There is no recipe from the kitchen today. I am plotting homicide on the yearly invasion of ants. I was hoping the little buggers weren’t going to make an appearance, but I was wrong. It is spring and it is time for the invasion.
I came out this morning they were everywhere on the counters, in the drawers and cabinets, they only place they were not is where the food is!
For quick mass killing,I use Windex window cleaner. The ants don't like being clean and die!!!!
There are several home remedies you can use, such a vinegar and water, cloves, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and lavender. Some swear by the nonchemical natural ways kill ants. The majority of those involve boric acid and either sugar or peanut butter. These are bait killers, since the ants will take the acid back to the nest. To me this takes too long and draws too many. I want instant action!
I will be back with anew recipe for you Wednesday after I have killed, treated, and then scrubbed every inch in the kitchen.
