How to get rid of ants

If the task is to completely clear the area of these insects, you need to start early in the spring. For this, use a product based on the insecticide diazinon.

In the spring, you need to inspect the area. As soon as insect nests are found, they need to be treated with an insecticide. In addition, you need to spray the boundaries of the area with a spray.

Action must be taken in March-April, because at this stage the ants are still weak after wintering.

From folk remedies, summer residents use tobacco dust. They sprinkle it on anthills, and the insects themselves leave.
