Ants are my biggest pet peeve right now... Ugh go back to your outside land little critters, I'm tired of this war of…

Following! We're having an ant problem too. It's ridiculous I keep everything clean, don't leave food out, etc.

They actually sell sprays now in the hardware stores that are safe to use around pets and children. It's a more safer and natural brand

@emily526 they're such a bother, especially during the summer months!

Buy the little ant bombs they're cheap on eBay.. The ants will take the syrup back to the nest and it will kill the whole colony..

I also put down baby powder and cinnamon along my porch. Keeps them away as they hate it

@itsmely I'll have to check out some places and see what I find, the few stores around here dont have much for natural safe sprays, thanks for the info though!

@familygrown We just moved into an older house so I'm thinking they're coming in through cracks by the windows. But I don't know why they can't just go outside!

@kerryy23 nifty! Hmm I've definitely got some baby powder. I tryed a lemon sprat around the kittys food dishes, it worked for about 2 days, then I redid the process and the ants still came back

@emily526 right!?! Its not like theres no room for them out there 😅 maybe they like our ac, and tvs/music and can't afford a cable line in the antdomes 😂

@familygrown LMAO! We had an issue with these little moths too, not a ton of them but occasionally I'd see one flying around. My husband figured out they were coming in at night because of the lights being on, but I don't think ants have that same instinct. We're two city people who just moved to the county and have no idea what we're doing 😂

@emily526 thats ok! Bugs will find their way reguardless human knowledge 😂 also I was so into the convos about ants that I just boiled all of the water out if my noodles (facepalm*) <- I don't have that emoji

@monavidaa right on! Ill give it a whirl! I know ours are probably coming through the floorboards because of how this old place is set up

@familygrown 😂😂😂 been there done that. Thank God my husband doesn't expect much when I cook lol

@emily526 😂😂 I let my husband take over the cooking most of the time, I think it makes him feel good, but he's always impressed when I take over the reigns... Probably because I'm a huge fan of using spices/herbs... Good thing I'm the only one eatting these though, some of them got a little crunchy 😂😌

🙌🏻 Best thing to use 😊

@honeyxxbee aww damn thats quite the bummer!!! Sorry to hear that your good stash was infiltrated! :(

@amberjacq oh cool! We'll get a few of those as soon as payday hits then! Thank you!

@monavidaa, 😊☺️💓

@familygrown, You’re welcome!! 😊 I hope it helps you as much as it’s helped me!

@familygrown My husband is definitely the chef in the family. He cooks every night with the exception of weekends when I attempt to make something passable.

We use cornmeal

Ive used peppermint oil an clove on my baseboards an windowsill
