The ants will flee and the garden will not have to be treated with chemicals during the height of the season.

You can prepare an environmentally friendly product at home and use it yourself against annoying insects.

Some gardeners believe that ants do not harm the garden. In fact, this is not true. Firstly, the insects serve as "transport" for aphids.

Secondly, ants participate in the destruction of trees, turning strong wood into dust. Therefore, experienced gardeners do not ask themselves whether it is worth getting rid of insects.

"Killer" mixture

It is irrational to use chemicals: expensive, harmful to soil and health. It is much easier to get rid of insects in another way.

First, you need to prepare a mixture of sugar, honey and water. The resulting solution is poured over a handful of dry yeast and mixed to form a thick paste.

The resulting mixture is placed in matchboxes, which are laid out near anthills or other places where there is a high concentration of insects.

The authors of the trick claim that the ants really don’t like the smell of the mixture, so they will definitely leave the garden.
