DIY spray to eliminate ants: spray and make them disappear in a few minutes

By Vitia

You will surely have come home and noticed a queue of unwanted “guests”, which perhaps point right towards our pantry. We are talking about ants, a problem that if it is not stopped in time, can become a real plague.

Often it is not enough to keep the house clean: it takes little to attract ants, which will take very few to invade and colonize our home.

We almost always resort to industrial repellent products to solve the problem. However, all these products are loaded with chemicals that, although effective, are toxic to us and our pets.

Precisely for this reason, below we suggest an effective DIY spray to eliminate ants naturally. You need:

  • 2 tablespoons witch hazel water
  • 12 drops of mint essential oil
  • 250 ml distilled water
  • a bottle equipped with a spray diffuser (sprayer)

Pour all the ingredients into the spray bottle and shake well to integrate perfectly with each other.

Spray the solution in the corners of the house where ants are present. Ideally, you should spray right along their path, to stop it forever.

Being free of chemicals, you can use this product with absolute peace of mind and without limits. Prepare and apply it immediately to say goodbye to annoying ants.
