  • there are ants, black ants, ALL over my house, we are too poor to afford pest control. How do I get rid of these ants?

    OMG, I'm in the same situation you're in. I've sprayed everything you can think of that's safe and nothing works. They're constantly getting into food and although they don't bite - they're literally eating me out of house n home!

easy, just get bug spray, Raid is a very good brand, for a very good price, and make sure you sweep, or clean your house daily. That would help prevent ants from entering your home.

1) package and clean up all food so there is nothing for them to eat 2) get some ant spray and spray the outside of your house around windows doors or wherever they come in 3) look around the yard and see if you can find their nest and spray there Be careful with bug spray it is poison. An adult should do it.

If you can find their trails then sprinkle some brand of household cleanser containing chlorine (Comet or Ajax are good) there. The chlorine will kill the ants dead as you please and will prevent more ants from entering. Sweep the area daily and sprinkle some cleanser again. Do this routine for two or three days. It's worked for me every time. Make sure to keep counter tops clean of any food.

That ortho home defense works great. It's the same stuff the exterminators use. Also in the spring/summer get a fertilizer for the lawn that kills bugs that will help them from coming it. Also there's a lot of great advice on her. You should probably use a comb of methods.
