How To Make Homemade ANT KILLER

[@RockinRobb]

Had terrible infestations at several places in the house. Used the Borax/Honey method and within a couple of days, no more ants! Thanks Greg!

[@whitleytracy7445]

Oh thank god! I have tried ant traps and they seemed the fuel them. Im crossing fingers

[@mrcryptozoic817]

Also works on yellow jackets and bald faced hornets but instead of sugar, use cat food.

[@tomjones2348]

I can't wait to try it.

[@67daltonknox]

A tip to make this even more effective. Put a small piece of cake in the trap so it soaks up some of the mixture. The ants will cart bits off to the nest, and this seems to wipe out the nest completely. To protect other animals, I use a small lidded plastic pot, drill some 1/8inch holes near the bottom, then insert the cake and fluid and screw the top back on. The ants soon find their way in.

[@kittenwiskerz299]

I saw another video just the other day that did exactly that! He used a piece of waffle. Apparently the ants will use the 'solids' to feed the larvae and the liquid for the adults. We have carpenter ants just outside the front door, and I used a yogurt container. Didn't have a drill so just cut some holes near the bottom with a sharp tipped serrated knife. I had a squeeze bottle of sugar and borax solution that I made a year ago (for ants in another area of the house) and it still worked great! (My recipe was 1 part borax to 5 parts sugar and enough water to make a syrupy consistency). Covered containers are a good optiom when you don't want other critters to get into it.

[@ginger6582]

Good advice.

[@vesnakraskovic1817]

You don't need a water. Just borax, sugar and wet biscuit covered with that mixture.

[@peaceful3250]

​@@vesnakraskovic1817 Wouldn't most ants take the sugar and leave the borax?

[@mrmagoo4134]

I agree 100%

[@jessecole7707]

Vicki Gower I agree🙂 I have pets and am very careful to never use in any areas they can access. As for my yard, I used Tero liquid ant bait for outdoors. The ones that have the stake you push in the ground, above ground the unit holds the liquid enclosed in the hard plastic housing, which has a little hole ants can enter, then feed on the bait, which they then take back to the colony and the wicked Queen ant eats and dies. Eventually, depending on the colonies size, also kills off the other ants in the colony. What people don't realize is there can be many many colonies, which are sub colonies, and each colony can also have a lot more than jus 1 Queen. Also, not al ants like sweets, some like protein, while others like fat. Basically 3 types of foods for certain ants. I have researched that this bait as well as ant baits sold in stores, like Tero, Combat, Raid, etc...do not kill carpenter ants, fire ants, and a few other types. Also, it may take up to a month to kill ants indoors. They make colonies inside your walls, and other places. As for outdoor eradication, that too ca take a long time, but if one keeps a fresh supply of the ant bait, does not let it get depleted, make sure that the ants are actually taking the bait. The *borax [*The branded 20 Mule Team is the easiest to find]] mixture needs to have the right ratio and does not become hardened.

[@IamKnucks]

I used this mix last year when tiny ants invaded my kitchen. I cleared out a cabinet and left a bowl full of sugar borax out. In one night it completely wiped out the colony. After 2 weeks of trying other methods I was pretty relieved.

[@FloryJohann]

Did you mix water with it or just dry?

[@dansv1]

I can confirm this works extremely well. I had a persistent ant problem. I mixed up a batch but made the mistake of trying to improve the recipe by adding black strap molasses. The ants wouldn’t touch it, probably because of the sulfur. When I made it with just water, sugar, and borax, the ants ate it and were gone for about a week. I put out more and they haven’t been back.

Occasionally got ants in the kitchen, at first set up ant bait stations of the borax mixture near the areas we saw them. The ants came by droves to lap up the bait and seemed to make the problem worse. The biggest revelation was putting the bait OUTSIDE! That's where the ants were coming from I realized. After baiting the outside the number of ants seen inside dropped immediately to just a few and after three days there were no ants coming in at all.

Excellent idea. I also found that if you put little heaps of ground bran around your garden, it eliminates slugs and snails. Its eco friendly too. They gorge on it until they are full. But as they can't digest it, the bran expands making them too full to move. Soon as its light, birds spot them and enjoy a leisurely breakfast.

