Ants are scared by strong smells, so you can safely use parsley, mustard, anise, laurel. Leaves of fragrant plants are left on ant paths, tree trunks are tied with them. Ants, having sensed an unpleasant aroma, will quickly go to another place.

Ant paths and mounds can be sprinkled with soda or treated with ash mixed in equal parts with tree bark and lime.

Alternatively, you can mix 1 part oregano with two parts sulfur and sprinkle it on the ant nests, dig the mixture into the soil.
