beenvironmentally correct, liberally sprinkle malt o meal around your
veggies. The ants eat the malt o meal and it swells them up; and they
die. The aunts aren’t eating your plants, they’re eating your blooms
and new growth, the young tender tasty stuff. Hope this helps.
Another way of keeping ants off counter tops, getting into home, on the
floor is to spray or wipe areas with white vinegar.. Easy and the ants
don’t like goning where you have used vinegar.
