How does very dilute Simple Green kill ants instantly?

Question

Makes me wonder how toxic/non-toxic it really is! In a very,very dilute spray, drops the little bast-rds in their tracks.

Answer 1

simple green is a very dilute solution.i get all my items thru melaleuca.they have things there that last a few months cause its concentrated,so less money you spend.you'd have to know some one though to get in the company.they nothing but non toxic,enviornmentally safe stuff there.i love it!lemme know i can get you in!

Answer 2

i have no idea what you are talking about

but if u want to get red of the ants you have 2 choices

1- boil some bay levees (laurel levees) and spry it on the ants track,, they wont come back

2 - as ants are very organized creatures, i used to put the crumbs right next to their nest, they stopped paying me a visit!

Answer 3

Wow! I didn't know that either.

Answer 4

Wow!  Does it really?!  I've been looking for something non-toxic to get rid of those invading-creepy-crawlers!  But you bring up an interesting point!  What exactly is in it?  Well, I looked it up on the MSDS sheet and really didn't get an answer.  You can look it up and maybe you'll find something.  Hmmm...But thanks for the tip anyways......Now, where did that ant go?
