(개미의 나홀로퇴치법) -집안에 있는 개미들은 사람들을 물기도 하고 음식물에 들어가기도 합니다. 개미가 싫어하는 것들은 다음과 같습니다.
- 소금, 붕산과 설탕의 혼합물, 박하나무, &#-9;관중&#-9;이라는 나무, 흰 분필등이 있습니다. 소금이나 붕산+설탕혼합물, 흰 분필 등은 개미가 잘 다니는 길목을 알아두셨다가 뿌리면 그 길목에는 개미가 다니지 않게 됩니다.
박하나무와 관중나무는 개미가 싫어하는 식물입니다. 그 중 관중나무는 예로부터 우리의조상들이 이 나무를 심으면 집에 개미가 사라진다고 해서 심기를 꺼려했던 나무입니다.(우리 조상들은 집에 개미가 있으면 부가 들어온다여겼습니다.)
(약으로 퇴치하기) 약국에 가시면 뿌리는 약과 붙이는 약 등 여러가지 약들은 판매하고 있습니다. 위에 제시된 나홀로 퇴치하기 방법을 쓰셔도 좋지만 약을 쓰는 방법과 병행하시면 좀 더 효과적으로 개미를 없앨 수 있습니다.
(집 환경 바꾸기) 개미가 많은 집에는 공통점이 있습니다.
1. 집주인이 군것질을 많이 한다. 2. 집에서 식물을 기른다.
집에서 군것질을 많이 하면 아무래도 빵가루나 과자가루 등이 바닥에 떨어져 있기 쉽습니다. 개미를 없애는 것도 중요하지만 개미가 아예 생기지 않도록 철저하게 청결관리를 하시는 것이 중요합니다.
집안 곳곳에 개미가 돌아다녀 신경쓰일 때가 있다. 드물긴 하지만 개미에게 살갗이 물리면 제법 따갑다. 간단한 개미 퇴치법 몇 가지를 소개하자면 우선 현관문 밖에 박하나무 몇 그루를 심어놓는 게 요령. 또 현관 입구에 고춧가루를 뿌리거나 설탕과 붕산을 반씩 섞어 뿌리는 것도 효과적이다. 개미 구멍을 알고 있는 경우엔 구멍에 끓는 물을 붓거나 석유 몇방울을 떨어뜨리는 것도 한 방법이다.

Diatomaceous Earth
Diatomaceous Earth! This stuff is wonderful and it&#-9;s safe. It is a powder that comes from the skeletons of a class of algae called diatoms. You merely sprinkle the powder where you have seen the ants and its kills them by drying them up. I have even read lately that it is safe for pets to ingest, to kill intestinal parasites (although I don&#-9;t know if I would recommend that just yet). I have used it in my home successfully against ants, and I keep cats, birds, and reptiles, none of which suffered any ill effects from the DE. You can purchase DE at a health food store, natural gardening center, or even one of those large home centers (I recently saw it with the bad pesticides at Lowe&#-9;s).
Ground Cinnamon
I, too, had a problem with ants when I moved into another house. Go to a dollar store and buy some ground cinnamon and put it where you think the ants are coming in. You can even put it on the window sills and it won&#-9;t hurt your kids or pets. Try it. It works.
Catnip
I was investigating herb companions for my garden and came across this tidbit. Basil repels flies and mosquitoes. To deter ants, use catnip. Sprinkle it in their paths.
Borax and Syrup
Try a mix of borax (borateem - in the laundry section) and syrup. Put this mix along places you see the ants.
Insectidical Soap
I like "Safer" Insecticidal Soap. It is a soap based spray (read the label for particulars). Does not contain insecticides but there is a cautionary label. Any Home Base/Depot type store should carry it.
Glue Boards
You can buy glue boards that can be slipped under the stove or furniture. They are inexpensive and nontoxic. But you should put them where children or pets can&#-9;t get at them because they are very sticky!
Mark Entrance "Closed"
The only thing that helped the few times that I had an ant problem was finding out where they were getting in, and nine times out of ten it was a tree branch touching the roof of the house. They get on the roof through the tree, and then use your gutters as an ant expressway to get at the entire perimeter of the house. Check to see if any branches are touching your roof, trim them, and then draw a line around your house with a bottle of lemon scented dish detergent (liquid). It won&#-9;t hurt your plants and ants won&#-9;t cross that line!
Spearmint
The best solution that I can offer you for ants of any kind is to build a border around your house of spearmint plants. I don&#-9;t know why they don&#-9;t like them, but it works. This keeps the little pests away, plus it makes entries smell great!
All-Natural Mix
I use approx. 2/3 c water,1/3 c white vinegar, and 2-3 T dish soap.It works as well as raid to kill ants and it&#-9;s safer for my daughter,pets and myself!
Boric Acid Dispenser
In response to the person with an &#-9;ant&#-9; problem. We live in Bermuda where we have our fair share of bugs. Though we don&#-9;t have anything that bites, like mosquitos or no-see-ums, we do have ants. There is a way to get rid of them without using a toxic spray. Mix half a teaspoon of BORIC ACID powder with some water til dissolved, then add 1 cup sugar and mix together with enough water (preferably hot to help dissolve them both) til it is a runny syrup. I shake them in an old jam jar to mix. Put in a container (again, a used jar is ideal) and put in a piece of paper towel so that it touches the bottom of the jar but comes over the top to touch a wall so that the ants will have access to it. If the mixture gets too thick, just add more water. Keep refilling until the ants stop coming.
The ants will &#-9;suck&#-9; the mixture from the paper towel and take it back to the nest. The Boric Acid will scratch their digestive systems, killing them. At first, it may seem that you are attracting more ants and it could be days or weeks before they stop coming but you will kill the whole nest eventually. The Boric Acid is poisonous so you don&#-9;t want it accessible to children or animals. I put it around the outside of the house to attract them out rather than in, though when we first moved here my kitchen was full of them and the mixture worked in about 2 weeks - that&#-9;s a year ago and I haven&#-9;t had any ants in the kitchen since. They also use it at the Montessori school my 8 year old son goes to because they had to spray Raid everyday (which is not good for anybody).
Another Natural Recipe
Try mixing this up. It works wonders for ants.
1 part active dry yeast 1 part of molasus or honey a little water to thin
The consistency of this mixture should be like paste. Spread onto little two inch square pieces of cardboard and place anywhere you see ants. R-place as needed. It takes about two weeks, but this will get rid of ants.
