  1. Mortein works perfectly on ant believe me !

    it will work.

    try and check how it works!


  2. well ants,they r pretty irritating.there must be some holes in the room from where they get out .or there must be a dead insect some where in the room may be under the carpet or behind the cupboardor some where or crumbs of some food material.keep u r room clean and tidy.IF U CAN stealthely get a spray from the store.use ur         vaccumcleaner the suck them in if there r some holes or cracks.  

  3. dont leave food out and you can kill them with just a sponge and soapy water...

    they might be coming in from outside (it's hot out there!) and if that is the case, you need to tell your parents because there are special treatments you can buy for the outside perimeter of your house.  

  4. put ant dust where they enter your room. (follow the army lines) you can find ant dust at your local grocery store. I had them in my kitchen and they were gone a day after I put the dust down.

  5. Clear everything out!

    Keep your windows open, and just hope!!

    Kepp food out aswell, good luck!!

  6. USE A FUMIGATOR!! IT WORKS REALLY REALLY WELL!

  7. try to go to  like a hardware store and get a sticky ray trap out some crumbs on there and then they will stick to the rat trap and when your done you can just pick up the rat tap and fold it up and throw it away...

    or

    put some honey out and put some bleach is it they will most likely skil to the honey and they will die b/c of the poisened honey...

    also find where the problem is like if there is something rotting in your room or something b/c this could become something ver serious

  8. Tell your mom before it gets worse. She'll know what to do.

  9. first follow them and find where they are coming from. then use whatever ant poison you want. i also read somewhere that chili powder, used coffee grounds and vinegar are natural repellents which you probably have at home and will allow your mom not to find out.

  10. right you can buy some sort of ant killer from any sort of shop

    tell your mom she wont mind its not your fault

    hope this helps

    x*x

  11. Pick up your dirty food crusted dishes. That should do it.

  12. ok first

    is there food or wet towels

    in your room, if so GET THEM OUT!

    duh and if that isn't it then do what i did and get terro ant killer (in powder form) and put it where they're coming in and outside of where they're coming in, it kills them instantly and its fun to watch the little demons suffer...have fun

  13. really are you serious with this question...have you never heard of bug spray...what is this world coming to when we have to answer questions like this by committee?

  14. You need to get to the source of the problem.  If you eat in your room, then start with a good cleaning.  Remove any pop cans, candy wrappers, snack containers.  Wash down your room thoroughly, and their are many good ant sprays you can spray around windowsills, and baseboards.  Ants just don't happen, something is attracting them so perhaps this will help, I sure hope so.  

    Before considering the use of any bombs best to address this with your parents, trust me they would want to know of the problem and can help you.


  15. get an ant killer from the store

  16. Killing the ants won't stop them ans more will be sure to come.  Ants are in there because of a food source.  Find the food source, and get rid of it.  Do a thurough scrubbing of your room, make sure there isn't anything under your bed or any furniture.

  17. well find out where the ants are comming from and

    sumhow block them like if its a whole i used play

    then sprayed raid over it

  18. Well, I can tell you the stinky Raid stuff doesn't do c**p for ants, even though it says it's made for it.  

    The stuff I got that finally worked was Spectracide Bug Stop.  I got it at Home Depot a while back.  It comes in a clear spray bottle, and there's a lot in it.  

    It is way more powerful than that crappy Raid stuff and it doesn't smell strong at all.  And it seems to work just like it says, like 6 months or so of repellent.  I still have a whole bottle that is unopened because the ants haven't come back after the first and second spraying, which was nearly 9 months ago.

  19. clean and tidy up and find where they might be coming from. take your stuff off the floor. spray some bug spray around especially at thresholds and where the floor meets wall. open a window and leave the room so you dont inhale fumes =]

    come back in a little while maybe 2 hours or so

    and check on the ant problem

  20. sprinkle corn starch on the floor.  The ants will pick it up and return to the home, it will kill them.  

  21. Most likely you have been eating in your room, and have food left in that's why their coming in.   Clean your room and remove all food.

  22. try boric acid or whole cloves. see the link below for more suggestions.

  23. THIS IS WHAT  YOU HAVE TO DO.

    Ok first, in any serious situation im going to ask you call the police, than i want you to quietly build a wall full of your stuff to block off the ant invasion, black any windows or doors, after that the police should be nearing so when they ask you to open the door, politely scream allah. After they run in terror the ants will most likely start breaking threw your block ade so just squish them

    THE END

  24. chalk.

    get a piece of chalk and draw a line, cutting off their usual routes.

  25. ANT POISON TO THE RESCUE!!!!!

  26. This is going to sound crazy but use cinnamon. Apply to the edges of your room and where they are coming from. Ants hate Cinnamon.

  27. Get "Terro" ant killer.  It will be a liquid in a tube.  You put a few drops on cardboard and the ants will take it back to their nest because it is sweet tasting.  It will then kill everyone including the Queen.

  28. You can buy ant poison from Walmart and hardware stores.  Its a clear fluid and comes in a bottle with a specially fitted top that makes pouring easy.

    You take a small container (like a bottle top from a soda bottle) and fill it with ant poison fluid and place it near to the area the ants look for food (or at the hole the ants enter you room).

    The ants are attracted to the fluid and take a sip thinking its food.  Then they return to their nest and feed other ants with the fluid -  and they all die from poisoning...


  29. put a few dishes of cornmeal in all your corners and in your closet....the ants take it "home" and eat it but they cant digest it...they will soon all die.you will just need to vacuum!!

  30. Those scented insecticide or pesticide could work well...  

  31. i had he same proplem go to doller genral and bye you sum any spray and spray it all in your room it works great.