[@judithcaple1592]

You mean, like cereal Bran? Thanks for the suggestion

[@PompeyChris71]

@@judithcaple1592 Yes. Its like a ground powder. You can get it in healthfood shops and as its light, you get a lot for your money. Put little piles of it (about a tablespoon full) under leaves or just randomly. I did and the next morning birds were covering my garden. There were empty snail shells by the dozen. Never knew you get so many invaders at once on your garden. Its kind to birds so they come to no harm eating it. Better than slug pellets.

[@benbrice9343]

You can also mix equal parts of sugar and baking soda. You don't need much at all. A quarter cup of each will be plenty. Mix it together really well in a bowl. Then sprinkle a little on one or more saucers and place them wherever you see ant's. It has always worked really well for me. The way it works is the ant's can not distinguish the sugar from baking soda so they take it all. Since they can not digest the baking soda they will die when they eat it. They also take it back to there nest for all the other ant's. If you have pet's like I do it is ideal for keeping your pet's safe but still killing the ant's.

I do that also. I didn't know that borax could be used too, though. The boric acid and sugar hardens sometimes after awhile and I put more water on it.

@@sheri023 I usually add scraps of fresh fruit and meat to the middle of the container to attract both sugar and grease loving ants.

[@sheri023]

That's an idea. Thanks

[@marthajf73]

@@sheri023 it really looks disgusting. I keep adding more tiny pieces as the old ones dry out. I did this in May and it took about 1-2 weeks and there no ants visible anywhere. I threw away my concoction about a week ago. Even though I have store bought ant baits hidden around, they're baaacckkk. Hzve to make up a new batch.

Great tip, I can't wait to try it. I used to use a commercial product from the Supermarket called Neverwrong. But its not longer available. This looks to be much cheaper.

I've been using Borax tablets in my sailboat & i still have ants. I'm going to hive this a try & prayerfully they'll be gone in a week!

[@ramibu239]

They won't eat boron/borax straight. You have to add something sweet to draw them like honey or jelly. Don't even have to water it down like this. Just mix the powder into your sweet substance, then add a little water to make it more into a paste. Then put in a jar lid (or something thing small enough for you to set in a corner & easy enough for ants to crawl in. Learned this from my Danish Grandma who learned it from her father.

@@ramibu239 Thank you. In the past, I've purchased Protexall Ant-Kill (a liquid ant killer), that's supposed to control sweet and grease feeding ants, it has Orthoboric Acid as its Active ingredient & they stopped eating it and would go around it, these ants are smart!! I noticed I now have ant like flying bugs & I'm prayerful 🙏🙏 this will kill thes insects as well. I will make sure I put honey & a touch of oil into the borax & pray 🙏 for the best outcome, No more Ants 👁👍👁!🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜, and wingedant like things! 🙆‍♀️ All the rain we've been having has increased the amount of ants I've noticed in my boat! Ugggh I hate ants inside my boat. I'm OK with them being outside, but not in my boat! Lol! Thank you for your suggestions. I send you a huge 🤗 in advance for all your help❣ PS. I've decided to put 2" of vaseline on my power cord and tape around my moiring lines with vaseline on top to help stop the crawling ants from getting on board. I don't allow stowaways on board!

I live in the tropics and I beat them back chemically from time to time but it doesn't get the queen or nest. I'll try this. Thank you for sharing.

[@w.7194]

I put Dr. Phil on t.v. and the ants all went to the neighbors....problem solved.

[@KC-fl1ek]

😅😅😅😅

[@SunriseLAW]

Infinitely Better: Add some protein to it to kill the queen ants; w/o protein I don't think you get a total kill. Here is my recipe: approx. 1/4 borax. 1/2 sugar 1/4 crushed dry cat/dog food or protein powder. I vigorously stir the sugar and borax with enough hot water to make a slurry. Then I stir in the protein to thicken, stir hard until smooth and silky. IMO sugar works better than honey and is way cheaper.
