Thε Girl Nεxt Door♥ asked:
No ant traps because we have dogs, which can be harmless. So, what is a natural way to get rid of these ants that have been coming into our house from a little crack? Thanks in advance!
I meant to say harmful not harmless.

Basil leaves in front of all the doors and windows will keep them out.
Here are the specifics of the recipe. Follow them closely, because if it’s too strong then the scout ants will croak before they have a chance to deliver your goods to the mothership.
2 tablespoons Sugar
2 tablespoons Peanut Butter
1 tablespoon Boric Acid
(The Boric Acid is a white powder which you can find in any local Hardware store… it’s nothing too powerful, but don’t put it where pets and kids can easily reach it.)
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with a disposable spoon or knife. Then cut up a couple of straws into about 3 pieces each. Pack them halfway with the mixture- this allows you to handle them easily and allows you to place them in areas where your child or pet is less likely to find them.
Place the straws near where you see the ant trail- try to follow it until you get as close to their point of entry, because there’s no reason to invite them further into your home. You will probably need to replace the straws after a day or two. By then you will probably not see many, if any, live ants showing up. If you notice that none of the ants are making it more than a foot away from your mixture, then you probably overdid it with the Boric Acid… just reduce the amount and try again.
It can be frustrating to think of having to tolerate them for the 48-72 hours it takes for the queen to eat her poison, but the only way to effectively rid yourself of ants is to destroy the entire colony.
stomp! stomp! stomp! sounds perty natural to me! haha
Squash them.
Or get a cat.
An exterminator once told me the flea powder gets rid of ants, just sprinkle it around the edges of the house and near cracks, I assume its safe for dogs since they use it. We also had dogs when the exterminator came.
Seal up the crack.
Caulk may work or some kind of putty.
your thumb is the cheapest way to get rid of them.
You should fill the crack up with concrete or something. Or, you could use sprays but that would take forever. Do you know those traps that have poisonous food in them? Get that and put it under a vase or something in front of the crack. That way, your dogs cant get them.
put cayenne pepper in the crack and around the foundation of the house to prevent them entering. if you find the ant hill, a couple kettle full of boiling water, will do the trick in exterminating them.
Use Sevin dust it wont harm your dogs and actually you can sprinkle it on your dogs to prevent fleas
