Making an organic ant repellent: a simple and effective solution for the home and garden

1. Transfer to spray bottle:

• Use a funnel: Place a funnel in the mouth of the spray bottle and carefully pour the mixture into the bottle.

1. Application:

• Target areas: Spray in areas where ants enter your home, such as windowsills, doors and other entry points. In the garden, spray directly onto ant trails and around the perimeter of garden beds.

Additional Tips and Considerations:

• Frequency of application: Depending on the severity of the problem, apply once a day or several times a week.

• Storage: Store in a cool, dark place, shake well before each use.

Advantages of using homemade ant repellent:

• Ecological: Does not contain harmful chemicals.
• Cost effective: Made with inexpensive and easily available ingredients.
• Versatility: It can be used both indoors and outdoors, even in gardens without damaging plants.

Conclusion: Adopting natural solutions is practical and sustainable, providing an effective defense against ants and keeping the home and garden free of harsh chemicals.
