plastic lids from milk containers place it in the effected room or outside where the ants are.

They will find the sticky liquid no matter where it is placed.

The ants eat this and then take it back to their nest.

Before long there will be no more ants :).

Store in clearly labelled container with "DO NOT EAT" so no one mistakes this for syrup as this is poisonous.

Savvy Tip:
Borax can be purchased from Bin Inn and most hardware stores.
