Factors such as heat and humidity are what lead to the appearance of these annoying insects, as they invade our homes and even our food. Therefore, urgent measures must be taken to&nbsp;<strong>eliminate ants from the home.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/razafolklorica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/3-Remedios-naturales-para-eliminar-las-hormigas-del-hogar.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23951\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we know, ants come to stay in our home, if we don&#8217;t do anything to prevent it. They adapt quickly in the corners where they\u00a0build their nests\u00a0without us being able to notice it, so once they appear they are difficult to lay them down in their entirety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best decision is prevention, so below we will see&nbsp;<strong>3 natural methods to eliminate ants from the home:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1)_Canela\">1) Cinnamon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One quality of ants that at the same time becomes a risk to them is that they have a good sense of smell. Therefore, the smell of cinnamon is somewhat unpleasant and will serve to exterminate them. Let&#8217;s see how to do it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Add half a teaspoon of cinnamon oil to a cup of water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then we soak a cotton ball and use it to pass it in the areas where the ants live.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We repeat the procedure again until we observe that they have disappeared.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Another option is to place whole cinnamon sticks outside, near the door or windows.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2)_Vinagre\">2) Vinegar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start by adding 1 cup of water and vinegar in a spray container, in equal parts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then we add fragrance oil such as lemon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, shake the container well before use and spray on the ants&#8217; access points.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At least once a day you have to spray these areas where the ants walk until they are gone for good.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3)_Borax\">3) Borax<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is a mineral that is used for most pesticides, we can get it in powder or crystal salt that is colorless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>First, place 1 cup of warm water, half a cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons of borax in a bowl.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then dip a little cotton in the mixture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next step, we apply this mixture where we see how the doors, where the ants enter or in corners where they stay.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional tricks:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A trick is to put baking soda in the trash, we know well that the climate enhances odors and they call all kinds of insects like ants. Baking soda gives it a harmful effect and scares them away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also take a cotton ball soaked in an essential oil and we can place it at the bottom of the trash before placing the waste bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For such small ants, it is very easy for them to sneak into the house through cracks, cracks and any access, no matter how impossible it may seem. So, just use silicone or plaster to seal the holes and entrances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially the cracks and minimal spaces in the kitchen, it is there where you have to be vigilant so that they do not settle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the pests that invade our home and especially in summer, are ants.
