Ants, are everywhere this year, I have never had an ant issue before?

Question

It seems like ants are taking over my neighborhood, my home. I have no food out yet I find them all over the counter. I think I found today that they are coming in behind the kitchen sink. I would prefer an oranic way to rid my home of these pests. Who has an organic alternative. My neighbor used baby powder no there are white ants all around.

Answer 1

sorry there really isnt one my friend tryed and failed she got told put sugar down where they come from then they would take the sugar and not come into house try it you might have more luck.

Answer 2

They're coming in because it's hot out side and cool inside your home. And looking for food as well. I would look for cracks, around pipes and your counters and use caulk in the cracks. If nothing else, clean with water and liquid soap around where they're coming in to clean the area really good, then use a spray bottle 1/4 white vinegar and the rest water, mix it up and spray around where they're coming in at and in the cracks. Then put the baby powder down, where you sprayed, so it gets moist and hard. And you shouldn't see them for awhile.
