What Chemical Do I Spray On A Ginger Bread House To Keep Ants Away??

Question

I have a giner bread house thing, whats that chemical you spray to keep ants away, is it hairspary??

Answer 1

Why are you making a gingerbread house in the middle of august?

Answer 2

Nothing if you plan to eat it

Answer 3

a circle of chalk, it's weird but ants won't pass a chalk line.

Answer 4

If you don't plan on eating it spray away with anything. If you plan on nibbling a bit use cinnamon, ants hate that spice and will stay away and it won't be as poisonous as the sprays. Merry August Xmas!

Answer 5

Polyurethane.  It will seal it up completely.  Don't forget to spray the bottom. I made some for X-Mas gifts one year and all the recipients did it.

DON'T do this if there are children

Answer 6

Hairspray would attract bugs, why not just spray it with bug repellent! As long as you don't plan on eating it that is!
