Want to keep ants out of your kitchen? The solution is in the bathroom

It’s an economical and very effective solution. Take note!

During the warmer months, ants become a more common and very annoying problem in most homes. There are many alternatives to products full of chemicals that help keep them away.

Want an example? Nicole Carpenter, the president of the pest prevention service Black Pest, quoted in BestLife, advises using talcum powder.

“Talcum powder effectively absorbs moisture, causing ants to dehydrate and die,” says the expert.

He also explains that the texture of this much-used product can make it difficult for “ants to cross the area, making it difficult for them to move around and access food sources”.

That’s why he advises spreading talcum powder at all entry points.
