Peppermint does it

[Frog Dan]

Hi,
Have you tried Peppermint Soap?. Ants hate Peppermint. I live in the USA and
we have a product called Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps (Pure-Castile Soap). You
may have the products where you are. Check out their website
www.drbronner.com

Here is a tip that was in one of the magazines I read where I found out
about the product.....................
>?Kill Ants with Soap
>Got ants in your pants? Nothing works like Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Soap,
which uses a potent peppermint oil that ants
>just can't handle. Mix three tablespoons with 16 ounces of water in a spray
bottle and squirt it right on the little buggers.
>After a few entertaining seconds of writhing agony, they'll be dead. To
take out a whole colony, add one cup to a bucket of
>boiling water and pour directly on the hill.

Good luck,
Dan
