Garden Remedies: Ants
There are several things that make us cringe when we've spent so much time making our gardens beautiful. Ants are one of those things. The ant eats leaves from your garden and carries them back to their nest. If they find that they have easy access to your garden they will continue coming to your garden as often as they can. The damage that ants can do is enormous. Instead of letting these bugs mutilate your garden try sprinkling a little bit of baking soda on the ground where the ants have been demolishing your plants. It might take a few days but they will eventually disappear because baking soda is highly poisonous to them.
By pouring dry cream of wheat on anthills you can kill the colony. As the ant eats these little grains it will expand in their stomach and cause them to explode. Peppermint leaves are also a natural ant repellant . By growing peppermint in your garden you can discourage them form coming around it at all. This is especially good if you have ants that come into your home. By plucking a few leaves and placing them in problem areas, the little insects will find somewhere else to live.
