Pour into it about one tablespoon of sugar and 1\/2 tablespoon of boric acid (which can be purchased at any drugstore).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topsovety.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/scale_1200-2-srednij-razmer-101-500x279-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9443\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topsovety.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/scale_1200-3-srednij-razmer-88-500x280-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9444\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mix thoroughly and pour in hot water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continue mixing until all components are completely dissolved.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topsovety.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/scale_1200-4-srednij-razmer-56.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9445\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let the solution cool, and then place the container directly next to the anthill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sugar will attract the ants, and boric acid will take care of the rest.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topsovety.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/scale_1200-5-srednij-razmer-39.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9446\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After I placed several of these containers in areas where insects congregated, I noticed that they disappeared, completely disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thus, this method can be considered truly effective and proven!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It helped me.
