Last Updated: 2024/12/23, Ants can be controlled with more than 1000 times of trichlorfon, 1000-1500 times of 50% dichlorvos EC, 2000-3000 times of 80% dichlorvos EC or 0.1% pyrethroid kerosene solvent spray. If you don't want to use the medicine, mix baking soda with powdered sugar and vegetable essential oils, and then

Ants can be controlled with more than 1000 times of trichlorfon, 1000-1500 times of 50% dichlorvos EC, 2000-3000 times of 80% dichlorvos EC or 0.1% pyrethroid kerosene solvent spray. If you don't want to use the medicine, mix baking soda with powdered sugar and plant essential oils, and then sprinkle it where there are ants. Or put smelling things such as orange peel, cucumber peel and garlic in places frequented by ants.

1. Wet cloth wiping

If one or more rows of ants are found, wipe them off with a wet cloth and drown them in a basin filled with detergent water.

2. Washing powder gutter barrier

Because ants will drown as soon as they enter the laundry detergent water, this method can be used to protect certain areas.

3. Flooding

That is, the ant nest is flooded by watering, which is more suitable for ants operating in flowerpots.

4. Chemical control

Dust: inhaled dust such as silicic acid (silica) powder is usually used to make ants die due to lack of water in their bodies.

5. Mixture of permethrin silicate powder

This method is an improvement of the last method, which can shorten the killing time, but you should avoid inhaling powder or inhaling dust into the room.

Chemical spraying around the mouth of the ant nest and on the ant road can directly kill ants, but this method is easy to cause environmental pollution and resistance. At present, the multi-purpose agents are as follows:

90% trichlorfon solution 500-1000 times liquid spray

50% dichlorvos EC or 80% dichlorvos EC 1000-1500 times, 2000-3000 times spray

0.1% pyrethroid kerosene solvent spray, etc.

These methods have good results, quick results, but not complete, not easy to root out, and easy to cause environmental pollution and resistance.
