The appearance of ants in an apartment is a real misfortune. They can appear suddenly and at the same time also in large quantities. And if the ants are not bred, they will begin to breed with great speed. Fortunately, there are effective methods to combat house ants.

You will need
- - "Dichlorvos";
- - 50 g of water;
- - 50 g of sugar;
- - a bag of boric acid;
- - honey;
- - jam;
- - yeast;
- - any mixture or liquid from ants.
Instruction manual
1
Try to find the main ant nest. To do this, track where insects most often move. With the help of "Dichlorvos" destroy the uterus located in the nest. Thus, you will destroy the ant house, and the insects will move to another place.
2
If the place where your new residents live is not found, then you will have to resort to more tricky methods - for example, to help the poisoned bait in advance. Having picked up such food, the ant will bring it to its nest, which will lead to the death of both working ants and their females and larvae.
3
Get a bag of boric acid from the pharmacy. Add something tasty to the powder. Moreover, it can be not only products, but even soap or toothpaste. Most ants love protein foods or foods high in carbohydrates - boiled eggs, jam, honey or potatoes.
4
So that the ant does not die immediately, but manages to bring the bait to the nest, do not overdo it with boric acid - it should be a small amount.
5
For a liquid bait, you can prepare a mixture of 50 grams of water, 50 grams of sugar, and 5 grams of boric acid. Add a teaspoon of honey or jam to it. Mix well.
6
Pour the prepared mixture into ordinary jar lids. But note - the bait will thicken within a few days, and the procedure will have to be repeated.
7
If this method did not help you, try making a bait out of yeast. Dilute the yeast with water until liquid slurry is obtained. Add a small amount of honey and jam. Roll up small balls and place them in places where you see ants.
8
There is a stronger way to deal with ants - using chemicals. For this, it is necessary to purchase preparations for fighting ants in the form of mixtures or liquids. Feed the ants in a specific place. After a few days, breed the bait exactly according to the instructions. Place a poisoned treat on the feeding ground.
note
Be careful if you have small children or animals in your home. In this case, in order to avoid sad consequences, it is better to turn to professional pest control.
