Feedback
I do not touch ants in the forest, but in the garden I destroy them with the help of salt. Once I read that boiling water helps to get rid of them. Ordinary boiling water did not help me, but salted saved. I'm waiting for the evening to come and the insects will go to the nest. Then I prepare a strong saline solution, bring it to a boil and pour it on pests. But for trees this method is not suitable. Get rid of ants on a cherry helps wrapping the barrel with polyethylene, on top of birch tar.

Salt against ants in the garden is used as follows:
- A thin path of sweet water pours from the anthill. When the ants start running towards bait, they are sprinkled with the product or trampled underfoot. The next day, the procedure is repeated.
- Hot salt water is poured into the spray gun and sprayed onto the pests.
- The ant nest is covered with salt.
If you can’t destroy the insects with these methods, then you should try apply other folk remedies in the garden, store poison or seek the services of a special service. And sometimes you shouldn’t do harm to ants. If their number is small, then it is better fight aphids.
