There are different ways to get rid of ants: millet, semolina, sugar, boric acid.

However, not every remedy is effective against these tenacious invaders of the summer cottage area.

We suggest trying a remedy that does not involve digging up the anthill and pouring boiling water over it.

Boiling water helps, but not if the anthill is located directly on the garden bed - in this case, the root system of the plants can be affected.

You need to take a cultivator and loosen the house with ants several times a day until they move to live in another place.

Please note that it is not recommended to sprinkle the ant repellent if the nest is located in a garden bed.

It is important to remember that ants are the orderlies of the site and therefore you should not remove them if they do not interfere.

If loosening does not help, then you can use insecticides - use only those types that dissolve in water.

You can mix several products and use them as intended – the effectiveness of the action is increased.
