Now you know how to get rid of ants with baking soda!
It's still better than having ants all over the house and garden!
Unlike commercial chemicals, the advantage of this grandma's stuff is that it is 100% natural.
Bicarbonate is a formidable trap for ants.
But there is no risk to your health, that of your family or your animals.
Be aware that you can't use anything other than icing sugar, otherwise it won't work.
Even powdered sugar won't work.
Ants will be attracted to sugar. They will eat it on the spot, but also bring it back to the anthill to feed the others.
Icing sugar and baking soda have a similar grain size.
Once mixed together, ants cannot tell the difference between the two.
As a result, by eating the sugar, they also eat the bicarbonate.
Once the ants have ingested the bicarbonate, it will create gas in their stomach.
Unlike humans who can fart, ants cannot eliminate gas, which will cause them to bloat and succumb.
