I am in North Texas DFW. How can I organically get rid of ants?

Ohh use orange essential oil. It works like a charm!! Rub it on cotton balls or on the pots. I've also used cayenne pepper and they moved out of my garden right away.

EcoRaider is an organic friendly to people & pets that cures all creepy crawlers.

I use packaged cornbread mix that says it is sweetened and put it where they are. They will take it to the mound, everyone will eat it and die, they can't digest the cornmeal, but will take it because it is sweetened. Little goes a long way.

I did some research, since we know what works for one person doesn't always work for another. I found this site and it's pretty informative. I know some tips you may not be able to use but there are some good ones also that will hopefully help.

Awww sorry to hear that!! Did you try the pepper and the orange oil?

Ants are so weird. One time I found them inside the freezer in the garage!! What would possess them to go inside a freezer only to die? They must have sent signals back or something ~ there were no ant trails only a freezer full of dead ants. Hasn't happened since.

I put thin line of Ajax w/bleach (brand doesn't matter) on all cracks and perimeter walls outside house. Ants hate crossing the grit.

Inside my home, sponge mopped floor using ajax and sprayed a small bit of ant spray on tile and around baseboards in carpeted rooms. Give it about half hour to dry then mop clean. I clean with my steamer. It didn't harm pets or 5 grandchildren. But you have to them take out to the park for fun while floors dry! I didn't allow anyone to eat anything dropped on the floors!

I did this last year, no ants in home since...really have to watch those cookie crumbs and doggie treats left laying around. Outside took less than an hour. Inside room by room over a couple of days since I am disabled.

The problem I am having is outdoors but thanks.

Diatomaceous earth is ground fossils, so I guess it's organic? I use it all over my house and on pets for fleas, also kills cockroaches. Not sure if it's organic though. Here's another website for essential oils. I use tea tree oil alot. God bless!

I used the mix of borax, sugar and water and the ants along with the hills have disappeared.

Hi there, this article should help. They have a whole bunch of tips you can try - https://www.familyhandyman.com/pest-control/how-to-get-rid-of-ants/view-all/

If you see ants, wipe them up with a solution of 50-50 vinegar and water, or straight vinegar. White vinegar kills ants and also repels them. If you have an ant problem, try using diluted vinegar to clean hard surfaces, including floors and countertops, throughout your home.
