FYI: Simple Green is a cleaner and melts bugs in real-time (ngl, kinda morbid, watching them contort in obvious agony) β with the added bonus of it being prohibitive to the same returning to the area anytime soon. (Pro-tip, I've found it to still be super effective at dilutions of 1:5-10, and a 5gal jug goes for ~$30.)
Oh, and PSA: many common ant species found in homes are "opportunistic" nesters that will split off from the main community when it suffers sufficient losses... Thereby multiplying the fronts on which your battle is fought as well as streamlining their troop production & resistance. πΆ Just sayin'. Do your research FIRST.
No! That's how we got here in the first place! π±ππ«£
