[quote:Anonymous Coward 82957543:MV81MTE3MDA1XzkzODc2NzM3XzlBMTZDNkZB] [quote:Anonymous Coward 74155778:MV81MTE3MDA1XzkzODc1MTQ5XzI0RDdBRTY2] Not too effective [/quote] I live in a forest of ants, every kind, size and color everywhere, with some nests a big as me. Borax did not work as well as I hoped but it did help reduce some large nests in the surrounding area of a few varieties after a few years. I put sugared borax, traps and commercial killer in every corner of the house, on every nest and trail for years and they still kept coming in hoards so thick you could kill a dozen in every step, until I started using bleach to kill and repel them. It also helps to wound them not kill them, that detours new ones, they also do not like vibration, like loud base music or such. Bleach was the only thing that solved my major wasp infestation problem too. I would spray a nest with bee spray and new ones would move right back into the same spot every time until I started using a 50/50 bleach water solution in a pump up high power sprayer so you can get in the hard to reach spots do not have to get close. Bleach is cheap, easy to get and kills bees and ants and keeps them away. [/quote]

It will get rid of not just the ants but the entire colony because this recipe makes the ants feed it to the queen and all the eggs too. It works on other insects as well but they have to be attracted to the sugars.
*Make sure honey bees aren't exposed to this mixture.
100 ml of water
60 grams of Borax
50 ml of corn syrup
100 grams of sugar
Put in a small pot bring to boil, stir until all dissolved into the water and you're done.
Label and store in a plastic liquid container this mix will last for years this way.
You'll only need a few tablespoons of the liquid for a small nest.
When using make sure to put it directly in the ant's trail and on a hard surface so it doesn't soak into anything. They'll all come to that area and literally drink everything up, then go back and feed it to the nest.
Active ingredient: Borax
They'll all die of dehydration in 24-48 hours.
