Under the veranda ants wound up. Processed places of their accumulation with aerosol. Well, there’s no effect. After a week, the insects trample new paths. Will Delicia help anyone who has already tried?
Pour boiling water into the nest.
She used Delicia both in the country house and in her mother’s private house. The effect is amazing. Good and fast.
Ants attacked seedlings. So I anthill powder Delicia sprinkled and even forgot about the existence of insects. I’ll be harvesting soon.
Ants in the garden gathered to build an ant hill. Millet was poured in that place and after a while there were no insects.
And I'm saving myself with semolina, also not bad.
Delicia is a really good remedy - it helped to get rid of red pests in a matter of days. She made a solution and sprayed them with ant trails.
I decided not to sprinkle the house with powder, but prepared a sweet treat for the ants from it, mixing the poison with jam. Goosebumps ate "cheers". After a couple of days it remains only to sweep them out with a broom.
Spent a couple of treatments with Delicia solution and completely cleaned the house of insects.
