How to Prepare:
Mix the baking soda and icing sugar together, then slowly add water until it forms a thick paste.
How to Use:
Place small dishes of this paste near the ants’ entry points or trails in your home. The icing sugar acts as a sweet lure that attracts the ants.
How It Works
When ants consume the paste, the baking soda reacts with the acids in their digestive systems, producing carbon dioxide gas. Ants cannot release this gas, which eventually leads to their death. This method is subtle and effective, and because it uses natural ingredients, it’s safe for your family and pets.
