Say goodbye to ants in your home with this simple trick

Read on ( > ) for instructions:
Recipe:
Prepare the solution: Mix one part borax with three parts sugar. For example, 1 tablespoon borax mixed with 3 tablespoons sugar.
Add water: Gradually add water until the mixture reaches the consistency of syrup—thick enough to stick to the cotton swab or cardboard, but not runny.

Place the bait: Soak cotton balls in the solution or drip the drops onto small pieces of cardboard. Place this bait in areas where ants are active, such as baseboards, near windows, and in kitchen corners.
Wait: the ants are attracted to the sugar and will bring the brown bait back to their colony. Because it doesn’t kill them immediately, they have time to share it with other ants, including the queen. You’ll see a significant decrease in ant activity within a few hours, and the colony should be eliminated within a day or two.
Watch the result: once the queen is killed, new worker ants will no longer arrive, leading to the colony’s eventual demise.
