Mix well Soak balls of cotton (about 1.5 inches in diameter) in the mixture. Allow the balls to dry then place them in places you know the ants travel. I sometimes place them in small plastic containers with holes punched in them so the ant can get in. This treatment takes a few days. In about 3 weeks no more ants. The ants eat the poisoned sugar and take it back to the nest. Sometimes this technique lasts for several years. I must say this technique worked in about 3 days for me. Had ants coming into the kitchen and all over the counter tops. Colt |
