Procedure
To begin, in a container we mix the boric acid plus the cup of sugar.
Then, we slowly add the hot water and with the help of a spoon we mix until it dissolves well.
Next step, we pour it into the pot with a lid.
Next, we take a cotton swab or pad and dip it in the mixture, then place it on a small plate. Let’s remember, do not put your hands or fingers directly into the mixture.
Once we detect where the ants are passing through the home or where they are settling, we place the plate with the cotton moistened in boric acid there.
We will leave it there for 1 day, it is essential to keep children and pets away from the dish.

Tips and tricks:
Those who have already tried this method with ants assure that between 2 to 3 days the ants disappear completely. Our kitchen will surely be free and clean of these unpleasant insects.
Just as ants love sugary foods, they can’t stand the smell of vinegar. So if we mix it with water in equal parts, we can spray it in the areas where the ants roam and enter the house. Little by little, we will observe that the circulation of ants is decreasing and they will move away from the place, because the strong smell of vinegar will disorient them.
Herbs and spices also help scare away ants, such as mint, bay leaves, garlic and even coffee beans, which serve as natural repellents. By simply spreading them in certain areas of the house, they will help block the passage of ants into our house. In addition, you can prepare bags with bunches of herbs and place them in drawers or corners of the rooms.
