We're going to make the best ant killer that there probably is. We're using boric acid, it usually comes in an unmarked white container. You can get it at a pharmacy, in our area you can't get it in a pharmacy anymore, you can only get it in the pest control section at the hardware store. Ace, Home Depot etcetera.


First we mark our containers as "Poison," We even  mark the spoon, so nobody uses this. Using one teaspoon of sugar, table sugar, and one squirt of Hot Shot or boric acid. It's boric acid, no matter what it's called. One squirt of powder. Then a few drops of water. Stir it up real good. You're going to make a paste. If you spill remember it's poison, so you want to make sure you clean it up. It has sugar because the ants are going to crawl from all the neighbors, they're going to turn all your poison you just made covered with black ants, or whatever color ants you have, and they're going to carry it back to the queen.


Therefore, the whole colony will eventually die, but they are going to come from the neighbors, they're going to come from all over, so don't be surprised. It's kind of fun watching it all turn black, when they come and get it. I use a Gatorade lid. A large Gatorade lid or medium, whatever you have. Then I use the spoon I mixed it with and pour a little bit into the Gatorade cap. Some people use an index card or a piece of paper. It's better if it's a paste. Then you just go and put it, I like to put this inside the cabinet where the ants can find it, the pets cannot, and children cannot.


So I put it into the cabinet and close it up. I also put the leftovers in there too, and just leave it. It eventually dries up, and then you have to make another batch or take a screw driver and scrape it off and leave the powder. It actually is more potent then. Keep doing this until they are gone. For my area it is about 3-days, twice a day, morning and afternoon.   

This one would be fine outside, in a place where cats are not going to go and get it. In my video I made it wrong by putting too much water in it. Do not put the paper cup you mix with under the water, put the spoon under the water to catch 2 drops, then pour in and stir to make paste.  

 So I hope that everybody learns from this, and has great success and fun watching all the ants come and get it. I have been using this since 1995. It works!
