Hawaii is a paradise, right? The bad, part 3



3. Ants


These buggers are EVERYWHERE. I have to admit that I haven't been doing a great job of using ant killing products because the idea of spraying poison in my kitchen near all of my food is not very pleasant. And honestly they don't bother me that much, but it is pretty annoying to clean my kitchen and then come back an hour later to find ants crawling all over the counter...

We have loads of ants here too during the warmer months. I have been leaving whole bay leaves about on the floor which seems to help.

In SC we have a lot of problems with ants. Try this: after you clean your counters, whipe them down in undiluted white vinagar. they do not like the smell. If you do use bug spray, if you spray UNDER the house and AROUND the house, it will help a create a barrier around the house.
