Tuesday's Tip - Ants

Check it Out!  It is ant season and if your like most of us, you have to battle them in some area of the home.  Commercial ant sprays are expensive and if ya have pets and kids, dangerous!

I have always used vinegar/hot water to kill fire ant beds in my yard, something my mom taught me and ants hate vinegar.  They also hate cinnamon, lemon juice, chili powder, cloves, salt and petroleum jelly. 

Here are a couple of other things that ants don't like:
*Cucumbers
*Talcum Powder
*Borax
*Mint
*Cloves
*Coffee Grinds
