    The best way to get rid of ants without using chemicals is to sprinkle, liberally, talcum powder from where they’re coming in to where they stop. When they all run away sweep up the talcum powder, but please be very careful it can be very slippery. So make sure that you wash the floor properly to get rid of all the powder.
    Hope this helps.

    just get rid of suger and if the ants dont have food they will be gone over time this is best and the fastest way to do it

    Soapy water does the trick, they follow each others chemical tracks, soapy water washes it away as well as chemicals

    Spread some turmeric powder around the source of ants.
    They will disappear after some time.

    I woud set up a distraction to lure them into a trap like a trail of syrup so they get stuck…. be prepared to attract them to that spot

    OK. Great question. I have ants just like you do and it drives me insane. They have this brown looking stuff that comes in a tube and you can find it at walmart and target. It is strictly for ants and it doesnt have any kind of fumes or strong odor. I hope it helps and good luck.
