You don't need insecticides or ant traps to ant-proof your kitchen. Just give it the lemon treatment. First squirt some lemon juice on door thresholds and windowsills. Then squeeze lemon juice into any holes or cracks where the ants are getting in.
Stir until combined. For the solid ant bait, mix the borax or boric acid in with powdered sugar (again I used 3/4 C sugar and 1/4 C of borax or boric acid). Stir well to make sure itâs completely mixed. For ants in the kitchen, bathroom, or anywhere else in your home: Go outside and find a trail of ants.or ants in the garden: If you have ants in your garden, do NOT drop the ant bait directly onto the soil ! Borax and boric acid can act as herbicides and may harm your plants! Put the mixtures on tupperware lids and set those in your garden instead.
