Pinterest has a lot
Liquid Dawn, Vinegar, and Baking soda. This has to be sprayed on the plants after the dew has lifted in the morn., and then by night, they will be all gone. J.
The sprayer you will use, depends on the amount of mixture. We do not have a sprayer anymore, so I will use a smaller amount, and use a small container. Best wishes, J.
cup vinegar and 1 cup salt and 1 gal water. Is that the one you want?
I have never used it for ants, but for weeds, I mix 3 cups warm vinegar and 1 cup table salt together until the salt dissolves. Then add 2-3 drops of dishwashing liquid. Put into a spray bottle and squirt directly onto weeds. They will begin to turn brown and die within a couple of days.
