Every Spring the ants start to show up. I’ll first see a couple on my kitchen counter or on the floor below. I’ve searched and searched for a simple, all-natural solution, and I finally found it. The secret is Borax, a 100% natural product found in most ant-control products. You can find it in most supermarkets. Here’s a simple recipe you can use to get rid of ants in your home:

Ingredients:

– 1 cup of warm water
– 1/2 cup of sugar,
– 2 tablespoons of Borax.

Soak the Borax mixture up with cotton balls, and then place the cotton balls near any trails the ants have established in your home.

I’ve tried this recipe at my home, setting out the cotton balls at night and waking up to find dead ants. Works like a charm.
