The ants on the site are not the neighbors that the vast majority of summer residents want to see. Getting rid of annoying babies can be challenging. The sad practice is that in the vast majority of cases this will require very drastic measures.

The best remedy in this area remains the proven ammonia.
The method is truly "old-fashioned". Experienced summer residents have been using it for more than a decade. The main advantage of the method is that it does not have and does not have negative consequences for cultivated plants. For some crops, ammonia is a good bait! It improves growth and development, and repels a number of other insect pests that can damage the root system.

The prepared solution must be poured into the anthill. It is advisable to do this so that water passes through all channels.
