7. Create barriers: Draw a line of defense using substances ants dislike. Spread a line of diatomaceous earth, talcum powder, or chalk near entry points. These create barriers that ants are reluctant to cross.

8. Use vinegar or lemon juice: Ants are repelled by the strong scent of vinegar and lemon juice. Mix equal parts of vinegar or lemon juice with water and spray it along ant trails, entry points, and areas of infestation.

9. Seek professional help: If you’ve tried various methods and still have an ant problem, it’s best to contact a professional pest control service. They can assess the situation and provide targeted solutions.

Remember, consistency is key when implementing these tricks. Regular maintenance and vigilance will help keep ants at bay.
